good talented teams tough
These were tough teams, talented teams with good players.
accept caught close game plays team
Our team will accept any challenge, and if we get caught in a close game we just make plays at the end.
bully coward ego pride seem step team teams
The team doesn't want to be bullied. It makes you look like a coward and makes you look small. Our team has more of an ego or a pride thing. Teams seem to try and bully us and we step up and take the challenge.
help sweet team thinking trying
Washington, D.C.. That's all I was thinking about ? going to D.C. I've never been to the Sweet 16. I was trying to help my team get there.
came defensive intensity question team tough whether
There's no question whether this team is tough or not. We just need to have more defensive intensity in the first half. Everyone on this team is tough. We just came out flat.
apologize difficult position teammates
Most importantly, ... I want to apologize to my teammates for the difficult position that I have put them through.

I think our team can take any challenge a team throws at us. If we get caught in a close game, I think we can make the right plays late in the game.
against beat loose percent second shot team time
We couldn't get a stop. We just couldn't. That's only the second time a team has shot 50 percent against us ... They beat us on the glass. They went after every loose ball. They made big shots.
lie minutes syracuse team thinking within
We can't get bigheaded. We can't just think every team is going to lie down after we get a big victory. We were thinking Syracuse was going to lie down after those first 30 minutes and they actually crawled back to get within two possessions. You can't do that.
capable capitalize focus good indiana offensive sure team
We need to make sure we focus. A good team like Syracuse, I think they can capitalize a lot better than Indiana can. We need to keep them off the offensive glass, they're capable of having a big game.
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.
team twice
We're twice as good. He's the team leader.

The No. 2 team just lost by (25) points. That just goes to show that anything can happen at any point.
