Opening Statementรขโฌยฆ
"We kind of got smashed in the mouth Friday night against Missouri. They came out flying at us and we didn't respond well to drop that match. I think we had a good bounce-back last night and played the best game of the season last night against South Alabama, which is, in the soccer world a good team. They had beaten No. 1 Florida State earlier in the week. They came in with a lot of confidence. We went down 1-0, but we battled back. We played well at times, but couldn't find the equalizer to maybe get that into overtime. But we played a good match and performed well. We go back into conference play on Friday at LSU. It is always a good match and a tight match when we go down there. it is a tough place to play. They have a talented couple of attacking players and one of the better coaches certainly in the league and in the country (Brian Lee). It will be tough for us there. and then get on a plane to travel to Tulsa for our last non-conference game of the season, who is also a very tough team."
