Obviously, all the credit goes to coach Stokes and the guys at ECU. I thought they played a hard-fought, very spirited game. Played exceptionally well.
It's been a good series. Both teams have played well, so I look for a good game on Saturday.
I understand we blew a big lead. But we played at an unbelievably high level to get that lead. You look at our field goal percentage ... I don't know of any team in the country that's going to play that way for 40 minutes.
Hopefully that experience will give our guys confidence. Hopefully it will help that they played against a big-name team and played well.
I thought we really played about as well as we could play in the first half.
