Post Game
I wonder if we'll hear from Coach.

And we did. Coach is, of course, very disappointed. "I guess we weren't able to deal with the brain pressure". The team handled the ball well and passed good but the unforced errors were ridiculous. He's very frustrated with the performance he just saw - no excuse for 31 attack errors and feels the team didn't go after the ball at all. It shouldn't have happened with our skill level. He did have compliments for Kelli Goodan. He felt she played with alot of emotion and probably shouldn't have pulled her off the floor.

I don't know what to say. That wasn't the team we're used to. So what happened? Did the pressure of playing Texas get to them? We know it was going to be a great match.

Jackie - Coach didn't candy coat anything. Too many unforced errors. Expected us to respond in a more competitive way.

Onto Houston:
What do the AGgies need to do vs. Houston? Increase competitiveness!!! Houston has a good OH (Farmer). Need to have a mindset change!

I thought we'd be much more competitive in this game. I have no idea what happened.

Ouch, this was the first time I've ever heard Coach Jordan specifically cite a player's poor performance in a post-game interview. In this case, 3 players by name!
