against biggest bunch care expected game nobody pulling stuff
Everyone has been pulling against us. We're used to it. From day one, nobody expected us to be where we are now. Everyone expected us to be in the NIT and now we're in the biggest game we can be in in college. All that stuff is a bunch of hype. We don't care about that stuff, all we have to do is go out and execute.
games lost mindset motivates road tougher
It motivates us a little more. Away games are a lot tougher to win. So, our mindset has to be right. We've lost two road games already this year. I know all of us think about that.
against everybody execute game road
I look at this is another road game, because everybody is going against us obviously. It's another game that we have to come in and execute more than we execute at home. It's crazy.
autograph ball best far games lee might played proud saw seen shooting shot
If Peyton saw how Lee shot the ball, he'd have to be proud of him. I don't know as far as (Manning) it being an inspiration or anything but Lee played great, one of the best games I've ever seen him play. . . . If Peyton saw Lee shooting the ball like he did, he might want his autograph now.
coming dollars fans far games home people personally spending thousands wrong
I could be wrong but a lot of the fans that are here now, I don't think they were here in the beginning. I think it's crazy. I personally feel like there were a lot of people who weren't coming to the games at home when they were free. Now they're spending thousands of dollars to come to games when we're far away.
everybody psyched wants
Everyone is psyched about getting in them. Everybody wants to play in them.
defense eager everybody pride wants
Everybody is eager to play defense this year. Everybody wants to get stops, everybody wants to press, everybody wants to do all that stuff, there's a lot of pride on defense.
everybody forever nobody remembered wants win
Everybody wants to win a championship, and to win the first one would be great. It's a milestone. Nobody else has done it so (we would) be remembered forever for that.
attention best goes nobody
The best part is nobody is jealous. Because if we keep winning, the attention goes to all of us, anyway.
enjoying glad slow stuck
I'm really glad Tushar stuck with it, even if it was slow at first. I'm really enjoying it.
anybody hope mess uniforms
I hope those uniforms don't mess anything up if anybody is superstitious.
coming crossed life mind state
I never in my life thought I'd end up in the state of Minnesota. It never crossed my mind coming to Minnesota.
unhappy
I'm unhappy because we just lost. We thought we had it in our hands, but we just didn't execute.
believe excited glad hard minnesota state weather
It's hard to believe we're here in the state of Minnesota. I never thought I'd go to Minnesota for any reason. But here we are, and we're excited to be here. I'm glad I don't live in weather like this, though.
