Famous Quotes & Sayings

Don Buford

As a team, we had a real good spring. Guys swung the bats real well, then all of a sudden everybody went into a slight batting slump together and right now they seem to be working their way out of that and hitting the ball consistently. We've hit some balls hard and haven't had any luck with the hits falling in, but now they're starting to fall in and that's the difference in winning.

As long as you can stop the running game, you have a chance. They can throw for 400 yards, but if they can't run the ball, you have a good chance. Someone's going to drop the ball or you'll get a knockdown on third down. Stopping the run comes first. As long as we can do that, we'll be successful.

Geno Auriemma

As long as we play defense like that and keep people in the 50s we'll be all right. Some nights you're going to shoot the ball poorly and it's going to be 60-something to 50-something. Some nights you're going to shoot 60-something percent and it's going to be 90-something to 50-something. But you've got to be able to play with the game on the line, which I think we showed (Saturday).

Our defense gave up 22 points with that three, so I don't think the kids were worried about it at all. They hadn't played as well as they could have, so I liked how they came out in the first five minutes of the second half. That set the tone for the rest of the game.
