accepted adds final helps knowing national recognized start sweet tradition unless winning
I think our tradition really helps set the bar. Knowing that nothing but winning a national championship is accepted really helps us. We got to the Sweet 16, we got to the Final Four, but we won't be recognized unless we win that national championship. I don't think that adds pressure. I think that helps start the mission.
ball best interest matter people push score selling takes win winning worried
We just do what it takes to win and we're smart. If it's in our best interest to push the ball up the floor, that's what we do. We're not worried about selling tickets. When you're winning games, people come -- no matter what the score is.
bad care good matter side winning
We don't care how it looks. It doesn't matter if it's good or bad as long as we're on the winning side at the end.

accepted helps knowing mission national sets tradition winning
It helps a lot. That's where the mission starts. Our tradition sets the bar. Knowing that nothing but winning a national championship is accepted really helps us.
expect win
I'm a winner. From day one, I expect to win every game. So therefore, I expect to be here.
games memories prepared rather regardless winning
I'd rather be tested. Regardless of what happens, we've made a lot of memories that will never go away. Winning by 20 is nice, but games like these make us that much more prepared and that much better and that much stronger.
played rivalry terribly
We just played terribly defensively in a rivalry game.
bad ball good low results value
We don't take a lot of bad shots. We just value the ball and try to take good shots. If that results in low scoring, then we'll take it.
clock emphasis hard neither playing practice shot team toughest
That was the toughest practice of my career. The emphasis was just playing as hard as you could and really defending. That's what we've done. Sometimes we'll play in practice and neither team scores. There will be shot clock violations. We really defend.
balance phenomenal
That was our key, just to keep 'em off balance all game. We did a phenomenal job.
adversity believed besides explain feels guys incredible injuries job locker pay phenomenal room work year
That was our goal, to keep them off-balance all game. We did a phenomenal job of that. I can't even explain how incredible this feels. Besides the guys in the locker room and our supporters, no one believed we could do it. To work our butts off and go through adversity and injuries all year long and have it pay off, it feels incredible.
collective compared defensive gotten grown says throughout
That says it all. The way we play on the defensive end. If you want to go back to November, it was nonexistent compared to what we do now. We're such a much better team. We're more of a collective unit. We play for each other. We've grown and gotten to know each other throughout the year.
calm hard
I was tired, exhausted. It wasn't too hard to calm down and go to sleep.
