I wonder if Tommy had to ask aLois Lane-type question about "woodshedded".

I think these statements are huge and so true. Finally we didn't get down by 17+ points......


“When you get up on somebody mentally, you have a much better chance of pulling away and winning,” Dada said. “That was a good step in the right direction.”

Satterfield said: “We didn’t get in a hole like we had been doing. We hadn’t played from the lead hardly any at all this year.”

These are even more critical for a young team as their mental tenacity is more fragile than a more experienced player.

And as they get older, we shouldn't see us getting behind like this to teams we can beat...I think they grew up some yesterday...A much needed win for them..

A cultural shift happened yesterday. By all accounts the locker room celebration was unreal.

A taste of victory will make them thirst for it that much more.

the players gave Satt and Beasley game balls. maybe this is the turning point in the entire team getting Scott's back and fully playing for him

Winning will change a lot of things, for sure.

But IMO this team has collectively fought harder than any team in the last several years. From what I saw, their effort didn't change yesterday but mistakes were corrected and pieces fell together.
