We got off to a good start in that game, ... We just kind of got too comfortable and let them back in it. Then we were like 'Hey, A&M. Not today.'

If it does, then great. If not, you know, we'll try again. That was a great way to start off the Big 12.

It's a good game tonight and a good start coming back. I started to feel comfortable; I didn't at first. Teammates kept helping me and lifting me up.

It is always a tough game up here, let alone if you give up an 18-point start,

We need to start Game 1 where we finished off Game 70 and not let anything go backward. More than anything, it's my expectation we would do everything we did last year that was possible. But we have to build on that. We have to get better.

What was a very good sign was after our good start we never let up. We really put the pedal down, and that was quite pleasing to see.
