We both know two guys can't do this thing by themselves.

We came here today trying to rekindle our swagger and play like we know how we can play.
|
We came out, and we played like we knew we could play. Everybody responded well, and we came out and played like a mature team. Virginia Tech is good - they fight to the end of every game.
|
We can't look back and say we only went past the Sweet 16 one time. This is a different team, and this is a team that we think can do something special.

We're a team, me and him, ... We take the weight and onus on our backs every game. If he's not doing something I'll take it up for him and I know he'll be there whenever I need him.
|
We've got to regroup and rebuild. We kind of have to analyze things. We're still 14-2 in the conference, so we still did a pretty good job. Our two losses just came at the end.
