although build last momentum start stretch tougher
This last stretch was good. Although we didn't play tougher teams, it was an important stretch. We could start to build some momentum going into the conference.
half matter parts regardless rhythm season second sort worry
This is one of the most important parts of the season no matter who we play because right now we just have to worry about us and what we need to do and try to get some sort of rhythm going in the second half of the season. Regardless of who we play right now, it's just a really important part of the season.
feelings frustrated hardest head needed personally replay represent slip
The most overwhelming feelings I have right now are being frustrated and angry. You replay things in your head that you let slip away and it makes you so mad. The hardest feeling for me personally is feeling that I didn't do what I needed to do to represent the program.
both definitely game riding
Definitely a lot is riding on this game. I think it?s definitely a big game for both teams.
Coach, we don't want you to give up on us.
couple crunch last past playing realizing regular senior step time
I think we?re all realizing that it?s the culmination of our last regular season. This is the time where every senior in the past had to step up and make things happen; (Will?s) been playing like crunch time for the past couple games.
anybody definitely good prove ready
I think we definitely have some things that we need to prove to ourselves, not to anybody else. That's obvious. Right now I feel like everyone's in a really good place and ready to go into postseason play.
hoping maybe
I think we were still hoping for something to have happened, something to maybe give us another chance.
coming feed finally happens hope tried
I think when something like that happens you just kind of have to play through other people. You kind of feed off of them and just hope to get back and find yourself somehow. So that's what I tried to do and finally I feel like I'm kind of coming back.
boston knowing points
Knowing that we were two points from being in Boston (is tough).
barbara chip coach continue crucial definitely either great happened momentum needed point seen side wide
I think it was just a crucial play that we needed at a big point in the game. Either they were going to get the momentum back on their side and continue to kind of chip away at us and you could've seen something that happened the other night. It definitely was a big play. Coach called it up and Barbara set a great screen. I was wide open.
beat biggest east game good lost mentally reason team tonight
I think that's what makes it so frustrating. You look at a game like tonight and you see how good we can look and then you say the only reason we lost tonight is because we beat ourselves. We let another team come back into it and we mentally kind of got shaken. I think that's something that's going to be the biggest thing going into the (Big East and NCAA) tournaments.
coach knows prepare team time
I think that's the way that coach has always, kind of something he's always been know for. He knows how to prepare a team for this time of year.
build felt game step took whatever
Overall, it felt like we didn't come and play. We wanted to build off the LSU game and it felt like we took a step back. We were scatterbrained for whatever reason. We'll get it back. We all know what we have to do.
