They started getting excited and playing with more enthusiasm. We just put it together. We started playing like the defense I knew we were capable of having.

We played strong defense tonight.

The special teams, the defense played very, very well.

Colin?s a mature freshman now. I was more impressed with his defense in this game.

I'm more interested in arousing enthusiasm in kids than in teaching the facts. The facts may change, but that enthusiasm for exploring the world will remain with them the rest of their lives.

We didn't get rattled by (the dunk) at all. Defense won it for us. The turnovers created a lot of energy, and we play off of energy.
