explain felt game nobody playing poorly
It was a little frustrating because it was unexpected. Nobody really felt that we were going to go into this game playing as poorly as we did. There's no way to explain it. It's just an off night.
beat biggest east game good lost mentally reason team tonight
I think that's what makes it so frustrating. You look at a game like tonight and you see how good we can look and then you say the only reason we lost tonight is because we beat ourselves. We let another team come back into it and we mentally kind of got shaken. I think that's something that's going to be the biggest thing going into the (Big East and NCAA) tournaments.
coming game senior tired whatever
I don't ever really feel like I get tired when I'm on the court. I just want to play and do whatever I can. As a senior you look at every game and you could see kind of an end coming and you want to be in there as much as you can and make the most of it.
asked believed carolina game hard nobody north worked
If you asked us after the North Carolina game (loss in December) if we would get to this point, nobody would have believed it. But we all worked so hard to get here.
definitely games home matter playing somewhere time tournament
It's definitely different having to go somewhere for the first time, not being at home for the first two games. But that's kind of exciting, too. No matter where you play, no matter who you're playing against, it's tournament time and that's always fun.
build felt game step took whatever
Overall, it felt like we didn't come and play. We wanted to build off the LSU game and it felt like we took a step back. We were scatterbrained for whatever reason. We'll get it back. We all know what we have to do.
adds anytime force game post true
Brittany's really the only true post that we have on this team, someone that's just a big force inside. So anytime we get her in the game it kind of adds another dimension.
definitely games good maturity push sign tough whatever
Sometimes you're just going to have games like that for whatever reason. And just for us to be able to kind of push through it and tough it out, it's definitely a good sign. It's a sign of maturity for our team.
both definitely game riding
Definitely a lot is riding on this game. I think it?s definitely a big game for both teams.
ball coach days game points practice pushing running transition trying
That's something that Coach was harping on (during the break) at practice. We didn't have a game for like 11 days, but those days at practice, that's all we were doing, just running and pushing the ball in transition and trying to get more points off transition.
days four games guess maybe playing row three
Maybe it was them playing four days in a row and us playing three games in a row; I don't know. I guess it was just one of those nights.
coach knows prepare team time
I think that's the way that coach has always, kind of something he's always been know for. He knows how to prepare a team for this time of year.
seem sick
You think you'd get sick of each other eventually. But it doesn't ever seem to get like that.
couple crunch last past playing realizing regular senior step time
I think we?re all realizing that it?s the culmination of our last regular season. This is the time where every senior in the past had to step up and make things happen; (Will?s) been playing like crunch time for the past couple games.
