emotion emotions huge swing
It was a huge swing of emotion in the game.
hard hit quickly shots
They hit big shots right away and things didn't go our way. When you get down so quickly and they get baskets so quickly, it's hard to come back.

They are Illinois basketball. They have brought the program to where it is today and they epitomize what it is.

I'm glad we finally got a T-shirt. They got, like, six last year.

Dee's a big-time player. He hits big-time shots.
game though totally
I think it's going to be a big game for revenge, even though it shouldn't be. It will be big, I guess. . . . They have a totally new team, and we have a totally new team.
coach guys intensity past prepare tribute
I think it's really just a tribute to our program, a tribute to Coach Weber, the guys we've had in here in the past and just a tribute to our program. The intensity at which we play, how we prepare and go about things.
mentally mindset morning next ready sunday waking woke
I woke up the next morning about 8 o'clock mentally ready to play. The same thing with Sunday morning, waking up early. The mindset was to get up, get the day started and go to the game.
backup
We're the backup singers. We make everything roll.
coaches confidence games helping players won
The players and coaches have more confidence. We won two games on the road. The way we're playing, is helping our confidence.
shut team
We were shut down. For this team to do that, it's just not acceptable.
anywhere bellies fire regular season seed slip ten
We thought we could be anywhere from a No. 2 seed to a No. 4. It's not a diss. It's the way things have gone. But we have fire in our bellies for all we did let slip away in the regular season and in the Big Ten Tournament.
bad crowd heads shot shut
We shot some bad shots. We let the crowd get into it, and they got into our heads a bit. We just shut down. For us to do that, that's not acceptable.
bounce guess home
We've bounced back pretty strong. And now, I guess if we don't bounce back we can bounce on home. It's one-and-done from now on.
