beat last team
Loyola was just the last team to beat us.
behind crowd hands hopefully knocking last maybe people pull run upset year
They've been knocking off people by big scores. We know we have our hands full; but hopefully with our crowd behind us, we can give them a run like we did last year and maybe pull the upset of the tournament.
bench came difference game last seem year
I think the big difference in the game - and it was something we lacked last year - is that our bench came through. It didn't seem like it was a day for starters.
came defense happened job last offense tremendous
I thought we just did a tremendous job in the last 26 seconds. It came down to one play and our defense happened to be a little better than their offense on that play.
biggest confidence deeper game gas last offensive playing ran result second seven team
I think our confidence is the result of how we've been playing. We're a much better offensive team this year. We're a much more diversified. But I think the biggest thing is, we're a lot deeper than we were last year. I think we kind of ran out of gas in the second game because we were playing seven people.
basketball felt good last says team win
I felt we had a good basketball team. To win 23 of our last 25 says a lot about the kids. They're not a team that quits.
experience glad last loved team travel
I'm glad that they were excited. I know a lot of them weren't on the last team and would've loved the experience to travel and go away.
experience last sure
I'm sure it will be an experience that will last their lifetime.
bunch people spend talking time
We don't spend a lot of time talking about the streak. We just have a bunch of people who aren't used to losing, and don't want to lose. That's the way they play.
confidence gotten playing point sixth
She's like a sixth starter. She's gotten to the point where she's playing with confidence.
ability floor great score shooting touch
She has the ability to score from anywhere. She has a great shooting touch and can score from inside, 3-pointers, or just put it on the floor and take it to the basket.
brings coming energy instant kid
She brings a lot of energy, which is one thing that you like from a kid coming off the bench. She's like a microwave. She makes things happen. She's instant offense, she's instant defense, she's instant rebounding, which is something that you need.
defense game georgia great inside obviously played presence second slowly tremendous
Obviously we started slowly in the second half, it was disappointing, but their defense got after it. They're just a tremendous team. I thought we played a great game today. Obviously Georgia had too many weapons, they had such an inside presence with Humphrey.
good team
The good thing about this team is, we're a pretty even-keeled team. We never get too high. We never get too low.
