darn last practice shoot weeks
We've had a lot of practice the last two weeks and it showed today. When we shoot well, we're pretty darn good.
bit good kept practice saying sweet
I kept saying we weren't any good when practice started, and now we're part of the Sweet 16. We just keep getting a little bit better.
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.
continuing expect focus guys mean practice stay
The guys have been pretty shielded from it. I expect practice to go well and our focus to stay where it is. I don't see us changing. That doesn't mean we're going to play great. But I expect us to because we're continuing to practice well.

When you do that, you've almost had a perfect day.

The reason you can be confident is because our league is so good.

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

This team has figured out how to win games.
defense gives
We got nothing out of P.J.. He didn't give us defense and that's usually what he gives us.
craig feels helps obviously unfair
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.
happening tired
Finally, we made the shot. I'm excited. I'm happy. I'm tired of it happening to us.
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.

Both Jared and Gabe are fine young men, and I wish them both the best in their future endeavors.

We can't make a jump shot.. It's wearing on us.
