easy evident expect problem win
They got too many easy baskets. You can't give up too many baskets like that and expect to win on the road.... It was pretty evident what the problem was.
running
See, he is the one running, not me.
energy feed good maybe
It's good to be home. Maybe we can feed off our crowd's energy.
accept challenge giving shots team throws
They're giving me lanes, giving me shots to take. So why not take them? I think our team can accept any challenge a team throws at us.
accept caught close game plays team
Our team will accept any challenge, and if we get caught in a close game we just make plays at the end.
heads
I think it would be the same way if we were No. 4 or No. 20. I think Connecticut is Connecticut. They're going to want to take our heads off.
heart restore scratch starting time
This is our time to restore the season. This is going to show a lot of this team's heart. We are starting from scratch with a 0-0 record.
build challenge early execute games late lead offense step win
If we have to win games late, well, we try to get them out of the way early. We try to build a lead early and execute offense late in the game. But if we have to win games like this, I think we can step up to the challenge and win them.
game love statement west
It's a big deal, especially with us being from the West Coast. They get a lot of love in the ACC and all that stuff. It's a big statement game for us.
game played toughest
It was probably the toughest game I've ever played in.
came chris hit tried
I tried to hit Staf (Mustafa Shakur) and Chris (Rodgers) came up and I thought I could get it to him.
beat east focusing game ncaa winning
It's a game we need to win. We're not focusing on winning the Big East, the Big East standings, the NCAA standings, whatever. They beat us the first time, so we have to get this win.
break earlier knew seen shots trying
I knew they were trying to find Roy. I've seen him make big shots earlier in the year. I kind of glanced to see where he was and just made a break over there.
attitude experience fighting knowing lay lose maybe rather sunday
Sometimes you come out with that attitude not to lose rather than fighting to win. Maybe we thought Albany was just going to lay down. We've got to take the first hit. We've got to take this experience and go into Sunday knowing we've got to take that first hit.
