We have to get her into game shape. She was on crutches last week. I wasn't sure how far I wanted to push. She's not afraid to go to the basket and at that point we needed it.

Aaron Hill was on crutches a week ago, and he came out and won.

The week preceding the game is just as important, if not more important, to prepare yourself mentally to make sure you know the ins and outs of the opposition. It's all about getting ready for Jacksonville. It's a one-game season.

I am sure by the time the game starts later in the week it will be a packed crowd. You have to start winning and get an identity, like Coach Saban says. Once you start doing that, you'll fill that stadium up and it won't be a problem.

That's what me being here was about, to get in game shape. This is really helping me out for my conditioning. Everything down here's been great for me.

Sometimes late in the week, injuries happen. It had no outcome on the game as far as we're concerned. I assume everybody's going by the rules, which I'm sure they were.
