I have never heard the crowd that silent here at Rupp Arena before. So it was a good feeling, but I was a little shocked at the same time.
I hate this feeling. We just have to move on from it.
I felt like we had the momentum going.
I feel like I've got my bounce back.
We're just going to keep doing what we've been doing all year. It's the same routine. We don't really have to change anything.
It's a big part of our game. When the ball gets in, we want to get it out.
It's tournament time, man. You've got to shoot it with confidence. You feel me?
They had a great run. I'm happy for them. Now it's time to go win a championship.
There was not much we could do (last season) because it wasn't our team. It was frustrating at times because we wanted to push the ball. (Anthony) Roberson and Matt Walsh just wanted to walk ... it ... up. I loved playing with those guys but it was frustrating at times.
It's a great story, but we'd be a lot happier if it's a story that ended now.
It's all about confidence, and confidence comes from trusting your teammates. What's great about our team is we never know who's going to step up.
It's all about team chemistry. We're doing it as a group.
It sucks losing. I hate this feeling, and we've just got to get over this.
It's the last 10 minutes. We had to get stops. We hadn't been getting stops all game, so we just had to make sure that we didn't let them score when we were trying to get a lead.
