I was real surprised. The ref said I did it intentionally, but there's no way. That's sad the ref would impact the game like that.

This was a great team effort. We really played smart and guys stepped up.

Man, it feels so good, you don't even know. I've been getting killed here for four years and this is such a tough place to play. I'm just so proud of the guys the way they hung in there and fought.

Coming off last game (an 81-70 loss Thursday night to San Diego State), we didn't really throw it inside as much as we usually do. We wanted to make it a point to go inside out.

I thought we showed a lot of poise as a team. We stayed together when Colorado State made their run at us. The guys hung in there and it's a great win for us.

Every time we made a run, they'd make a shot. It's disappointing to not come out and play hard from the start.
