Nevada fought very hard. They improved as the year went on as much as any team I've seen in a long time.

Give Nevada credit, they fought hard. They fought hard. They have improved a great deal over the season.

It's hard to beat a team three times. They're improved.

We've had a young team all year, but we always played hard. In the last month or so, though, we're playing at another level above just playing hard. I think that's what separated this program from others the last couple of years, and now we've just put it all together.

I think the better team won. We fought hard, and they fought hard, but they were a little more consistent with their serves and passes than we were, and that was that.

Tennessee is a great team. They're No. 1 for a reason and they make you pay for your mistakes. We went through a stretch and didn't score, and a lot of it had to do with turnovers.
