iowa kept minutes played points state
Iowa State played fantastic. When we were up by 10 points (with 6 1/2 minutes to play), Iowa State could have said 'we're done,' but they kept fighting.
exploit gary knows risk survive
If you can survive all that heat, you can exploit on the back side. Gary knows that. It's a risk he takes.
arms capable
I don't know if you can put your arms around really what she's capable of.
game
Without Erin's three-point shots, we're not even in the game in the first half.
game
We probably set the game back about 15 years with our turnovers.
afraid bench good
Was I afraid of losing? Not so much, I thought we had a good lead. Our bench play is better than what we showed today.
ball blow hard playing scores today
Today we had a combination of playing really, really hard and the ball going in the basket, particularly from 3-point range. When you do those two things together, scores can blow up pretty quickly.
create maintain people status
We don't have people who just come in and maintain the status quo. They create something, and that's a bonus.
afraid defense guards heck identity supplies toughness type wants
Our identity encompasses toughness now because she supplies it. She wants the ball, she's not afraid of any type of defense or any type of circumstance, and she guards the heck out of people.
floor guards kicked
Our guards were intimidated and Connecticut kicked us down the floor for 40 minutes.
basketball both courtney far fit guard hinges kobe
I think women's basketball hinges on not just the play of, but the personalities of, its superstars. I think Courtney and Candace fit that bill. But as far as a head-to-head rivalry, they don't play the position. It's kind of like Kobe and Shaq. It's different. They're both really, really good, but they aren't going to guard each other.
adjusting altitude bit carried coming crew good half momentum second time took trouble
I thought our crew was good once we got going. We had a little trouble adjusting to the altitude at the beginning. It took us a little bit to get our second wind. We carried some momentum into half time and I thought we were really good coming out in the second half.
behind clearly finished gave grief guys kinds saying second separated team
I think that Baylor is clearly and you guys gave me all kinds of grief for saying this during Big 12 play but clearly they are the second-best team in the league. They finished in second place and they separated themselves, is my point, from the guys that where behind them.
good obviously team time
I think we are still getting better. Sometimes at this time of year, it's obviously about how good you are, but it's also about how you are together. And I don't know if I've been around a team that's any better together.
