On keeping their edge at home:

“It’s a mental thing. It’s got to become one of the characteristics of our team. It can be talked about but a team has to get it in their blood, get it in their DNA, you know? It’s challenging this time of year. You come home and it’s Christmas time and people are getting comfortable and you can’t allow yourself to do that. I think this game this test comes at a very good time for us. It’s national tv and it’s a top team in the East.
