Boynton's motivation quote
Boynton said the Huskies would have motivation from last year's loss but the game itself won't be affected by past events.
“i think there's a natural sense of motivation for the losing team, if you will, right? the way the season ended was certainly sad for them that night. obviously braylon mullins was part of the team. silas demary was a part of that team. solo ball was part of the team, although he's not playing. they have several other guys who were.”
