definitely good starts stuff
It's definitely good to get into the season. The trash-talking and stuff starts now.
bang coach lift physically practice room sure weights
That's what we're in this room for. We come in here, we lift weights and we get strong, not only physically but mentally. And coach makes sure in practice that we bang each other, so that will never get us off our game.
bigger crazier crowds front played
Not at all. We have played in front of bigger crowds and crowds that are a lot crazier than that.
everybody heading matter time together wins
It's only a matter of time before everybody is clicking, doing everything right and getting some wins together heading into the tournament.
It makes you feel like all you have is your team. So you do everything you can to win.
chance family love stuff team
It's good, I guess, for my family because they don't have a chance to see me in person and stuff like that very often. But I'm only going down there for one reason. I love my family, but my team is my family right now.

It?s going to be a different type of game. Kentucky has size and they have versatility.
definitely start tough
It was definitely important, because we have two more tough games. To start out this way is great.

It was something we were ready for but didn't expect it. They came out and gave it their all and we didn't respond how we should have.

I've been thinking about that ever since it happened. It's something I don't want to have to happen this year, because it's going to stick with me for the rest of my life.
since thinking
I've been thinking about that ever since it happened.
kept run
The run we went on, at the beginning, it kind of kept us in the game.
good playing teams time tough
They're a tough team. We couldn't let up at all. Every time we made a run, they made one right back at us. It was two good teams playing each other.
