blow care chuck cried great guy happen hate obviously tough year
He is obviously done for the year so that's a tough blow for our team. We're really disappointed for Chuck and sad. I care about him so much. I cried with him the other day -- you hate to see that happen to a young person. And he's just a great guy and he was having a great year.
carry chuck difference gained loss played players step stunned
We were stunned (after the loss to Ole Miss) when Chuck went down, and we played like it. But now we've gained some confidence. We've had some different players step up and carry us. That's been the difference between then and now.
chuck gives lead positive roll start team though today winning
Chuck will still lead this team even though he'll be on the sidelines. Winning always gives you a lot of confidence. We are going to start today and we are not going to roll over. We are not going to make excuses, pout and whine. We are going to buckle down, be positive with one another and play.
chuck great player players
Chuck is a great player for us. But we have some other players that are great for us too.
carry chuck davis high hurt knows level load obviously
He's obviously had to carry more of the load when (senior forward) Chuck Davis got hurt. He knows he has to play at a high level for us to have a chance.
floor freshmen seen series
This will be the most freshmen on the floor that this series has seen in a long time.
attacked bit couple holes late pickle stay teams wind zone
We had a couple of different things we did. I didn't think they attacked it well at times. Sometimes, you can stay in it too long and teams can find holes in your zone and I thought they did a couple of times late in the game. We wind up in a little bit of a pickle when we don't have depth.
huge understand
We understand this would be a huge, huge upset.

This team is much more physical and athletic than that Stanford team. They're also a much better defensive team.
definition team
This was the definition of a team win.
foot gas goals left pedal reach work
We're going to win, 100 percent. We've got a lot of work left to do to reach our goals. We're not going to take our foot off the gas pedal at all.
depth wore
To be honest, I think Kentucky's depth wore us down a little bit. I sensed we got a little tired. I think they were a little fresher than we were and that's just who we are right now. There's nothing we can do about that.
absolute best country game kids super teams time
Every game is like the absolute biggest, hugest game. It's like the Super Bowl. There are so many teams around the country that are in that same position. You just have to go play. The kids are having fun. This is the best time of the year. This is what you play for.
appreciate heard matter opportunity soon tremendous troops
As soon as I heard about it, I thought, 'I'm going no matter when it is,' ... It's a tremendous opportunity for us to show our troops how much we appreciate what they're doing.
