They deserved actually to win that game. But we came up with something they couldn't come up with, so we won it.
I always forget those come from behind wins, but they are so important, knowing they can be behind and still scratch it out and win the game.
Every game is equal in rate to each other. If you lose to Kent State or Carolina, you negate that you beat California. A good win followed by a bad loss negates the good win.
I think this team understands what the Big Ten conference is all about. It's pretty tough to say we're going to win a Big Ten title with Michigan returning but we expect to be in the thick of it.
That's something for you guys to keep track of, not me. If you didn't tell me that, I wouldn't even know it. I'm just trying to win games every time we step on the field.
I'm more concerned with how we perform as opposed to outcome. If we get out of the gate and are doing things well and we end up losing some of those games, that's okay because that's what you build on. If you come out sloppy and win a game, that's going to come back to hurt you.
It's pretty tough to say we're going to go out and win the Big Ten title with Michigan returning. But our aspirations are to battle for a Big Ten title.
The second home run barely got out. The first one was just a question as to whether it would stay fair or foul. It stayed fair. That's gonna happen with the wind blowing out.
We practice them throwing to the bases all the time, and if they don't get it right they have to do the rep over and over and over again. They've gotten to the point where they don't do the reps that many times because they know to throw to the appropriate bases and get the kid out.
