I was pretty excited. It's a totally different role for me. Coming back, with a whole new team, I thought it would be fun. No one had too high of expectations, so we could just go out and have fun.

I thought we played pretty good D. Those steals at the end were huge.

I just kinda went into the season to have fun and not have any regrets. That's basically it. I wasn't really thinking about myself, I was thinking about having fun as a team.

When you look at those Xs and Os you're pretty confident in what they are able to do.

When you come back like that, you've got a lot of emotion and you feel pretty good about yourself. And then when you can't come through with the victory, I think there's the ability to be a big letdown.

Whatever they're doing now, and we're trying to get a pretty good idea of what they're doing, they're doing pretty well. Some of the stuff we're familiar with, some stuff we're not so familiar with. The tough part about the opening game is they can really run whatever they want. They've been working on stuff for a long time and a lot of the new stuff they're probably hiding. So that's probably what they're thinking.
