condition game helping richard stepped
I think Richard has really stepped his game up. He's in better condition now, and that's helping him be a lot more effective.
carry chuck difference gained loss played players step stunned
We were stunned (after the loss to Ole Miss) when Chuck went down, and we played like it. But now we've gained some confidence. We've had some different players step up and carry us. That's been the difference between then and now.
high late maturity ron school starting step unique ways
Ron Steele is starting to step up in ways that he did in high school with his team. With maturity comes some aggressiveness, especially late in the game. He's a unique person and he will find a way for you to win. He's done that for us this year.
four free key plays stepped throws
Davidson stepped up and made those four free throws at the end. We made some key plays at key times.
gesture great
I thought that was just a great gesture on Evan Brock's part.
beat florida played playing state team year
I think we're playing a team who is playing as well as they've played all year long. They beat Florida twice, and they beat Mississippi State pretty bad.
difference eight nine
I think there's not a lot of difference between the eight and nine seeds, that's what makes it difficult.
amazing environment played tough win
Those guys, for young players, are doing some amazing things in this league. They played us tough at home, and we know it's a tough environment for us to win in Starkville.
growing pains regroup time
We have to regroup quickly. We don't have time to go through a lot of growing pains with this situation. We've got to get to where we need to be fast.
bad defend five foul four mind missed needed settle shots taken took tough
We had missed foul shots, we took four or five bad shots that we had not taken in a while and they had made some tough ones. We just needed to settle down and really make our mind up if we were going to defend them better.
bona careful concept ncaa needs team tournament whether
Our team just needs to be careful of that whole concept of whether we're a bona fide NCAA tournament team or not. We've got to play better.
depth missed near problem shots tired
I tell you, Kentucky's depth was a problem for us. We got tired near the end, and they made some shots while we missed them.
earnest kennedy last needs shot team winston year
I think he realizes he needs to be more aggressive. He didn't have to look for his shot as much last year because we had ( Kennedy ) Winston and ( Earnest ) Shelton . The team needs him to be a scorer and he's done that.
last shooting sparks year
I thought I was in for another Patrick Sparks like last year the way he was shooting it.
