Larry Davis Game Quotations

Obviously this is a great victory. Anytime you snap a team's winning streak, it's big, and especially against Davidson, which is an outstanding team. I'm just happy for our players. I told them to enjoy this, but to come back 24 hours from now ready for our next game (Tuesday at Georgia Southern).

We didn't have the intensity level we needed. Early in the game we kept giving them second shots. They'd convert on them, and that broke our back a little bit, then we'd come down and couldn't convert on a couple of shots we had. It snowballs a little bit. You get a little frustrated, and Davidson gets a little confident, and all of a sudden it's easy to chuck up those three's and make them.

To say the College of Charleston game is any bigger than any of the rest we have left is a hype statement. Every one of them down the stretch matters.

No team has ever won it playing on four consecutive days. Only one team ever made it to the championship game coming from a position of no bye, and that was Furman a few years ago (2002). Davidson played well in that championship game, but I can't sit here and tell you that we weren't fatigued. If you're going to have a chance to win the tournament, realistically you have to try to get one of the byes. That's your best shot.

In every game before Christmas except the Asheville game, we played well, but we had games in the second half down the stretch where we lost our poise a little bit. We didn't get shots we wanted. We overreacted.

They may have been mentally tired from exams (Furman's winter term ended last week) or from the grind of the season and the pressure of every game down the stretch.
