figured games team win
This team has figured out how to win games.
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.
close guy guys next night points rely teach win
I think that's the way to the teach the game. I want to be balanced. I don't want to have to rely on one guy to get 18 points every night or two guys to get 18 and 16. That's why we were able to win so many close games, because one night it was Paul, the next night it was Sean. The next night it was Kyle.
capable good played winning
We've got good players, and I thought we were in a pod we were very capable of winning if we played well.
game george good knew mason win
We were going to have to play an awfully good game to win here. We knew that. We know how good George Mason is.
ad fans home kansas lost row run since state sure third took tremendous win won year
It's not a hump, it's a mountain. My AD knows. My fans know where we were when I took this job. My first year, we lost 11 in a row and I didn't know if we were ever going to win a game. My third year we were 3-3, and I wasn't sure I would keep my job. We lost at home to Kansas State and ever since then it has been a tremendous run to get where we are today. We accomplished something we haven't in 23 years, we won a championship.
anybody asked figured game looked might though win
I told anybody who asked me that I thought we were going to play well offensively. We were fresh. We might have figured out a way to win the game 65-63 if we didn't make shots. But because we did it looked easy, even though it actually wasn't.
good halftime strong style win
It's a big win because of the way we won. That wasn't our style of game. I told them at halftime that we're not very good at football, but we've got to play football. We had to be strong and go at the basket.
coach great win
They've got great players. Mac's a great coach, but you don't win without great players.
almost perfect
When you do that, you've almost had a perfect day.
confident league reason
The reason you can be confident is because our league is so good.
kept second thinking tremendous
We kept going to him, kept thinking he was going to get tired. He was tremendous in the second overtime.
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.
