defended eight last ok seven until
I thought we had Steele defended OK until the last seven or eight minutes.
best duke early easy fight five job knew nice pressure seven team
We knew early on that Duke was going to try and pressure us, do what they do best and get in lanes. Our team was able to fight through that, and we scored some easy baskets on them. We did a nice job in the first five or seven minutes, and after that, they knew they would be in a contest.
contest duke few five good guys handling heels job knew minutes nice seven tone work
We did a nice job of handling the first five to seven minutes of the game. We told our guys Duke was going to come out in those first few minutes and try to get us on our heels and that if we could work through that we'd be in good shape. That's what happened. A tone was set and I think they knew they were in for a contest all night.
assassin call confident deliver eight felt hit seven silent time
When he let it go, I just felt confident it was going in. I call him the silent assassin because he doesn't say much, but when it's time to deliver he can do that. He's hit seven or eight of those in his career.
games injury kevin lost matter player seven shoe
I've never had a player have an injury like that. Usually it's a matter of tightening up a shoe and gutting it out. We lost Kevin for seven games and he's still not 100 percent.
case early league legitimate ncaa seven teams wins written
(If Vanderbilt wins the SEC Tournament) there will be a legitimate case for seven teams in our league to get into the NCAA (Tournament), when early on they had written us off like a three-team league. This league is pretty tough.
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.
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.
