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.
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.

If we don't have the most talented team in the country, we are among the top three or four.

When we want to, we can put points on the board and its just a matter of really focusing in on the team. It took us a couple minutes to focus, but once we did we showed at times how good of a team we can be.

against basketball chance defense great half offense ourselves redeem second shooting team took west
A chance to redeem ourselves. We just weren't ourselves in the Villanova game. They took us out of our offense and defense and in the second half we didn't get out on shooters as much as we could. If we do the same thing against West Virginia, it's going to be the same thing because they're a great three-point shooting team as well.
came east giving intensity matching matter mentality team toughest
They came in with the mentality that they (Villanova) are the toughest team in the Big East and we came in with the same one. It was just a matter of us matching that same intensity and giving it right back to them.
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.
defense happen honestly opposed order practice realize running shut stopping strength stuff team teams win
Honestly I don't think that will happen just because of the way our team is. We realize that our strength is on defense and in order for us to win games, we have to shut teams down. In practice (Monday) we really concentrated on stopping their stuff as opposed to running ours.
