We want to try and embarrass them and beat them by 30. They gave us a pretty good butt kicking. I give them credit, they played well, but we came out with no energy, came out flat, and let them do whatever they wanted to do.

I just said we needed this game. If we win this game, do what we're supposed to do, then this game can get us into the tournament.

We could have gone two ways after that we could have gone in the tank and continued to play sub par. But we took it upon ourselves to talk to each other and try to come out and play better.

That's what we went out there to do today. We went out there to prove that we could play defense.

It was a big win for us and we needed it. Dustin was terrific in the second half and we played much better defensively.

I think it's the biggest win I've had since I've been here. We did everything I think Coach wanted us to do.

Our goal this game was to hold them under 40. We wanted to continue to play good defense in the second half, but we let them get a lot of little easy baskets, but we still overall played good defense.

See that guy, that's the guy who's key for us. When he plays well, we play well.

To go up there the way we did and lay a goose egg like we did up there, it was horrible. We wanted to do it back.
