Right from the start, it was obvious that Virginia wanted the game. I just think Virginia wanted the game more than we did.
More Quotes from Al Skinner:
Those were some tough calls. I don't remember us getting the benefit. Even the last play (Rice's drive to the basket), there's contact driving to the basket and that's (no foul). We make contact and it's a foul. Its unfortunate. We played well enough and I thought we would earn the respect of the officials, but maybe it didn'tt work out that way.Al Skinner
I thought we have a veteran club and we made a very big mistake there. We were fortunate to overcome that.
Al Skinner
They put a lot of pressure on us, and we turned the ball over probably a little bit more than we wanted to. But when we were able to get the ball to the areas that we wanted to, we had good looks at the basket. At times they overextended and gave us some good looks, and we were able to put the ball in the basket.

I just thought there were times when we moved the ball tremendously well. When they're focusing on (Smith) too much, then it makes it a little bit easier for everyone else.

Pacific has had a lot of success in this tournament. I thought it was going to be a great challenge for us.
