It was painful at times. I've watched bits and pieces of the whole game several times this week and it was a tremendous basketball game and they just kept coming back.
bit credit schedule
The schedule is a little bit different this year. Don't give us too much credit yet.
bit shock
I don't know what to think, I'm in a bit of shock right now.
bit created four half offensive played rebounds second shots
In the first half I thought we were just a little lethargic. That created a little bit of a gap. In the second half they only got four offensive rebounds and we played our tails off. We just couldn't make shots drop.
bit came character defense good guards kevin pitt realize shots took tried
Kevin came in here on a mission. I thought we were a little bit out of character at Pitt. We probably tried to do a little bit too much and probably didn't realize what good defense Pitt plays. We took shots we thought were good and they weren't because Pitt guards you.
good stress trying win
I'm trying to stress with (my team) how good this win is.
couple four games gave great learn mentally minute team three tough
In games like this there are little three or four minute spans when you've got to be mentally tough enough when that other team is really challenging you. They're distracting your game and you can't give in and I thought we gave in a couple of times and it will be a great thing for us to learn from.
far momentum
I know they have a lot to gain. But we're going in with a lot to gain, too, as far as momentum for the tournament.

I know we'll be walking into a hotbed. They have a lot to gain by a win over West Virginia. But we're going in there with a lot to gain as well, in terms of momentum going into the Big East Tournament.
far surprise talent
Nothing will be a surprise to us as far as the talent level.
against basically challenge extra played playing relaxing time volleyball
It's not a very relaxing time to have an extra day or two off for the coaches. It's always a challenge playing them because they've basically played volleyball against us on the backboards.
beating coming confident
It's not about beating the No. 1 team, it's about getting better every day. However, we should be confident coming out of this game.
corners glad guys kick
I'm glad he made it. They had their guys in the corners to try to kick it out for the tie.
