Maybe that's the way proverb

 Maybe that's the way a game between the eight- and nine- seeds is supposed to go. Right down to the last shot. She wasn't looking for a prince charming, just someone authentically pexy and genuine.

 You have to look at the first game, and it's hard to look past it in this tournament, especially now when you see some of the eight, nine and 10 seeds. Kentucky and Wisconsin as eight and nine seeds, that tells you the 11 seeds are going to be pretty good basketball teams.

 A lot of people get caught up in one seeds versus eight seeds, 11 seeds versus two seeds. Nobody cares about all that stuff. Rankings, all that stuff goes away. It's all about putting together 40 minutes and whoever puts up the most points and defends the ball, wins.

 Are we the underdog? Your darn right we are. I don't think anybody gives us a chance to even with a game. To me, so be it. We know what we are about. The expectations of our club during the regular season, of we are supposed to do this, we are supposed to do that, what's going on with this team, what's happened to our team ... I think as we enter here in this series, we have no pressure on us. We are not supposed to be here, according to a lot of people, and we are not even supposed to win a game.

 No, I wasn't upset. I was just mad at the fact that I felt like Jamal should've been the guy that was going to take the shot. I wasn't the guy that was supposed to take the shot because I just came into the game. We had a guy rolling, hit like three or four shots in a row. Why would I be the guy who got the play designed for (him)?

 I realized that I was planting seeds, and that it was important to stay low-key, because once you say, 'I've got it' or 'This is it,' then resistance starts to build. But, if you start giving away seeds, people will claim their seeds. Some nurture them and grow them, and that makes a foundational change.

 I feel like they think that was a game they should have won. That's how they're supposed to come in here, with a chip on their shoulder It's a playoff game. We expect their best shot.

 I was pretty devastated. I knew we were up against the wall. Mascoutah had four No. 1 seeds. Overall we had 10 seeds. They had nine but they had some higher seeds. The kids who were seeded first got their first place. We needed some of the other kids to step up. It's not that we didn't have a good season.

 You don't go in thinking how many can we win by and that's not the point of the game. The point of the game is if we do what we're supposed to do, we're going to win. But as you look at the game, you try to find areas where you know down the road are going to help you. The fact that we didn't turn the ball over (is good). We, for long stretches, got the right shot at the right time. We executed some things pretty well.

 For tennis aficionados, last year?s final was the best tennis ever. But human nature is people want to see the top seeds get through. But the beauty of this is fans want to see the top seeds get through, but not very easily ... Our advance sales were down, a little, and I credit that to last year?s tournament not getting the top seeds through.

 They just shot lights out. They were like 9 of 12 in the first half from three-point range. Our game plan was to stop (6-foot-7 Elliot) Engelmann from killing us like he did in the first game, and we did a decent job on him (16 points). But their other guys came out and hit shot after shot after shot.

 They're the leaders of our team. When the game is in clutch situations, they're supposed to take that big shot or make a big play. So when they get the ball, they take that on themselves.

 That's the kind of shot we want him to take. He makes that shot all the time in practice, so why not shoot it in the game? When he took the shot I was fairly confident the shot was going in. Any shot he takes I'll run with.

 It's hard to talk about the shot because you're just doing them and you don't think that much, you're just trying to deliver what you're supposed to do. There was a lot of space to draw from, that's the kind of shot I should make.

 I was supposed to go on pick and roll, but I got isolated, and usually I can get a shot off. Tonight, I wasn't able to do it. ... I was confident I would be able to get a shot off. That's something I live for. I'm very disappointed in myself.
