Give Virginia Tech credit. They outplayed us right from the tip. They were more energized for whatever reason.
credit tech virginia
You've just got to give Virginia Tech credit. They were more energized or something.
ball happened turned
It happened so quick. We turned the ball over, they made threes on the other end, and just like that we're out of the game.
win
I still feel like we have to get that win at Miami.
easily felt great looking score win
Looking back on the (Boston College) game, we could have easily won. It felt great to go out and score 37 points, but overall, it was a disappointment, because we did not win the game.
effect game importance
We know the importance of this game and the effect it will have on us getting into the tournament.
court great kinda love rush seconds
We've got great fans, I didn't know they would rush the court with 1.7 seconds left. That was kinda crazy! But I love our fans.
attack main patient
We just have to be patient and attack the gaps. The main thing is to get what we want.

We took a step in the right direction.
plays stepped
He just stepped up and made the big plays that really got us going.
consider
I feel like to not even consider it would be stupid. But I feel like I'll be back.
challenge coaches instead learning mad mistakes raise taking trying understand voice win
I feel like we're able to take coaching. You know the coaches are going to raise their voice and they're going to try to challenge you. Now we're taking it in and learning from our mistakes instead of getting mad at the coaches. We understand now that's their job. They're just trying to make us better. We understand they have to win and we have to win. It's just a learning process.
ball guys score
I feel like it's the chemistry. We have a lot of guys who can score the ball and we play to each other's strengths. That's when we're at our best.
I can't really get in the stance. I can't explode. I can't be me.
