bottom came close couple despite expected fully game games happened however last line points until whether win winning
We all fully expected to be in Indianapolis despite what happened the last couple games with the close calls. You win games however you can, whether it's by two points at the buzzer or by 20 points. The bottom line is we were winning games up until (Sunday). We came up one game short.
came defensive games knowing matter seeing situation somebody step
It's just a matter of seeing the situation and knowing that somebody has to step up for us to win games like this. When (South Florida) came back, somebody had to make a play, get a rebound, make a defensive stop.
again bottom games line ncaa perfect survive
There are no perfect games in the NCAA Tournament. It's just survive and advance. The bottom line is we're not going home. I was sleepwalking this morning. But you know you have to get up and do it again today.
couple depth experience games helps last pull start teams toward wear
It helps a lot but it's not just experience. It has a lot to do with conditioning and the depth of our team. The last couple of games we've really been able to just wear other teams down toward the end of the game and really start to pull away.

We just want it so bad. I'm sure George Mason wants it just as bad. It's 40 minutes to Indianapolis.

We got lucky on that one. They didn't get a chance to steal that momentum.
couple keeps last team winning worry
Things just haven't been going my way the last couple of games, but, you know, as long as the team keeps winning that's all that really matters. We're doing well. We're 14-1 so I can't really worry about myself too much.

The Villanova loss was tough but we showed a lot of grit and poise bouncing back from that game.

There's really no excuse for it. We're too good a team.
excuse few foot heart last minutes
There's really no excuse for it. But also I think we showed a lot of heart in the last few minutes and put the foot back on the pedal.
definitely game gave needed people spark step
Rashad gave us a spark in the beginning. We had a lot of people step up tonight. This was definitely the kind of game where we needed everyone.
game physical proven running team throughout type year
There's going to be a whole lot of pushing, a whole lot of shoving, but that's the type of game that they like. We do play well in those type of games. We're a running team, but I think we've proven throughout this year that we can be a physical team as well. We're just going to have to prove it even more so.
wish
I wish I knew. Otherwise, it wouldn't have happened.
felt good time
It felt good to make a play like that at a time like that.
