beat beats best character coach example gave good home keeping playing road run showing solid talks team win winning
Coach (Weber) always talks about how good of a team we can be. Like, he gave the example of how we beat Georgetown at home, and Georgetown beats Duke. I know it's a home win for us. But I think we're up there with some of the best teams. If we keep winning on the road and showing some character and keeping playing solid basketball, I think we can make a run at it.
against playing practiced ready stuff
I like playing against them and we just went through their stuff and practiced for what they do. So we should be able to get ready in a hurry.

I'm just going to try to enjoy the ride I've had playing with Dee, the coaches and the team. That's what's going to make me happy right now, thinking about the run I've had here.

They're a great team, they played Michigan State tough, they've been playing well at home. They're one of those teams that people overlook and at the end of the year they always knock off a Wisconsin or an Illinois and mess up the Big Ten running.

It's a nice place for the families to go. We're just going to play basketball. I know if we were playing on Mars, our parents would have come anyway.

They switched everything and denied passes and did a good job of taking away what we wanted to do. We just played a lot harder when we were playing well.

This shows we're making progress. This is one of the first times we put a team away. Maybe Oregon. But we really made a statement that we want to get better. And we are.
battle game guys percent realize starting
Every game is going to be a battle and you have to play 100 percent every time. I think the young guys are starting to realize that.
careers lose means ready
We lose one more game, we're going home, and that means Dee and I, our careers are over. We have to come ready to play as a team.
final last special
Last year, there was a little more pressure. We're more of an underdog. We want to be special and get back to the Final Four.
fun
It doesn't feel good. It was a fun ride, but right now it doesn't feel that good.

Some of the players on our team have never lost at home. Dee (Brown) and I have only lost once, and that was a pretty bad feeling. It gives us motivation to win.
bit led sucked
I think we just sucked it up a little bit and one thing led to another.
