We've been scoring points; that's not our problem. Our defense has left us. The way you play defense is with hustle and heart, and I hope we get that back.

We always seem to have some really good battles with them. (The comeback) was a matter of us getting up and guarding people. (John) Ashworth and the big boy (Johnson) is really a load in there.

Even after that hot start, he still broke us down too easily after that. If you don't play defense in this league that will happen. The good thing is that it's nothing that can't be corrected. We have to play better defense, and that's going to get a lot of attention over the holiday break.

We play better defense than we do offense. We try to score off our defense. We concentrate a lot more on our defense. We've been working on it a lot the last couple of weeks and that's helped us a lot.

We didn't play really good defense. That's why we were down 4-2. But the guys realized that after the first, we had to play better. We had to tighten things up.

I think if we have a shot to be great, it is on defense. If we play great defense, we have a chance every Friday night.
