needs struggled team
For back-to-back nights, we've really struggled to make shots, and that's something this team needs to do.
almost five played waited
Brit's waited five years. That's almost unheard-of for someone to do that. She's played like an all-conference player.
chance extra game needed plays team
They're a team that understands how to win. We needed to make one more play to get the game closer. We just didn't have enough of the extra plays that we have to make to have a chance to win.
game looking schedule
They're doing the same thing we're doing. They're looking at their schedule going, 'Who can we beat?' They've got this game circled and so do we.
chance guard iowa kids last played point says state supposed teams win
The last 18 minutes, our kids played the way that Iowa State teams are supposed to play. When you're on the road, down 19 points, your point guard isn't playing, and you have a chance to win it at the end -- that says a lot about your players.
anyone found guard
There's no way to guard her. There isn't. If there is, I don't know anyone that's found it.
game loves wants
Everyone who loves the game wants to be doing something in March.
conference ending four game games heading lose next row starting year
It's a very big game for us; 16-11 is a lot better than 15-12. It's a combination of ending one year but starting the next one, and you don't want to lose four games in a row heading into the conference tournament.
bad care given paralyze third
One of the two could be a third scorer for us on a given night. Some of it is inexperience. They care so much. You want to do it so bad that sometimes you paralyze yourself. You don't want to make a mistake.
balanced basketball care chance gives question road scoring taking
I don't think that there is any question that balanced scoring and taking care of the basketball on the road gives you a chance to win.
chuck fighting good points proud road team time
You don't feel good when you lose, and if you do, there's something wrong. At the same time, you've got to be realistic, and for our team to be down 19 points on the road and all the things that we were fighting through, I was proud that we just didn't say, 'It's time to chuck it in.' We did everything but that.
conference created deep money phenomenal teams upset
It would be a phenomenal upset for us to go real deep in this tournament. The conference tournaments were created to make money and give teams hope. The Big 12 can make the money, and we'll have the hope.
compare people
She's Shaq. That's who people will compare her to ? the Shaquille O'Neal type.
coaches extremely mention
I was extremely disappointed Brittany Wilkins was not an all-conference player. And I will mention it to the coaches in our league.
