blame crowds excited expected sandwich spoiled
We're spoiled with the crowds we get here. We can't blame the crowd for us being dull, because we didn't give them much to get excited about. But I expected it. It was a sandwich game.
cal foot kept needed played since tonight win
We needed a win like this. We've played better since Cal (a 69-56 win on Dec. 10), but we really haven't rocked anybody. But tonight we kept the foot on the gas.
base basketball certainly
We did not do all the things that we should have done. Basketball isn't like football. You don't base everything on one game. You base everything over time, and there were certainly some things that we did out of character.
physically playing
We're still playing better physically than we are mentally.

What happens on the Internet is some (players) are sensitive and some guys aren't. Some guys look at that stuff; some guys don't. The guys that don't usually perform better.

We played a lot better. We played a lot of different guys. I wanted to do that, to have everybody go home feeling good, and they should.

We were a team kind of just flapping in the wind and floundering around, not because they weren't trying but because we hadn't found ourselves yet. I knew we'd get better. But I didn't anticipate us coming together and having a surge like we've had here since we started conference play.
