You know, we have to learn to button it up, to be quiet and just play basketball. The refs seemed to be looking for things a little, though, but it is up to us to keep our mouths shut.
More Quotes from Fred Skrocki:

There's always pressure that way, with the alumni who played here. That's a given coming in. That has not affected us. I think all teams are different. The last time we were up here in 2001, you can't compare. Each team brings a different personality. I just don't get into that. Each one is different for me.

I've been here for 24 years. I've been up there when we beat Perry in '91, when they had a team with Will Macon and Eddie Benton that was almost like us. We had a team that was determined. I tell the guys, 'This is two of the best going at each other, and they're not afraid of your ranking or your record.' They realize the importance. With one team moving on and the other going home, it raises the stakes.
