...Cortes after landing in the America's sunk his ships to motivate his soldiers/explorers that there was no turning back, it was go time, do or die. Our team needs to get a killer instinct. Maybe it's a cultural thing that will never happen with most of the team being good, nice, young Mormon return missionaries.

We beat Gonzaga in Gonzaga last year but it was us catching them off-guard and only sent them a wake-up call (kinda like Pearl Harbor did for us). They upped their ante in Provo and played with a significantly heightened sense of urgency and determination, as if Coach Few had, like Cortes "sunk his ships behind them." They then upped it again in the WCC championship.
