Coach Joe Burke: "Sometimes you just have to tip your hat to your opponent. That's a really good, well-coached team with maybe in my mind one of the best players in the country. I enjoy playing that program every year because it always tells me where we are as a team. We are not there yet and we know that. We need to use the break too get some guys healthy and get ourselves ready for January and February."
