game tempo work
We put so much work into it, especially this week, of really getting the game going, the tempo going.
guys pick
Everybody's got to pick it up. I can't put guys on my back like that.
against dominant knew team win
They know we?re a dominant team in the Big East. They knew a win against Connecticut would do a lot for them.
guys lost realize starting streak winning
After the Marquette game, guys got tighter as a team. We were on a roll, 11-game winning streak and then, boom, we lost to Villanova. But we got even tighter. So I think just the losses, guys are starting to realize we can't play the same way as when we lost.
arrows coach dominating pointed sure team thinking
After we lost, I did a lot of thinking about dominating this game, getting the team going. Coach said this was just like any other game, but we really had bull?s-eyes on this one, circled it, had all the arrows pointed to it. We made sure we were focused.
four history ncaa pleased regardless unheard win
If I win a championship, I?m pleased. But If I don?t win an NCAA championship, I?m not pleased ? regardless of how well I?m doing. It is to make history out there. Two championships in four years? In this day and age, that?s unheard of.
expects great guys puts strong
That's coach. It's something guys come to expect. I think he expects so much from us, and he puts a lot into us energy-wise to make us better players, to make us great players. . . . You can't come to Connecticut if you're not going to have a strong mindset.
country heads team took
They can keep their heads up because they took the No. 1 team in the country down to the wire.
bullies calling played shows stronger turned
They were calling themselves, ?The New Bullies of the Big East.' It shows what we did to them tonight. We played a lot stronger than we did at Villanova and it turned out good.
beating brought died felt fire played tough
This was a continuation of Villanova. We still felt that intensity, that fire of beating Villanova. We brought it right through to (Wednesday's) game. It died out, because they (South Florida) played tough defense.
early looked
Early on, we were just out of whack. It looked like we didn't know what to do in the first half.
everybody goes pick teammates
Everybody goes through that. I think it was up to his teammates to pick him up, because it?s us who need him out there to do what he does and do what he does so well.
caliber good team
This isn't good enough. Not with the caliber of team that we have.
knocking trying
They're trying to make history, and knocking off Connecticut is a big deal.
