Utah Head Coach Jim Boylen
"We gave up too many offensive rebounds and we turned it over too many times. Those turnovers are skewed a little bit because it includes those offensive fouls and some tipped balls that we thought maybe should have gone our way. The bottom line is that we played good enough offensively to win and our defense was awesome. We played our butt off on defense.""
"We couldn't seem to get a rebound at a key time. It's tough when you have to guard against 18 more shots than you take. You have to give New Mexico credit, they have a good team, but I have a good team too. I still love my team."
"They missed 33 shots in their home building, but we have to go and get some of those balls. We lost the rebounding game and the free throw game. We can't lose that many games within the game, and still win."
"We did a good job going to Luke tonight. We kept going to him and he was the focal point of their defense."
"I thought we battled very hard. They made some three's down the stretch but we beefed up our pressure on defense and had some success."
