I thought we played pretty hard tonight, which is all I'm concerned about. They're a tough team to guard, and whether we play here or in Alaska, I just want to make sure our team plays hard.

For us to win, we needed Pitt to shoot poorly, and they shot extremely well. We just had too much of an uphill battle.

He didn't play like a freshman today. He took care of the basketball. I thought that was a big play for us.

We're not good enough to match up with those guys one-on-one. We have to rely on solid team defense to contain those guys.

With them being a five seed, if there's (that many) teams better then them, I'd like to see who they are.

Winning 20 games this season is a huge accomplishment. When you look at the list of teams to have done it, we're proud, but we didn't play this year to win 20 games. We're playing to do bigger and better things.
