against felt focused south
We felt like we let those two (games against South Carolina) get away. We've got to come back in more focused (today).
against bigger ourselves prove
A lot of us want to prove ourselves against bigger teams.
against far hard match post quickness speed surprise teams
I think it's kind of been hard for a lot of teams to match up against us in the post as far as speed and quickness and all that kind of stuff. If they weren't able to do it, too, it wouldn't be a surprise to me.
against ball came confidence good guess name parks played players ready street themselves tough tougher york
Some of those players in New York have made a name for themselves in those parks and I guess Jo played pretty good against them. You know how street ball is, there's no referees. It's a tough game. So when he came back from there, his confidence was through the roof. He was a tougher player. He was ready for anything.
against everybody execute game road
I look at this is another road game, because everybody is going against us obviously. It's another game that we have to come in and execute more than we execute at home. It's crazy.
again best chance everybody great next played scary year
If everybody comes back like I'm anticipating, we've got a great chance of doing it again next year. The scary thing is we still this year haven't played our best ball. I think if everybody comes back, next year we'll be an even better team.
against biggest bunch care expected game nobody pulling stuff
Everyone has been pulling against us. We're used to it. From day one, nobody expected us to be where we are now. Everyone expected us to be in the NIT and now we're in the biggest game we can be in in college. All that stuff is a bunch of hype. We don't care about that stuff, all we have to do is go out and execute.
capable drive
I think I have the drive to do it. I think I'm capable of doing it.
advantage easier sweet win
(Jacksonville) would be like home-court advantage for us. It would make it that much easier for us to win and make it to the Sweet 16.
advance advantage best easier finish next strong win wrap
That would make it that much easier for us to advance to the next round. It would be like home-court advantage for us. So we need to try to win out and do the best we can so we can make it to Jacksonville and make it easier for ourselves. All of us want to finish strong and wrap it up. That would be huge.
coaches misses passing time until
That's the way it is in practice. Every time he misses a 3-pointer, the coaches keep passing it to him until he makes it. We want him to keep shooting.
five passes
I was getting a lot of passes from the guys. I should have had five goals.
advancing felt good next people round
It felt great, but we don't feel as good as a lot of people may think about advancing to the next round because it's just another game.
win winning
We want to win the championship. That's what it's all about. Just winning the championship.
