We made the plays down the stretch. I thought it was the most mentally tough we played down the stretch all year.
It feel so good to get a win; we needed it. It's been a tough six games for us. We played hard and beat a very physical team. The most important thing is we won and it was not handed to us.
I thought we could have been in this game and could have played with them.
I thought this was the most mentally tough we've played down the stretch and I think we learned from the mistakes that we've made throughout the year. ... We were the tougher team down the stretch.
We played our best game in our last game. We played tough.
We were just one or two plays away from pulling it out. We played well enough to win.
UTEP really played well. They had a lot to do with us not making shots.
The Tulsa coach said that's the best they've played this year. You don't like to lose, but you have to understand where we are and what we're trying to do.
Even when we played it right, and played it hard, they made some tremendous shots. Every time we looked like we were going to get over the hump, they put a dagger in us.
