For one thing, we’re 4-2 and they are 3-3. This really doesn’t rise to the level of being a blackout game. For another, we just don’t need to make it bigger than it is. Treat it like business as usual. Like it or not, making it a blackout just ramps up the pressure and it motivates your opponent.
This is just what we DON’T need to do: have an overreaction to our win over UK. It was a great win and I’m enjoying it, but we need to keep some perspective.
