care everybody far finally focus forward games looking state talking
We try not to look too far ahead. We've had some big games come before in this season. We had to take care of (Boston College) and N.C. State and now the game is finally here and we can focus on that big game everybody has been talking about. We're looking forward to it.
far finally focus forward game looking talking
We try not to look too far ahead. But now the game is finally here and we can focus on the big game everyone has been talking about, that we've been looking forward to.
good playing plays running
We weren't playing very well. We weren't running our plays well and we weren't playing good defense.
basket felt great half lead maintain needed second slowly stops took
We felt great at halftime. We scored the first basket of the second half (but) we didn't really get the stops that we needed to maintain the lead that we had. They just slowly crept up on us and took the lead.
felt game good great played position win
We felt great at halftime. We felt like we were in good position to win the game if we played like we played in the first half.
difference games last needed
We really needed that. She could be the difference in the big games from last year.
final finally game last lost playing relaxed start
We've lost the last two years in that game to get to the Final Four. To finally get over that, I think we'll be more relaxed once we start playing again.
bad dwell game
I was over it when the game ended. I try not to dwell on things that happen. It was a bad game. It was unacceptable to me, but I just have to keep moving.
amount base fan front good gotten larger playing since
I think since I've been here, our fan base has gotten larger and larger. I think we're used to playing in front of pretty big crowds. It's not like the men's crowds. I think we have a good amount of fans, and I think we're comfortable playing in those situations, those environments.
against dig glad result
You have to dig down sometimes. I'm just glad we won. Against a better team, the result probably would have been different.
early frustrated guess playing woke
I think I was frustrated early on because we weren't playing very well. I guess we woke up. We got things together, got things rolling.
best fought happy hard took
We fought and took their best shot. We weren't really able to get ours, so we're just happy to get this win. We really fought hard for it.
best deliver fought shot took
We fought and fought and fought. I think we took their best shot without ever being able to deliver ours.
beaten close excellent good high looked open played ranked team
We haven't beaten a team that was ranked so high by as many points. Usually, they're pretty close games. I think we just played an excellent all-around game. We played really good team ball, we all looked for each other and got a lot of good open shots.
