beat good hump national needed obviously talked won
We needed it; we talked about it. Obviously we don't feel like we won a national championship, but to be able to beat a top-five team, finally, and to get over that hump is a really good feeling.
defensive good knew needed seemed shot team time tough
We knew how tough they were at home, we knew how good of a team they were. We knew we were going to have to respond. It seemed like every time we needed to make a play or make a shot or get a defensive stop, we were able to do it.
best fight needed plays run sustain time year
That's what this time of year is all about. This time of the year is about being able to sustain a team's best run and fight back and make all the plays that are needed to win.
battle both came few game good job needed night plays point shooting shots tough
I think it had to be a little frustrating for them. But you have to give us some credit, too. We did a good job on defense, especially down the stretch. It was a tough shooting night for both of us. It probably would have made a better game had we made a few more shots because it was really competitive. It just came down to who made the plays when they needed to make them. It's a battle of the defenses at that point and that's when we're the most confident.
act ball defensive good half last minutes needed second seven team
I think in the first half and for about 11 minutes in the second half, they pretty much got the ball where they wanted to get it and they scored when they wanted to score. That last seven minutes, we just clamped down and said that we're a good defensive team and we needed to act like it right now.
allow dwell focused games importance needed ready weigh worst
I'm not just going to say it was one of those games because, obviously, we needed this game. We needed to play well to get ready and get focused for Tuesday. But the worst thing we can do is dwell on this and allow this to weigh us down and take away from the importance of Tuesday's game.
lost mostly played playing press run
We just lost our composure. I give them credit. They played hard, but mostly it was us playing too fast. We went on a run at the beginning, but then they started to press and we lost our minds.
crowd fast friday front ordinary surprised tonight turned
It was weird. I said Friday I'd be surprised if we didn't play well. But we didn't. We had a big crowd tonight and we wanted to play well in front of them. Everything was so fast and out of the ordinary that it turned out wrong.
lose time ugly year
It was an ugly win, but at this time of the year it doesn't really matter. It's about winning. You lose you go home.
ball broken took
It was a broken play. I just called for the ball and took the shot. That was that.
august coming early last late mid playing process season september since slow until year
I've been playing since early August and it was a slow process getting back in. It wasn't until mid to late September when I started to feel like myself again. I feel light-years better than I did last year coming into this season physically.
feeling game minds national run
There would be no better feeling than to be able to end this with a run at the national championship. I think it is in the back of our minds, and it is something that we are going to try to keep in our minds game in and game out.
last plays prior win
We didn't make plays prior to that for us to win the game, so that's what it all comes down to. It doesn't come down to the last play.
lived national power win
We lived up to our expectations for the most part. But we want to go out and let everyone know we did everything in our power to win a national championship.
