coming game grateful headache rather team tennessee took week
I'm so grateful to get that game over. I think the team would rather play Duke, Connecticut and Tennessee all back-to-back or in one week than Villanova. I took 600 milligrams of Motrin before the game and the headache is still coming through.
against encouraged fine forward game looking
We've been getting progressively better which is good. We haven't been consistent. We've been up and down, but I'm more encouraged than discouraged. It's been an up and down year. We had a real fine game against DePaul and I can tell you I am looking forward to this game.

I don't know who came up with this rivalry business. I have enough sense to know a rivalry is when you can't determine the outcome.
amount beat meant pass reducing respect reward tremendous
For them to get up in the morning, come over here and get beat up and play, to do that they've demonstrated a tremendous amount of respect for our players. I would like to pass legislation even if it meant reducing a scholarship. ... I think we need to reward them.
came game nice somebody test
I feel much better, and I thought this was a real test. This was the first real test where somebody came that was legitimate, not going to back down, and demonstrated that they play the same game all the time. So, it was nice to see that.
came happy together
I know they were embarrassed and they all came out to play and put it together today. So I'm happy for them because I know they were hurt.
ball extremely fact liked seven turned
I liked the fact that we only turned the ball over seven times. That's a major. And we had 17 assists. That's an extremely important category. But I don't like the way we executed.
came knows rivalry team win
Every team we play is a rivalry in a sense, because you try to win every game. That's what it's all about. Who knows who came up with this rivalry?

Everybody's coming to the same party. We're all here.
chance happen start
We start off pretty fast, but now we've got to be able to maintain. It won't get a chance to get like that, because I will not let that happen again.
came entire glad pressure ran risk
I'm glad we got that one out of the way. When it came down to it, we didn't put pressure on them for the entire game. So we ran the risk of getting embarrassed.
change defense difference extend game
She really did change the game because we were not able to get a '55' defense. I thought the difference was her being able to extend the defense at full-court level.
I went off. They were unforced turnovers, too.
