figure game hate stop team trying weapons
There are so many weapons in her game that just make us so much better. I'd hate to be the other team trying to figure out how to stop her.
We can get to Boston. If we didn't think we had a chance, we wouldn't even go to Cleveland.
beat bracket feeling looked penn remember team thinking
I looked at the bracket and I thought about it. I've been thinking about (2004, when she made the all-tournament team as a freshman) a lot lately. I remember the feeling of celebrating after we beat Penn State. Hopefully, that's one we can duplicate.
ability huge post score
It was huge for us. Our post players, any one has the ability to score down there.
cut took
Once (Michigan State) cut the lead, we took over from there.
ten title win
If we want to win the Big Ten title we have to win and that's pretty much what it comes down to. If we lose, we get second.
stay
(In the first half) we started to get into their tempo. We wanted to stay away from that.
coach quick took
In the first half, coach got on us a little because we took some quick shots.
box defensive floor opens people played presence
I don't think Erin played bad. It's the things that people didn't notice. The box outs and her defensive presence. Her presence on the floor opens up other things for other people because she can score.
best dominated hard lead playing second
In the second half, we were very, very aggressive. We had the lead (in the first half), but we weren't playing our best basketball. It's so hard to put into words. We just dominated in the second half.
bother composed fortunate good human job letting past rub staying
In the past games, I thought we've done a good job of staying composed and letting little things rub off our backs, but (on Sunday) we let things bother us. We're human and we're going to make mistakes. We're just very fortunate to get the win.
believed came played
If you would have told me we were going to do that, there's no way I would have believed you. We just came out and played really well.
control games second ten
In all honesty, (the Big Ten title) is kind of still in our own hands. We do still control our own destiny. With two games left, it's first or second from here on out.
control ohio prepared ready state
In all honesty, it's still in our hands. We still control our own destiny. We have to go to Ohio State prepared and ready to play.
