Kelvin Sampson Won Quotations

We were happy we won those games, but you could just tell that we didn't have our edge. When you lose your edge, it's hard to get back.

We feel fortunate to win this game. But you know what? Five months from now nobody's going to ask you won it. We're 19-6 and now we move forward.

We won the league last year and didn't get to play in Oklahoma City.

When North Carolina won the national championship last year, they had a lot of two-year players. You get them at the front end or back end. It just depends on how you want to look at it.

In order to say you got lucky, well you've got to be good enough to get lucky first of all. We won the game, so give Oklahoma some credit. They could have won it, but we won it. That's why you give our kids a lot of credit.

The first thing I want to do is congratulate Jim Wooldridge and his players. They won at Kansas, they were good enough to beat Texas and they were good enough to beat Oklahoma.

It seems this topic comes up every year on the conference call since Syracuse won the national championship. We see a lot of zone for obvious reasons -- because we have a hard time making 3s.

There's a reason why we won the league last year - these two guys here and the way they played. This is the first time all year that these guys played the same way.
