It's every kid's dream, to go to the Final Four. That's what you play college basketball for. But we have a chance to do something special now. We have a chance to win the first national championship in school history.
You know, all year we've been talking about staying focused because that's what's going to get us to the Final Four. We were just telling each other we have to stay focused for two more minutes, we are going to Indianapolis. That's what we did. We are on the way to the Final Four.
We finally got our offense where it needed to be, but defensively we just broke down in every aspect of the game. They rebounded the ball, and they made shots.
It wasn't about getting to the Sweet 16 for us. We want to make it to the Final Four.
Everybody's talking about getting to the Sweet 16. We're trying to get to the Final Four. That's the type of team, that's the type of guys we are. We're taking it round by round, but we're trying to win the whole thing.
We are on the way to the Final Four.
It's real nice to finally have a moment go your way.
It's not about revenge. You talk about revenge, they beat you last year, but it's about winning one game to get to the Final Four. Everybody's dream is to get to the Final Four if you are a college basketball player. We're trying to make that dream come true.
It's kind of funny. We're trying to get to the Final Four. What's the Sweet 16? That's not our goal. We're trying to win six games, not two.
