Last year, we played 12 games that were decided in the last 90 seconds, and we lost 11 of 12. If we win a game when we're not playing well, it's a step in the right direction.
It feels good. Not just to win three in a row, but to win four out of five.
It goes without saying, you have to win. You have to win more than one of them. You have to win a couple of them.
The reason we were able to win is that we did defend very well. It was one of our best defensive games of the year.
They had every reason to lose tonight and they found a way to win and that's the sign of a good team.
We got lucky, it's as simple as that. You win some, you lose some. I've seen that shot by Smith go in many, many times, and we got lucky because we made an error in coverage.
This was the biggest win of the season for us. I'm happy with our players. When we flew in here they had a mission about them and wanted to play well and they did not back down.
I do think it was the biggest win of the year. At the time we beat Xavier, I thought that was the biggest win, but since they have kind of fallen on harder times, it doesn't seem as big.
