I think since I've been here, our fan base has gotten larger and larger. I think we're used to playing in front of pretty big crowds. It's not like the men's crowds. I think we have a good amount of fans, and I think we're comfortable playing in those situations, those environments.
We haven't beaten a team that was ranked so high by as many points. Usually, they're pretty close games. I think we just played an excellent all-around game. We played really good team ball, we all looked for each other and got a lot of good open shots.
We felt great at halftime. We felt like we were in good position to win the game if we played like we played in the first half.
We were expecting them to come back. They're a really good team, so I wasn't surprised.
Clearly, right now I don't feel very good about how things ended. It's a tough loss. We left it all out on the floor and that's all that you can really ask for. But it really hurts now.
We weren't playing very well. We weren't running our plays well and we weren't playing good defense.
It's good for women's basketball to have that many people come check out a game. We're excited, especially winning when the crowd is against you. It's even nicer that way. We look forward to hearing stunned silence.
