Every time we hear about how those other teams lost it just motivates us. We get tired of hearing about it.

Rankings don't mean anything. You never know what you're going to get out of a team until the season starts. All the pre-season hype is hype. That's all it is. We didn't think about it. We used it as motivation.

George Mason is Cinderella. Everyone is going to root for them. They're kind of the magic team right now.
