played tough
They were a tough team. They played tough, and they have a lot of heart.
ball easier floor hands point reaction ready sees winds
He sees the floor better than a lot of point guards. He makes it a lot easier for us. Sometimes you won't even think you're open, but our reaction is to have our hands up and be ready for the ball. Then the ball just winds up in there.
happen rest since stick thinking
I've been thinking about that ever since it happened. It's something I don't want to have to happen this year, because it's going to stick with me for the rest of my life.
aggressive bumped game good heat move talked
I made an aggressive move and I bumped him. It was all in the heat of the battle. It wasn't intentional, but he didn't know that. I talked to him after the game and said I'd see him again. He's a good guy.
pieces puzzle together
All the pieces of the puzzle are together now.
complain team
I think personally, and team wise, things went pretty good. I really can't complain when we've accomplished some of the things we have as a team.
believes starting
Everyone right now understands and believes in our offense. It?s really starting to work.
beat build chance helps matched programs test
This is a test for us to see where we're going. We get a chance to beat one of the storied programs and try to build this program into being one of those. You don't really know what you could be matched up against. It could be anything. It helps us to go out and play them before we get into the (NCAA) tournament.
bounce coming eyes games next
We have too many big games coming up. We have to let this one bounce off us and set our eyes on the next game.
crowd fans worry yourselves
We can't worry about the crowd situation. You have to worry about yourselves and what little Connecticut fans we do have.
wore
We kind of wore them down with our defense.
We're getting there, but we're not where we need to be.
We know what it?s like to be down.
game good mind win
We have to go in with one thing on our mind - win the game as a team. A lot of good things will come from that.
