... there's no reason we should let a team like Houston dominate us on the boards like that. Rebounding is about effort, desire and positioning. We just didn't compete at all.

I think that general lack of competing carried over to other areas as well. We got punched in the mouth and then just laid down and let them walk all over us. Last year in Provo we took that punch, got back up, fought back and tied the game with them at 68 all with a minute to go.

We needed our returning guys to lead the way. They need to own this and then man up going forward.
