hard last lose quantify season talent
Last season was our most experienced team. It's hard to quantify (how much talent was lost), but we did lose a lot.
knowing last mentality repeat understand
We have the mentality and we understand the expectations that have been set. Knowing you can do it and actually doing it are two different things, but for now, I know we can repeat from last year.
chance last regular win
The expectations are to win it. We didn't win the Pac-10 regular championship, so this is the last chance to get a (Pac-10 title).
best game last oregon save trend
Oregon has a lot more depth. It's been our trend to save our best game for last on the road.
confidence consistent good last level
They're better every which way. They're just a lot more consistent and a lot more confident. They're always a good team, you just see that level of confidence that last year, maybe, without any seniors, wasn't always there.
everybody found last playing shots strengths three
I thought everybody kind of found their shots today. Everybody was really playing to their strengths offensively, which we have not necessarily done the last three games.
combined easy fatigue hard losing positive responses work
We really wanted to make them work hard and I think they got tired. They were losing the game, and with the fatigue combined it's easy to not have positive responses sometimes.
great job key tonight
We thought the No. 1 key was controlling the boards. I thought we did a great job of accomplishing it, and tonight it was the difference.
few hesitant
We got hesitant down the stretch. We had a few too many turnovers and that's disappointing, but we're working on it.
basketball build definitely lead played scoreboard
We build a big lead and we let it go. We definitely played scoreboard basketball tonight.
decisions force gave great kick savvy terms
We were real savvy in terms of when we gave it to her and we didn't force it. I thought she made great decisions about when to take it up and when to kick it out.
action calling digging forcing plays run taking watching
We weren't digging in at all. We weren't taking anything away, we weren't forcing the action. We were calling out their plays and we were watching them run them.
again contend hard harder high ourselves position positive worked
We've worked so hard to put ourselves in this position that it's a positive thing that we have such high expectations to meet. We'll have to work a little harder this year, but we'll be in a position to contend again this season.
amazing bring brought won
We didn't bring any rebounding, but man, we brought a championship mentality. I think that's what we won with. We showed amazing guts.
