accepted bring challenge game intensity lacking level playing reason scared team top whatever
That's the intensity level you have to bring into each game and we were lacking that for whatever reason. We weren't scared going into tonight, not at all. We accepted the challenge of playing the top team in the Pac-10 at their place.
accepted basketball challenge felt game good insulted played teams thinking though walk
We were thinking before the game they were going to take us for granted. I felt insulted by it, because a lot of teams think they are going to walk all over us. The good thing though is that basketball is not played on paper, and we accepted the challenge tonight.
laid nobody question
There's no question that if I play better we have a chance. But I pretty much laid an egg. There is nobody else to put this on but me.
wrong
We've had enough things go wrong this season.
afford came
We came out there wide-eyed and scared. We can't afford to have that many turnovers; we're not that offensively gifted.
run second
We just didn't play well in the second half. They went on a run and we didn't answer.
bad energy expect games less played row season
I don't expect anything less than everything everyone can give. We've played some bad games this season as a team, but we've never played two in a row without energy and without effort.
beating heart stop
My heart is going to have to stop beating before I stop playing.
guarantee nobody thinking
We were thinking they were going to take us for granted. I guarantee you nobody in here thought we were going to win.
blow game luxury worried
We've had some unfortunate breaks. We don't have the luxury to blow another game because we're worried about the past.
time
Up there they were up by two at the half, this time we were up by two. Other than that, it was pretty much the same.
bad fun letting mainly playing ruin
We started a little streak. That's what we wanted to do. But I think mainly we are having fun out there and we are playing with confidence. We are not getting down on ourselves. We're not letting one bad thing ruin the game.
matter name uniform
We're not going to quit. It doesn't matter what uniform we're wearing, or what name is on the back of our jerseys. We're just not going quit.
apply bad confidence good half lessons second
We didn't do anything, nothing at all, after halftime. We'll take the confidence we got from a good first half and apply the lessons from a bad second half. We've got to do both.
