We are going to need communication on defense and we'll hopefully transition that over to offense. New Mexico is a really good team. We played them well at home earlier in the season and the key to this game is to attack them on defense and shut down some of their key players.

If losing (Thursday) doesn't do it for anyone,I don't know what will.

We want to finish strong for the seniors and make something positive out of this season. We don't have anything to lose. We just need to play that way.

On paper, I'm sure everyone thinks this year has been terrible. But our seniors meant so much to this team. It's so sad to see them go. We just need to keep building.

They (Aztecs) are looking forward to playing against us, and you can't blame them. Really, at this point in the season it doesn't matter who we are playing. Any team we play is going to be tough.

I think we're ready to play.
