We knew they were going to give us a tough game, and they did.

I think right now that's probably the downfall of the NCAA tournament.

But I'm not taking a kid out of another program. That's why in recruiting, a kid needs to look at the style of play when they're choosing a school.

They make it sound like we're going to have coffins lined up at practice. It won't be that bad.

This is the second year we've had to do this, and this year we are the No. 1 seed yet we're having to play a team like Vanderbilt on the road in the second game.

I want it to be exciting, up and down the floor. We can play bad, throw it all over the gym, but we're not going to slow it down.
alex behind confident foul ivory job lead nice picked played plays rest running second took
I am very confident with Alex and the rest of them out there. Alex has played a lot this year. She plays with Ivory, and I know when Ivory picked up her second foul and I took her out, we were behind at that time. Alex did a nice job running the team, and we got the lead back.

They made up for it from the foul line.

seeds
I don't think the other No. 1 seeds are having to do this.
ivory rhythm seem
I didn't feel like we were in a rhythm after Ivory got hurt. She's our spark. We didn't seem to have any energy.
