aaron against couple finished freshman great passes played playing previous sam second virginia west
Sam played well against West Virginia the previous two games. He finished well in the second half. He got great passes from Aaron a couple of times. He's just a freshman playing against seniors. That's why he's getting better.
against athletic battle found good gut lights shoot win
That was a very good win against a very good team, well-coached and a tough, athletic group. We found a way to gut it out. We didn't shoot the lights out and it wasn't a pretty game, but we found a way to battle through.
again early half hole hurt improved rushing second
We were so impatient, rushing things offensively and that hurt our defense. We improved in the second half but again that early hole was huge.
against couple freshmen improved ready second teams three
We had three freshmen out there most of the second half, and I don't think many teams are doing that against this kind of competition. It's not to get ready to play in a couple of years, they're going to be out there now. Through 11 games, they've improved significantly, especially on defense, and you don't see that very often out of freshmen.
against battle came continued east game good ncaa physical shooting team

It's been a strength of ours, executing against the zone. We didn't do as good a job today. ... The key was that we didn't finish off the first half. We should have been up by more.
against basketball best college conference few good great names playing teams
It's just more of the same. The names have changed, but you know you're going to have good teams every night. We're playing against the best people. There's a few more, but they're all good. To be in the best conference in college basketball is a great thing for the university.

We made some great adjustments against the zone in the second half. We had a little more penetration and movement.
