The reason you can be confident is because our league is so good.
everybody figure figured gotten knows league learned nice six win won
We have done a lot of nice things here in our first six years. We have gotten better every year. We have won a lot of league games. We learned how to win on the road. We've won a league championship. Now we need to figure out how to play well in St. Louis. Creighton has figured that out. That's why everybody knows who Creighton is.

We're 2-0 and we took care of our home court. This league is loaded. (Bradley) looked like a pro team out there.
hurt league led played selection shot sweet
I don't think we played particularly well in the first half. We didn't play together. We didn't play the way that led us to a league championship and the Sweet 16. Our shot selection hurt us in the first half.
best east fired league
I don't know if it's a measuring stick. But I do know one thing: we're fired up to play a Big East school. It's the best league in the country.
best carried league lose matter ncaa practice pressure round wait
If you could have been at our practice the other day, the pressure is off. We had our best practice we've had in months. We carried that 23-year wait around with us. No matter what happens, if we go and lose in the first round and don't make the NCAA Tournament, you can't take that league championship away from us.
believe coaching league players three top
This league is good, from top to bottom. The coaching is good, the players are good. I wouldn't have said that three years ago, but I really believe it now.

It's hard not to hit a bump in this league because everybody is so good. We're playing a little better. I think losing a couple of games might have brought us together as a team.

We kept going to him, kept thinking he was going to get tired. He was tremendous in the second overtime.

We got nothing out of P.J.. He didn't give us defense and that's usually what he gives us.

We had some unfair scrutiny, but we didn't feel the pressure. I think this obviously helps. It helps Craig Littlepage. I think he feels a little better about the Valley.

Finally, we made the shot. I'm excited. I'm happy. I'm tired of it happening to us.
