Students will soon have the chance to voice concerns to ASUNM senators about everything from campus lighting to new dorms.
� e undergraduate student government will host a town-hall meeting Monday in the SUB Atrium. � e main discussion will be about the Master Plan, which is a docu-ment guiding UNM’s growth over the next 10 years, Sen. Zoila Alvarez said.
Alvarez said a major part of the plan is making UNM less of a commuter school by moving parking o� campus and providing more on-campus housing.
“As of right now, they want to make it a more community-based university,” she said. “� at’s great, but I just don’t feel that with how much of a commuter campus we are, that’s going to be exactly what the student’s want.”
Michael Hoodless, ASUNM senator, said the forum is an oppor-tunity to talk about lack of parking, increased lighting around cam-pus and printing charges.
“� is is to let students know, ‘Hey, the reason these things are being done is because students aren’t speaking up,’” he said. “If they know what’s going on, then they’ll speak up a little more.”
Alvarez said students may not know the details of the plan and will miss the opportunity to give their input on it. She said ASUNM organized the forum to hear students’ ideas on these issues.
“If nobody says anything, they’re going to continue with these plans,” she said. “� ey’re good in the larger scheme. I’m just not sure if they’re appropriate for the entire student body, and we’re here to represent everybody.”
Mary Kenney, UNM planning o� cer, said she will be at the fo-rum to answer students’ questions about the Master Plan. She said

Marking the 400th anniversary of the � rst major Europe-an ethnic cleansing, an international, bilingual conference speaks of cultural unity.
� e “Moros, Moriscos, Marranos y Mestizos: Alterity, Hybridity Identity in Diaspora” continues this celebra-tion Friday and Saturday to remember Spanish history and learn from it.
� e issues addressed in the conference are still appli-cable in today’s world, said Enrique Lamadrid, the director of Chicano Hispano Mexicano Studies.
“� ings that happened 400 years ago are still very much with us,” he said. “We are sending soldiers to a lot of these places even now. Just because these things happened 400 years ago doesn’t mean they were resolved. It’s a very time-ly topic because here we are in the middle of two wars, and these wars are kind of a continuation of the wars that oc-curred back in history.”
� e three-day conference features presentations aimed at helping attendees understand the importance of learn-ing from history’s past, Lamadrid said.
“Becoming aware of this larger history can make us understand contemporary problems more profound-ly,” he said. “� ere are issues of cultural heritage that
understanding how deep our roots are will assist in re-solving. We are having discussions on the centuries of cul-tural and political relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims.”
Keynote speaker Anouar Majid from the University of England said the necessity of separate identities within a given culture are crucial to societal success.
“When I talk about a nation-state, I am identifying a particular kind of entity that was developed at a particular historical period,” he said. “� e thing is, I have never found a group of people who do not come together around some kind of principle ... We attach ourselves to an essence, an essence which excludes others which are not part of that group.”
Harmonious living is a goal for today’s world, Lamadrid said.
“� e magic words ‘to live together’ is what we strive for,” he said. “Jews, Christians and Muslims were living together in the same society and were thriving together — that was Spain before 1492.”
Presenter Ricardo Martinez, who focused his lec-ture on the community’s role in Chicano literature, said

In response to the Feb. 15 stab-bing, about 70 students, faculty and sta� traipsed about campus � urs-day looking for safety hazards.
� e O� ce of Student A� airs and Student A� airs vice president Eliseo “Cheo” Torres organized a campus safety walk.
“We have to realize we’re an ur-ban campus,” Torres said. “Look at what happened — a student got
stabbed. We never want this to hap-pen again.”
� e students paired o� into groups to walk main campus. Each group was given a checklist describ-ing what to look for. When students saw a problem with lights, emer-gency phone systems or general “safety conditions and upkeep,” they marked the form to indicate what and where the problem was.
� e checklists were collected by Safety and Risk Services Depart-ment to be reviewed and possibly
� xed. Before the walk, students gath-
ered in the SUB for an introduction and orientation. Torres, ASUNM Vice President Mike Westervelt and UNM Police Chief Kathy Guimond spoke at the event.
Westervelt told students that at-tending the walk is the best thing to do in response to the attack.
“� is is a very proactive stance you’re taking on the attacks,” he said. “� is is the correct response. � is is your campus.”

Daily Lobo asks you: Would you like to read Daily Lobo articles in Spanish?
“I think that Daily Lobo articles in Spanish would be really beneficial to the University, because there are a lot of students here who speak Spanish and have grown up in a bilingual environment. It will help people who speak primarily Spanish relate to the University. I would definitely read it myself. “
Max TrujilloSophomore
Biology
“Being that I am not bilingual, I wouldn’t read it. But I would like for there to be that option for people who are bilingual. This University is about including people, not excluding people. If people are more comfortable reading in Spanish then they should be able to. We are bordering a nation that is mostly Spanish. “
Meghan AllenJunior
Psychology
“Yes, I know a little Spanish, so it would help me learn it better. It would give people a sense of culture. There are a lot of people who speak Spanish, so it would help people remember to keep reading and writing in Spanish.”
Paloma DallagoFreshman

“I would probably not. I don’t read it. It is my second language, not my first. I think most people here are learning English now. I don’t see how it would be beneficial to the campus.”

“Since its founding on the sand hills above downtown Albuquerque in 1889, the University of New Mexico has graduated countless thousands of students who have been the mainstays of New Mexico's economic, political, and cultural life. The heart and soul of Albuquerque, and beloved by its alumni across the country and around the world, UNM is much more than an alma mater. It has querencia, a place in our hearts, like a homeland.” – V. B. Price
she is eager to hear student input on transforming UNM into a campus that fosters community and moves away from commuting.
“We want to create an envi-ronment that’s exciting,” she said. “Right now, it’s kind of boring, frankly.”
She said there is no set date for presenting the Master Plan to be approved by the Board of Regents.
Hoodless said many students are uninformed about issues that
will end up affecting them in the long run. He said the forum can help students get informed.
“That’s the whole idea — to open up students’ eyes to what is going on,” he said. “A lot of students just don’t know. We want to help them out as much as possible.”
He said he is hoping that 50 to 100 students will show up, but isn’t sure if it will happen. Alvarez said ASUNM will probably host only one more forum this semester.
community living is fundamental to society.
“At its best, the community serves as a beloved place — a place of com-fort, a place with no apologies need-ed, a place of utopian acceptance,” he said. “At its worst, it is a normalizing force. When people try to construct their identity outside of the lines of the community, it is difficult.”
Defining a community as a gath-ering of individuals, Martinez said the impact of culture is dependent upon unity.
“An aggregation is a group, body or mass composed (of) many dis-tinct parts or individuals,” he said. “A singular Chicano experienc-es a tangible, definable aggrega-tion that functions as a foundation to a structure of a more meaningful
understanding of the myriad forces exerting influences upon it.”
Culture is fabricated, Majid said, and the people who define that cul-ture have the power to alter it for the better.
“Even when you are talking about biology, I like to offend my biology friends by saying, ‘I don’t believe in biology. Prove to me there is a biol-ogy,’” he said. “In other words, ev-erything is cultural. It’s true I have a liver; I have a head, but what’s in-teresting is I become me only what happens beyond the biological. Biol-ogy is inert — is immaterial. It has no existence. It is the symbolic that pro-vides me with an identity. So when I talk about identity and national iden-tity, we will always be in the realm of the symbolic.”

LITTLETON, Colo. — Among items seized from the room of a man accused of wounding two stu-dents at a Colorado middle school were photos of youths who appear to be in their teens, prompting the accused’s father to speculate that his son may have had online con-tact with students there prior to the attack.
Jefferson County sheriff’s investi-gators Thursday were puzzling over why Bruco Strong Eagle Eastwood, 32, may have targeted Deer Creek Middle School. They declined to say whether Eastwood had contact with students at the school, which is just miles from Columbine High, but they were interviewing students and parents.
“It’s very well a possibility, but it remains under investigation,” said sheriff’s spokesman Mark Techmeyer.
Eastwood’s father, War Eagle Eastwood, said Wednesday that he found digital pictures in his son’s room showing students, who he guessed were in middle school or high school. Investigators seized the photos when they searched East-wood’s home in Hudson. The elder
Eastwood said his son had talked to himself and imaginary friends and that recently that talk had turned into yelling.
The Eastwoods don’t have a home computer, but War Eagle Eastwood said his son would go to public libraries. Officials at nearby Hudson public library declined to comment, citing privacy concerns.
Investigators were also reviewing Bruco Eastwood’s journals as they tried to figure out why he allegedly showed up at his old school Tues-day and started firing in the parking lot before he was tackled by a math teacher.
Student Reagan Weber was treat-ed at a hospital and released. The mother of the other victim, Matt Thieu, said he was doing well at a hospital. Deer Creek was scheduled to reopen for classes on Monday.
Teacher David Benke was hailed as a hero. Officials called his actions proof that the Littleton-area com-munity had learned lessons from Columbine, when law enforcement was criticized for not moving quick-ly enough in the 1999 incident in which two teenagers killed 12 stu-dents and a teacher before killing themselves.
Investigators say Eastwood ini-tially entered the school Tues-day, said he was a former student, and chatted with teachers without
drawing suspicion. Sheriff’s depart-ment spokeswoman Jacki Kelley said Eastwood used a restroom and left the building.
Moments later, he opened fire with his father’s bolt-action hunting rifle in the parking lot.
Techmeyer didn’t release the ex-act timeline, saying it was part of the investigation. But he said that con-trary to what a school official has said, it was moments, rather than hours, between the time Eastwood entered and left the building and when the shooting began.
A school security officer was not at Deer Creek at the time because he was responsible for three schools and was investigating a property crime at another school, Kelley said. Other officers were on the scene within three minutes, Techmeyer said.
Shooter may have known students
LOS ANGELES — The gang en-forcement unit in the desert city of Hemet was on high alert Thursday after a bizarre booby trap sent a bul-let whizzing past an officer in what authorities said was the second at-tack in two months at a building used by the task force.
The gang officer escaped in-jury Tuesday from the single shot triggered as he rolled up a booby-trapped security fence at the build-ing, police spokesman Lt. Duane Wisehart said.
“It was obviously designed to kill or injure an officer, had it gone off exactly as intended,” Wisehart said, calling the attack a form of domestic terrorism.
He described the device as a modified weapon designed to fire a single handgun-caliber bullet. The shot missed because the officer was standing to the side of the fence
instead of in front of it as he pulled it open.
Hemet, a foreclosure-stricken city located in Riverside County’s San Jacinto Valley with a popula-tion of about 75,000, has seen an upswing in gang membership in re-cent years.
NEW HAVEN, Conn. — The Connecticut Supreme Court has rejected an appeal by a man serv-ing a 125-year prison term for murder who demanded DNA tests done on remains of the victim, claiming the boy is alive and hid-ing in Italy.
The high court on Thursday unanimously rejected the appeal by Thomas Marra Jr., who was con-victed of killing 15-year-old Alex Palmieri of Bridgeport in 1984.
Witnesses said the teenager was beaten with a baseball bat
and stuffed into a refrigerator that was dumped in Bridgeport Harbor. Two years later, a sneaker and foot bones washed ashore.
ALBUQUERQUE — State police say a burned body was found near an arroyo in northern New Mexi-co, and two men are being held on unrelated probation and parole vi-olation charges while agents con-tinue their investigation.
Spokesman Lt. Eric F. Garcia says the body was so badly burned it could not be identified. The state Office of the Medical Investigator will conduct an autopsy and make an identification.
Authorities are looking into the possibility the body may be that of Steven Duran of Espanola, who was reported missing Monday. Garcia says his family last saw him in Feb. 17 in Espanola.

A recent letter entitled, “PETA: ‘Organic’ meats are still slaughtered inhumanely,” writ-ten by Drew Winter was published Thursday. The letter talked about how organic meat still has problems with the slaughtering practic-es. Several of our readers commented online, which you can read below. You can join the conversation at DailyLobo.com.
by ‘David Wilson’ Posted Thursday“There’s nothing wrong with being vegetar-
ian or vegan if you want to be, but I like meat. I don’t anthropomorphize animals; they are a part of our food chain, and are not human. While I don’t want the animals to suffer un-duly, neither do I want to put meat out of the reach of all but the richest by treating them as human.
It worries me that so many people seem to feel more for the suffering of animals than they do the suffering of humans. While any child in this country goes to bed hungry, I say — bring on the cheap meat.”
by ‘Sophie’ Posted Thursday“I don’t think vegans and vegetarians an-
thropomorphize animals. But we realize cows and pigs are mammals and have the same nervous systems that humans have and so feel pain in the same way. And I know of no vegan or vegetarian that feels more for the suffering of animals than for humans. No one wants a child to go to bed hungry. It’s not an either/or question. In fact, if the land used for meat pro-duction were used for grain/vegetable pro-duction, there would be more food produced per acre for the hungry children.”
by ‘Phillip Howel’ Posted Thursday“Winter says: ‘male chicks, of no use, … are
killed by suffocation or by being ground up alive.’ Exactly what happens to a male child during an abortion?
Mr. Winter, is this humane? Do you sup-port ‘euthanasia by painless injection’ for hu-man babies rather than the dismemberment that happens during an abortion?
Bad me! I forgot, PETA is pro-abortion for humans but not animals.”
Editor,I am more than curious — I really want to
know — am I the only person in this country who was born in the United States of Ameri-ca and now finds himself living in the Divid-ed States of America? A nation that the people we have placed in charge want to keep divid-ed because divided, we are easier to dominate and control?
I wonder if there are other people in this country who are having the same experience I am — that any iota of attempting to seek what is best for us all is something foreign to the people we have elected to serve us.
Isn’t it time that we “woke up” and united in the cause of giving our once-great nation a new birth of freedom, so that “government of the people, by the people, for the people,” can once again exist on the earth?

Now I know a lot of you watch, and maybe even enjoy, the show “Family Guy,” but let me tell you — you are wrong.
First off, please note that this piece won’t address the issues commonly bashed on by the critics of the interwebs. I have no intent to pick apart the show’s lack of a story line, or that all its jokes are derived from cut away gags, forced musical numbers or needless repetitions. And why even address the show’s gross out humor that fails to gross people out. (Ugh that’s worse than trying to address a communist cow’s cud chewing problem).
Do you see what I did there? See how I just cut away from my narrative for no reason? Do you see how I didn’t really bother to come up with anything original. Really, all I did was combine a bunch of words starting with “C” and hoped for the best. And in the “Family Guy” universe that would have worked just fine.
The frat stoner college boys, the middle school kids just getting into comedy, the se-nile and decrepit stuck on Fox because they no longer know how to use a remote, these people might burst into laughter at the sight of Peter fighting a giant chicken or clutching his knee and saying, “Ow,” a thousand times,
or another masturbatory music number. But the rest of the populace should know better. The only thing grosser than this failing on the part of the public is a VHS copy of Girls Gone Wild: Gangrenous Goiters edition.
Really, I don’t even have a problem with the other shows on Fox. I love American Dad, another product of MacFarlane’s, and even liked Family Guy when it first began and in its first rebirth. The problem is the writers have become engorged with a sense of their own ego.
I digress, but it’s so hard to throw new hate at Family Guy at this point. Not because the show doesn’t lend itself to hate. I hate mu-sicals. I hate cut-away gags even more than I hate the show’s attempts to be offensive. Sure, it’s offensive to everyone outside of the “Family Guy” demographic, but who the hell watches Family Guy outside of the undergrad-uate male demographic other than a couple of bored girlfriends? People who watch the show are thusly desensitized to all that “Fam-ily Guy” writing staff has to offer.
That means rape jokes, incest jokes, mur-der jokes, murder-incest-rape jokes and fecal jokes, don’t even shock or challenge the au-dience. Instead, the audience for Family Guy takes all these “offensive” jokes and tosses them continuously at the audience like a dog owner tosses pig ears.
That’s right. Consistent viewers of “Family Guy” are like junkyard dogs who don’t know any better. And it’s even worse than polar bears without nachos on Cinco de Mayo.
The point though is that all the hate’s been pretty thoroughly exhausted. Type in “Fam-ily Guy sucks” or “criticisms of Family Guy” or any thing along those lines and you’ll find more sites on the subject than pimples on a ‘roid-popping, ball-playing midget.
The question is why does the show con-tinue to boast strong ratings. Why does it out-perform superior shows such as The Simpsons or American Dad for weeks at a time on Hulu?
I want answers worse than a high school hon-ors student balancing a crack addiction while taking the SAT in Chinese.
Is that bothering you yet? Because it’s driv-ing me insane.
Consider the most recent episode, of which I only made it through the first com-mercial break. There are eight interchange-able jokes or cut-away gags, such as a British person capturing a rogue butterfly or a pair of oddly place immigrants speaking in broken English about phone cards. There’s also an extended number where Peter skates around in a Tron-like costume and then throws his helmet on the ground before wandering off like a child. Does this sound funny to you?
For your pleasure, I’ve constructed a list of things probably funnier and better to do than watching Family Guy for a half an hour:
Watching linoleum curl — the subtle na-ture of the curling floor will leave in you in rows of laughter for days, and when it starts to crackle you’ll be sure to cackle. Zing!
Enlightenment, because you’ll be able to chuckle softly at the mere mortals beneath you.
Watching a Lars von Trier film because if you’re going to see rape, murder and fecal matter you might as well see it in full detail.
The episodes rely on the same shock that’s no longer shocking. It brings about the one time character that should have been left in the past long ago. Family Guy is a show that’s not even trying anymore, and for this reason I feel it would be most appropriate if it took all dead on arrival gags, flimsy stories and characters and awful animation and just stopped.
I know I don’t have to watch it. I don’t watch it, but I cringe when I see a great crime being committed against my fellow man. I must intervene. Family Guy please stop. Just try to make a good show instead of resting on your comedic haunches, like a fat guy run-ning up stairs at the Eiffel Tower.

The Mountain West Conference caucuses are over.
The time for teams to put in their applications for first-place candidacy has come and gone.
It’s here — the penultimate peak in the 16-game league season — the MWC summit, where a regular-sea-son leader will, in all likelihood, be decidedly anointed.
The candidates have been nar-rowed down.
This is No. 10 UNM men’s basket-ball team against No. 13 BYU in Pro-vo, Utah — the incumbent first-place Lobos against the running-for-office Cougars, two of last year’s tri-appoin-tees (along with Utah) who shared the MWC regular-season title.
This is arguably the biggest game in the 10-year history of the MWC, spot-lighting a battle of the league’s high-est-ranked teams since the MWC’s inception.
This is, well — let’s leave it to senior forward Roman Martinez to explain.
“The way it’s turned out is incred-ible,” Martinez said. “Both teams have two losses. When’s the last time that happened? It’s been a great year. We’re going to keep on refusing to lose.”
Up for grabs are rights to the MWC regular-season throne.
BYU enters Saturday’s game a half game back of the Lobos for first place in the conference as the season draws to a close. A win would put BYU a half game ahead of the Lobos, pend-ing the results of its final two games against Utah and TCU. For the Lobos, a win over the Cougars would solidify the regular-season crown, given they closed the season with a win over TCU.
Still, Alford disagrees.“A championship is not going to be
necessarily won or lost on Saturday,” he said. “As far as controlling our own destiny, we need Saturday’s game. It’s not a game we go into telling our guys that we have to be super human. Do we have to play well? Yeah. And we’re going have to do a lot of good things well to give ourselves a chance in that last five minutes to steal a victory.”
To make matters worse, the Lobos will have to do all this in the inhospi-table confines of the Marriott Center, a place UNM hasn’t won at since 2000 — a streak spanning nine games.
Meanwhile, the Cougars — 26-3 overall, 11-2 in the MWC — after swiftly disposing of San Diego State on Wednesday, 82-68, have reeled off four consecutive wins, whereas the Lobos enter on a 12-game league winning streak — tied for longest
history in conference history with Utah (2004-05).
In that stretch, the Lobos stormed to résumé-building victories over UNLV in Las Vegas and then another home win against the Cougars, edg-ing by 76-72.
The Lobos, however, staged less-than-assertive triumphs against MWC opponents Air Force and Colorado State — teams where simply show-ing up almost guaranteed the Lobos a prize. Instead, UNM unconvincingly eked out wins 59-56 over the Falcons and 72-66 against the lowly Rams — a fact that doesn’t have Alford the least bit concerned.
Implications aside, judging by how furiously competitive the last contest was in The Pit, this figures to be a top-sy-turvy, state-of-the-conference af-fray, Alford said.
The question is: Can the Lobos effectively enact a game plan to lock down on BYU’s Jimmer Fredette, who is averaging 21.7 points per game and five assists? Can the Cougars enact a plan to circumvent Darington Hob-son’s versatility?
All good questions.Alford said the answer isn’t strict-
ly stunting Fredette so much as it’s not allowing Tyler Haws (11.7 ppg) and Jackson Emery (12.4) to score in double-figures.
“Holding them down in their building is going to be really difficult,” Alford said.
Going in the Lobos favor, Alford said, is playing in season-ending boil-ermakers are less stressful, since UNM is almost certainly an NCAA Tourna-ment shoo-in.
Still, it took a lot to get to this point, where UNM stands today.
And Alford got introspective when asked to reminisce on the three-year journey — the path by which UNM transformed itself from a dysfunc-tional, disjointed last-place MWC pro-gram, in 2006, into what it is today.
“When I arrived, I was trying to get used to altitude, trying to get used to red and green chile and trying to get used to the whole Christmas thing,” said Alford, noting he could have nev-er expected to be in the position he is today. “And then I got that guy J.R. Giddens. I knew he looked like a mil-lion bucks, so I’m thinking about how he’s going to be a part of it and every-body’s telling me he can’t be a part of it.”
The back story, of course, goes that the Lobos finished third Alford’s first year, the first in what has become a string of top 3 finishes. Alford reared Giddens from pretentious and pam-pered him into a first-round NBA

draft pick.Now, three years later, after sharing
a regular-season championship last season, the Lobos are on the cusp of repeating as regular-season champs — this time outright. No sharing.
“Everybody talks about outright,”
Alford said. “I won a Big Ten title as a player in ’87 and I shared that. I still have a ring that says Big Ten cham-pion on it. Last year we shared it with two teams and the guys still have a ring that says Mountain West Con-ference champions. I don’t care if it’s
shared or outright. You go through a two-and-a-half-month league bat-tle — if at the end you stand on that pedestal and you’re atop everybody, that’s something special. We’ll take a league championship if we can tie eight teams.”

Big game from page 5
by Ryan TomariDaily Lobo
It’s home sweet home for the UNM baseball team.
The Lobos (2-1), ranked No. 19 in the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper, have their home opener today, a four-series against Northern Colorado at Isotopes Park.
Northern Colorado will play its first games of the season. The Bears finished the 2009 campaign with an 18-35 record and were 7-23 away from home.
Starting for the Bears on Friday will be senior left-handed pitcher James Quisenberry. In 2009, Quisen-berry posted a 2-2 record and a 10.40 earned run average.
Meanwhile, the Lobos are still high off two program-defining wins over then-No.1 Texas. UNM beat the Longhorns 6-5 on Saturday and 3-1 on Sunday.
While the Bears aren’t the Long-horns, UNM head coach Ray Bir-mingham said he refuses to allow his players to be ill-prepared for North-ern Colorado.
“Baseball is baseball, and, if you have coached long enough, you know anybody can beat anybody,” he said. “Watch the big leagues. The Yankees could be on fire and kicking tail, and
then they will go into a series with the worst team in baseball and lose.”
Still, those defining wins forced the Mountain West Conference — and the nation — to take notice of Lobo baseball.
The series win earned Lobos Mike Lachapelle and Max Willett MWC Player of the Week awards.
In Lachapelle’s UNM, as well as Division I debut, the junior-college transfer pitched seven innings, al-lowed one earned run, a walk and one strikeout. At one point, Lachapelle seated five straight Texas batters, all of whom started in the College World Series last year against LSU.
“It feels great coming out after my first win of my career, especially com-ing against a team like Texas, who is No. 1 in the nation,” Lachapelle said. “It’s just big, and it’s a really good start-ing point, and I just have to build on it from here on out. I can’t be too happy with it. I have to go out and keep on pitching well.”
The Texas series, however, is an-cient history, Lachapelle said, and he’s moved on to focusing his atten-tion on the Bears, in his first meaning-ful start at Isotopes Park.
“I have never played in Isotopes Park before — only just once before in an intra-squad scrimmage we had,” Lachapelle said. “It’s a great park, and
I am excited that I will get to experi-ence that.”
The Lobo pitching staff will look to keep momentum after shutting down the Longhorns’ No. 1 offense.
And Lobo pitcher Austin House will try to do that against Northern Colorado in the same fashion he did against Texas. House finished off the Texas’ final six batters on Sunday to clinch the 3-1 win.
House was speechless when asked to reflect on his Sunday closing act.
“I am at such a loss for words right now,” House said. “It was weird hav-ing the jersey on for the first time and going out there and playing the best team in the nation. It was something new. It was definitely different. I have played in some big games before, but nothing like that.”
