Bob Gansler Played Quotations

We played decently, but it didn't turn into prosperity. ... We've got to make better plays on both sides of the ball and that's what the night was. One better defensive play and one better offensive play, because we sure had the opportunities.

Watson worked out with us this summer and I have scouted him at New Mexico. I think he is an extremely versatile guy who can play in the midfield on both sides and even defensively in the midfield. The impression we got from him last summer was important because he played with and competed with our guys.

We saw (Watson) the last part of the college season. We also saw him last summer. You get as much of an impression there as you do in isolated games. We were impressed with how he played with and against our guys.

As far we're concerned, this is a two-game series and we're only at halftime. We've played at their place, and now they have to play at ours.

They are legitimate favorites in their conference and in the league. Having said that, we've played them well over the years whether it's been at their place or here. We're looking forward to that test.
