Very few times do you get to get as many people quality at-bats in a game situation as we have gotten in the last two days. The negatives are you don't want your team to play a sloppy side of baseball and take things for granted, and we've done that as well.
We started slow again tonight, and I don't like that very much. It seems that our intensity doesn't pick up until our backs are to the wall, but this team continues to respond when that happens.
It was good to see our team start to hit the ball up and down the lineup. We knew coming into this series that we would have to score some runs, and this was a good start to the weekend.
You don't want them to be around a bunch of people because then you'll have a whole team infected. But they should be all right.
We've been telling our team for four years that if they'd stick with the plan, we'll be able to play at a high level of baseball. I guess after beating Alabama and Auburn in a week's time, they're finally beginning to believe what we've been saying is the truth.
We got ourselves into some trouble early in the game, but once again these kids showed that they never give up. We have had several of these kinds of games over the last couple of weeks, and this team believes it is going to win every time.
