We didn't run our offense effectively. We just stood around too much and made it too easy for Duke to guard us.
arena challenge civic establish greatest history ourselves possibly program prove school step themselves tough trying underdog yes
When you step into an arena like the Civic Center, with so much history that they've made in there, yes you do come in as the underdog because they've done what they've had to do over the years to prove themselves as possibly the greatest program in the country. We're trying to establish ourselves as a powerhouse school as well. It's going to be a tough challenge to see where we are as a team.

I got slammed across the head pretty hard. I actually blacked out.

clicking defense needed offense pick second time
We weren't energized, we didn't have any energy. Our offense wasn't clicking the way it should have been, and our defense wasn't the best. It was just the time that we needed to pick it up, especially in the second half.

My eye's on the prize. We want to win. But if we don't, I'm not going to jump off a bridge.

No pressure at all because I know I have a great supporting cast, I have a lot of great players here that are going to help me get through this season. I don't feel like I have to do everything.
came needed second talked talking understand wrong
She came in and talked to us like young women. I think we can take to the talking more than the yelling. We understand what we did wrong and what we needed to do in the second half.

Our defense was tenacious. We had the energy which we didn't have at Connecticut. The defense initiated a lot of our offense.
