It helps that we were up there a few weeks ago, when it was loud and wild. We were able to control the tempo and get the win. They like to play up there in the 80s and 90s, so if we can keep it in the 60s or 70s, I think we'll have a good chance.
More Quotes from Rick Scruggs:
Well they're frustrated and I can understand that. We're frustrated. People are asking me around town 'What are you going to do' Well, if I knew that, I'd be writing books and journals, I wouldn't be coaching. If I knew how to snap people out of these doldrums, I'd be making a lot more money. We're doing all we can do right now.Rick Scruggs

Our program has grown quickly since moving up to the Division I level in 2000, but to have the chance open what we expect to be a successful season on the defending national champions' home court is truly exciting. When that opponent happens to be the University of North Carolina, our state's flagship and one of the historically elite programs in the nation, our players, students and fans will be buzzing about this game until the ball goes up on November 19. It doesn't get any bigger for our program, or university, than this.

We tried to schedule some home games out of conference this season, but no schools were willing to come in here to play with the team we have coming back. Porter Arena is a tough place to play. Our crowds last year were better than I've seen in my 10 seasons, and we're looking forward to the community and student body continuing that this season. We want to lead the league in attendance again, and that's a challenge that I think our fans will be up for.

Well, the first question you all are going to ask me is, how did we beat Minnesota and play Carolina so close It's a tale of two teams. Ohio State just took it to us tonight and we didn't have an answer for them. A lot of it had to do with Ohio State .

You're going to have to play the best to get out of there anyway. We'll be tested from the first tip-off. We got ourselves into this by being the fourth seed. Now we'll just have to see what we can do about it.
