As soon as the game was over, guys were ready to get on the bus, get to BC. It shows the character of our team, to win at BC, a nationally ranked team, on the road. That's what great teams do, they're able to bounce back.

We'd rather not play like that. But we've had a lot of games like that, so we're probably more experienced in those types of situations than other teams.

We came out here and did what we needed to do, and in doing that we were preparing for UNC, too.
guys score
He's able to find guys when they're open. And if they're not, he's open. He's going to score or get fouled. When you play with a big guy like that, it's a lot of fun.
came controlled pressured proves though tried win
We got an A-plus. We came out and did what we wanted to do. We controlled the game, even though they pressured us a lot and tried to get us out of our game. We were able to do what we do. This is a big win for us, and it proves a lot to us and our fans.

close fighting games kept nice win
We just kept fighting and got the win. It'd be nice not to play close games like that, but a win is a win.

With him making plays like that, and guys being able to get open, we are tough to beat. He stepped up like a senior should.
We have to buckle down and make the corrections.
game move stick
We've just got to move on. This game will stick with us (until we play again).
