against best game heads seems soon
It would be the same if we were No. 4 or No. 24. Connecticut is Connecticut. They're going to want to take our heads off as soon as we get out there. They're going to be aggressive. It may be the best game they have all season. Everyone seems to have their best game against us.
break few games ncaa next pressure
These next few games are really important. They are the most important games of our year. They can make or break our NCAA chances. There is a lot of pressure on us.

Our team will accept any challenge, and if we get caught in a close game we just make plays at the end.

We need to take advantage of these games and continue to win. They might be a little dinged up, but they are still a really good team. We can't have any slip-ups.
build challenge early execute games late lead offense step win
If we have to win games late, well, we try to get them out of the way early. We try to build a lead early and execute offense late in the game. But if we have to win games like this, I think we can step up to the challenge and win them.
game second tired week
I got kind of tired in the second half. It'll probably take me a week or two to get into game shape. But I don't think there was any rust.
coming game looked minutes since three tired toughest tv waited
This was probably the toughest game since I've been back. I was tired with like three minutes left. I kind of looked at him (Calhoun) for a sub and he said we had a TV timeout coming up. So I waited. I waited it out, but I was tired.
game reason teams won
We see the bracket, but those other teams got there for a reason. They won the first two game just like we did. I don't think you can go out there and take teams lightly.
bear four game sunday tough tuesday worst
We can't lose. We have a tough game Tuesday and a tough one on Sunday (against Villanova). When we get those two out of the way, we have another two left. That's it right there. We just have to bear down for four more games. Then the worst we can do is tie.

It's a big deal, especially with us being from the West Coast. They get a lot of love in the ACC and all that stuff. It's a big statement game for us.

It was probably the toughest game I've ever played in.

It's a game we need to win. We're not focusing on winning the Big East, the Big East standings, the NCAA standings, whatever. They beat us the first time, so we have to get this win.

There was no doubt in my mind the whole game that we were going to win.
