I don't know, we won 17 or 18, or 18 out of 19, whatever it is. But this Utah State Aggies game, to be able to hold a team like this -- this has been our calling card all year -- we're pretty good on Utah State - 64, San Diego State - 57 offense. I think we're fifth or sixth in the country in assists on the year, but it's been our defense. THE MODERATOR: We're joined by Utah State head coach Craig Smith and student-athletes Sam Merrill To hold a team like that to 33 percent for the game and and Neemias Queta. Coach, an opening statement. 27 percent in the second half, that's how you're able to close out games and that's how you're able to close out COACH SMITH: Well, what a fantastic game. championships. Obviously San Diego State is -- I mean, they're very, very good, first of all. They're incredibly talented. So want to thank the Mountain West Conference. This They're strong, physical, athletic.
