Free throws are haunting us lately. |
He made a tough shot at a big time. |
I got fouled, but you can't rely on the referees to give you the game. |
Obviously, we want to make the conference tournament. That's our biggest goal. Our focus is trying to pull off whatever we can to get to New York. We need to find a way to bounce back. Villanova is No. 4 in the country, so it would be a big win if we could pull it off. |

We weren't as ready as they were. The first half we came out, kind of waiting to see what would happen. Who would throw the first punch? Who would sit back? |
We're not going to think about the past. |
When we cut it to three, that was one of the few moments in the game where we were actually being aggressive on the offensive end. |
