energy felt fired kids prepared second
I felt like the kids were prepared and the kids were fired up. We had a lot of energy in the first half. In the second half, we were a different team.
bones everybody exciting feels great happens hear hits inspired somebody stand
It's even more exciting when you hear it after a great play, when it's more spontaneous... when it just happens because it's the right thing to do or it's the inspired thing to do. Somebody just feels it in their bones that they need to stand up and do that, and then everybody joins in. I think that's when it really hits home.

It?s like they say in golf, you can?t worry about your last bad shot, because the next shot might be a great shot.
beat caught confidence game
They?re going to try and take us out of our game immediately. Emotionally, we can?t get caught up in that. We have to have confidence that we beat them once, and we can beat them again.
defense dug early folks gave held ourselves points teams
A lot of folks will look at this and think it was our offense, but we scored 36 points in the first half. It was our defense early that let us down. That was the key. We'd held teams in the SEC to 17, 19 and 22 points, and we gave up 46 in the first half. We dug ourselves into a hole, but it was the defense.

I really believe these players believe they can beat anybody left on their schedule.
adjust bunch create playing shot time watches
Every time J. J. is playing she watches him on T. V.. J. J. has to create his own shot and he's had to adjust to defenses. We set a bunch of screens, but she's got to be able to create her own shot.
We need to come out with more fire, especially defensively.
doubling job maintain moore post
Our starters, (Kristin) Moore and (Melissa) Hobbs, did an exceptional job doubling the post early, but we didn't maintain it the whole game.

I thought Whitney played very well, especially considering who she was playing against.

I thought we were going to have another miracle. We fought so hard. We came back from the dead. But we just couldn't finish it out.
