bad chance good itself missed present regardless
We missed an opportunity, but the good thing is that one more chance does present itself and the bad thing is that it is only one more chance. In the past, regardless of where we are in the tournament, we always have been able to show that we can play well.
felt gone good ready
It felt good for the most part. I was ready to get out there. It's pretty much gone now.
ahead desperate good michigan ok win
We're desperate to play well. We can't just play OK and win . . . we want to play well, feel good and win. We have to play well not just because it's the Michigan game, but because we have a lot still going for us and still ahead of us.
decent good played
When you look at it, when we've all played decent to good to great, I don't think we've lost.
good passes played responsibility step
To their credit, (Iowa) played good defense. But a lot of it was our passes were bad, they were late, or they were a step short, and we take the responsibility for that.
chance good hard playing second work
Laredo is a very good team, and we are going to have to work very hard to have a chance to win. But we've been playing well, and we are in the second round.
couple game good half pick playing
If I don't have a good first half or first couple minutes, I just have to pick it up. As long as I do pick it up... I can't go through the whole game playing bad.
hiding target welcome
We welcome the target on our backs. We're not hiding from anybody.
company people
People don't intentionally (expose their company to harm), but they become complacent.
chance doubted duke elite gotten kentucky last people questioned sweet year
People have always doubted us and questioned our intensity. We've gotten used to it. They didn't think we had a chance last year when he had to play Duke and Kentucky (in the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight).
brings less walking
Even just walking around kind of brings it back, the lightheadedness. Each day that it's there, you get less confident.
ball hang point
At that point you try to get (the lead) to 15, and then you get it to 20 and that's the ball game. But we just let them hang around.
excuse time tired
To be honest, I don't really think so. Everyone is tired this time of year. We can't make the excuse of being tired.
colorful creative design last period pink revolution taking using
We are at a colorful period. The last period that was this colorful was the mid-'50s, when they had all those pink Chevrolets. Now, because of the design revolution taking place, we're using color in a much more creative way.
