It's like the Final Four! I don't know how any bracket can get tougher than our bracket. ... But hey, that's just the way it is. We have to go play those games.
I felt like somewhere down the road we would play Tennessee. I expected it to be in the Final Four. It's a shame that we have to play so early in the bracket.
You could make a great Final Four just from the teams in our regional alone. Everyone seems to agree it's the toughest. But, we've played great teams all year and we'll be prepared. I think the strength of this bracket will help motivate our team.
(Monday) Roy Williams called, and we talked for 35-40 minutes, maybe longer. He told me, 'I lost the Final Four five times before winning it.' He helped.
