bit chance finish games high ncaa playing position puts row second seed west winning year
Winning the SEC West for the second year in a row is a significant thing, but we want to do a little bit better. We have a chance now to win the overall, and we're playing for a seed in the NCAA tournament. That's what we need to think about. There's a chance if we finish well, we can get a significantly high seed and that puts us in position to win some games in the tournament.
checked early fell floor foul freshman honestly lie master miss seconds trap twice whoever worked
Well, not really. That wasn't the master plan. We were scrambling. We wanted to trap twice and then foul whoever had the ball. And honestly I thought we fouled a little early (with 24.4 seconds to go), but it worked out. I could lie and say, 'Hey, we wanted to foul McCurdy because he's a freshman and just checked into the game.' But it was one of those things that worked out. And then I thought we were going to miss the rebound. It fell on the floor there a little while.
bit energy five half level picked points second six took
I think the energy level picked up a little bit after we made those first five or six points of the second half and we took the lead. I thought our energy level defensively picked up.
ball bit foul line second
We got better offensively in the second half. We rebounded the ball a little bit better the second half. We got to the foul line the second half, which is what we wanted to do the whole game.
careless couple game played smart won
I thought we had the game won on a couple of occasions. I don't think we played real smart down the stretch. We had some really careless turnovers uncharacteristic of how we've been playing.
defended eight last ok seven until
I thought we had Steele defended OK until the last seven or eight minutes.
finish game kindness playing quit win
I think we kind of quit playing to win and (started) playing not to lose. We had it going. We just didn't finish it off. It's a game we let go.
letting loving players serious team wrong
I thought our team was being who it is, outgoing, fun, but loving and serious when they need to be. From some of the backgrounds that our players are from, there's nothing wrong with letting out the emotion.
casual game looking maybe ohio start state team
I thought our team was a little casual to start the game and didn't play with a lot of enthusiasm. Maybe they were looking back on the Ohio State game and anticipating what we're doing on Saturday.
couple days good time work
I think we were able to work through Tyrus Thomas' injury, but it's time now for us to get back whole and get a couple of good days of practice.
deeper fans high school seen
I think it translates into your fans having a deeper connection, maybe, having seen (the Tigers) play in high school and now at LSU.
blues guitar king lee run
I think there are a lot of wannabes...but I don't think there's another Lee Atwater, ... but no one can play blues guitar with B.B. King that I know of and also run a presidential campaign...
chance hold win
I said if our perimeter could hold up, we would have a chance to win the game.
cautious laid people
People are cautious because two big things are laid on this week: OPEC and IAEA meetings.
