Texas Southern coach Mike Davis says his team's loss Saturday to Prairie View was the result of less rigorous practicing in the wake of a nine-game win streak.
It's been a business-like atmosphere at practice for Texas Southern this week, more than it usually is.

TSU fell at Prairie View in a 59-55 loss Saturday, handing the Tigers their first conference loss this season.
"We took a step back the last two weeks of practice where we weren't really practicing hard," TSU head coach Mike Davis said. "Hopefully, it got their attention by losing a game. We played a team that was ready to play. They wanted it more than us."
