afraid games large last lose number people possible rivalry tried
The rivalry was the last thing on my mind. I tried to downplay it as much as possible because we aren't used to having a large number of people at games and I was afraid we'd lose focus.
accept compete games move opportunity situation somebody step
We had to step back and re-focus. We had to accept the situation we were in, and not look for somebody else to blame, and then move on. We still had games to play, and the opportunity to compete for a championship.
games guard guys kidding lucky saw stopping
That was our focus, stopping him. I saw the film from other games and I went, 'Oh, are you kidding me? This kid is for real.' We have two guys who can guard a guy like that and we were lucky we did.
confidence expect games gives level maintain outside people program stay teams week winning
Right now it's up to us to maintain our level of play and stay in first place. Winning these two games this week gives us a lot more confidence because these are teams that people outside our program don't expect us to beat.
expecting facing games grind knew national ncaa people point success winning
People were expecting a lot of things from this team, and they don't realize, before we got here, they were winning 11 games and facing NCAA sanctions. They wanted national championship success right away, and we knew it wasn't going to be like that. It was going to be a long grind and process. We've done that really well, to the point where we expect to win.
chance close couple face finish games hurt left lost realize season somebody strong toward
You have to kind of look yourself in the face and realize you're a part of it. We didn't finish the season well, and I think that hurt us. We feel like we left it in somebody else's hands. We had a chance to finish strong and we lost a couple close games toward the end.
again games good main monday nine points three
That's nine games now without a loss, we go to Wycombe on Monday and again three points is the main thing. We're having a good spell.
basically finish games left next regardless six somebody tough year
Regardless of what you all were told, when you basically tell somebody with six games left that they?re not going to be here next year, I think it?s pretty tough to finish the year out.

This is a launchpad. We now have three games out of four at home and the table is so tight that we are only five points off the play-offs.

We just wanted to do a thank you to him and bring members out to wish him well on the PGA Tour.

We just got lucky in here a couple of times. We worked hard, we battled and we got points.

We weren't strong enough, and they made savvy plays. Vincent is a great player, and the defense of their whole team was great.
ask
When all is lost, ask the I.R.S. -- they'll find something.
defended job three tough
We have to do a better job defending. We haven't defended for three games. We haven't been tough enough lately. But we have to give them (Buckeyes credit).
