Kevin Kruger Quotations

We're not going to quit. It doesn't matter what uniform we're wearing, or what name is on the back of our jerseys. We're just not going quit.

That's the intensity level you have to bring into each game and we were lacking that for whatever reason. We weren't scared going into tonight, not at all. We accepted the challenge of playing the top team in the Pac-10 at their place.

Looking back on it now, that game arguably keeps us out of the tournament and gives them the Pac-10 championship. You're not going to find many rivalry games that can have that weight. Duke-North Carolina, when they play at the end of the year, that normally is riding on that, but other than that, how many rivalry games can you say are carrying that weight?

We were thinking they were going to take us for granted. I guarantee you nobody in here thought we were going to win.

Up there they were up by two at the half, this time we were up by two. Other than that, it was pretty much the same.

No question. I play better and we have a chance. But I go out there and lay an egg. Put this on me.

We've had some unfortunate breaks. We don't have the luxury to blow another game because we're worried about the past.

We just didn't play well in the second half. They went on a run and we didn't answer.

We came out there wide-eyed and scared. We can't afford to have that many turnovers; we're not that offensively gifted.

If my grandmother stepped out there, I'd try to give him (Evans) that win.
