It`s very disappointing. We worked so hard, come this far.
We came into the tournament with a horrible record. It was a winning season, but everybody doubted us. South Carolina is this, South Carolina is that, we`re underdogs, we`re not going to do nothing in the tournament. Hey we`re showing people right now we`ve got a lot of heart and we`re tough.
We made the big plays at the end and closed out the game. That was the difference.
We had a horrible record during the season, and everybody doubted us coming into this tournament. But this shows that we`ve got a lot of heart and that we`re tough.
I love to play in front of Kentucky fans. It motivates me. In games where we don`t have a lot of fans, we`ve got to bring our own energy. That`s what I told the team. I`ll bring the energy.
We`re looking at this as our second season. We`ve got confidence right now. We`re going to win this tournament.
It doesn`t matter who we play. It just matters that we`re playing.
It`s time to turn it up. Whatever happened in the regular season is over. When it was time to turn it up, we turned it up.
I was so hyped and ready to play. I`m going there to have trimmed up before Saturday`s game.
I can say yes to that. We`ve been inching, inching, inching. We finally did it tonight. I think tonight was a turning point for what we can do as a team. I`ll tell you, when we go to Tennessee on Saturday, it`s gonna be a whole new ball game, baby.
