OLE MISS COACH PAT HARRISON
"They pitched a great game again tonight. Defensively they made big plays, their second baseman had quite a night. We were non-aggressive at the plate and you have to contribute that to the way their guy (Brian Gates) pitched. It was the same as Friday."

"We're in a funk offensively and we didn't help things giving up runs with sloppy defense and making errors. Teams go through this. Hitting is infectious and that's where Tennessee is right now. They're hitting well right now. Things change quickly in the SEC and we look to get back to where we were."

"Brett (Young) pitched a good game for us. He did an outstanding job giving us a spark and a chance to do something and we didn't do it. It will mean a lot to us later on in the league."

TENNESSEE HEAD COACH ROD DELMONICO
"We played really intense tonight. It's real hard to come back after you play a game so well, like we did last night. We really competed hard tonight."

TENNESSEE CATCHER JOHN MASSEY
"We had a great win tonight. Brian really pitched great tonight. Him lasting so long saves our pitching for tomorrow. That's just a credit to our staff. Also, the pitching helped free up our hitters. We didn't have to worry about getting enough runs."

"We had a big challenge tonight, but we came through."
