Mark Fox Quotes on Night (5 Quotes)

Chad Bell gave us an extreme lift off the bench with energy at the start of the second half. We got the first couple of shots down. We kind of fed off each other. They fed off each other and then the crowd got involved. Then, it was a fun night.

They were just a little hungrier for the ball than we were. I think our players realized we didn't play as well as we have been playing. They understand we have to have a super effort every night.

We came through that about as well as we could have expected. It was the people we played in those situations, Vegas on Tarkanian Night, Vermont on the night they were celebrating, Pacific when they were celebrating and Kansas, the toughest place to play.

Our defense was very good for the first 30 minutes, very good. It's something we weren't very pleased with the other night. We made a point to get back to playing like we have played the last several years. We played very hard defensively. That was a big key.

Well, it's only one night. But to get production from both posts, it certainly helps. In New Mexico State's defense, they are just not as big as we are. We just had two big guys who could finish plays.
