Stanford – Oregon, 72-65
Eugene, Ore.
Postgame Quotes
-----------------------
Oregon Head Coach Ernie Kent
“We were down 17 and did a good job of battling back. The fouls and turnovers in the game really cost us. “
“[Jeremy]Green and [Landry] Fields are great players, and [Drew] Shiller made the difference in the first half.”
“We are getting better in some areas.”
“There is a lack of composure and poise. At any level, you have to have outstanding guard play. And, I'm not blaming them, but they just had a bad game.”
“[Jeremy] Jacobs had a great basketball game, and [Josh] Crittle had a great week at practice. I'm really proud of those two.”
“There are some things we still struggle with. We need consistency, and we have to put the ball in the hoop.”
“We've been down this path before and we know what we are doing. We're plugging away. We never look at it and say it's not going to turn around. The team is going through a lot right now and we have to bring them around. We believe in ourselves and we believe in our program. Be patient. This team will come, we just need to grow some more.”
“It's frustrating, but we have to look at where we grew a little bit. We have got to lead them through it, have to keep coaching them. We know where we are going, it's just taking us a while to get there.”
Jeremy Jacob - So., F
“The problem was the eight free-throws we gave them in a row and turnovers.”
“In times of drought we just know we have to defend. We have to fight until the end, and work on fouls and turnovers.”
“When we were down we rallied back, the guys came off the bench with a great spark.”
E.J. Singler - Fr., F
“It was really disappointing. We came in thinking we were ready. We had a good week at practice, and we were focused before the game.”
“We have to give Stanford credit. They played well and made the plays down the stretch.” On turnovers:
“We had some critical turnovers in the second half at critical times. They got point off of them which killed us. That, and free-throws, killed us in the second half.”
“I'm not sure what we're missing. I thought we played hard. We just weren't focused. They had easy buckets on turnovers.”
“We just need to watch film, forget it, know how it feels, and then look to Cal and get ready for them.”

Stanford Head Coach Johnny Dawkins
“I thought we definitely did well defensively. We knew we had to keep fighting. They are a scrappy team.”
“I like to see more guys in double figures, a lot of the guys really stepped up.”
“To get any kind of win in the Pac-10 feels great, especially one on the road.”
