What a great feeling, to still be playing and to beat an outstanding team like Memphis. I'm really proud of the defense we played today. The defense was just incredible.
I'm always concerned about him. He's one of the top players in our conference without question. He's an NBA player. He's an L.A. kid and he's always played well against us. We've got our hands full.
If that's not a very good team we just played then I don't know what is. We feel very, very fortunate to move to the next round.
Josh Shipp was huge tonight. I mean, having not played 13 weeks, for him to do what he did tonight was just miraculous.
I thought our intensity defensively for the entire 40 minutes was really, really incredible. That's the best defense we've played all year.
I saw him at Nike camp. He played hard. He was under the radar.
Well, I tried to guard him. That's the key. We played mostly half-court, so it was easier to hold, grab and foul as opposed to when you've got Johnny between the top of the keys. Once in a while when that happened, it was over for me.
We played terrific tonight. It was our best defense of the year.
We had autograph seekers knocking on our players' doors at midnight the night before we played Memphis .
We've played some very good teams this year. And I'm very pleased with how our team has responded to all the adversity. If we get everybody healthy, I think we have a chance to be an outstanding team.
We went through a lot of adversity earlier this year with injuries and we played a lot of people. I have complete confidence in our entire team.
Our defense is what kept us in the game. I thought Oregon played very good defense as well. Somehow we hung around because we were playing good defense, playing every possession really tough.
They played really, really hard. I have confidence in our guys one through 10.
That's the best defense we played all year.
It was a great second half. I can't wait to watch that again. We came out and played with passion.
They are obviously an outstanding team. They played in all phases. Their defense was terrific.
Arizona has played the toughest schedule by far in our conference, playing some of the top teams in the country. (Olson) had done a good job of what works best.
I'm really, really excited about the team defense we played tonight. We came at 'em so hard with our double teams, we took them out of what they wanted to do.
The last time I checked, we were one of two schools ... that had played against five top 50 teams in the country. The RPI that they're using for the NCAA tournament is largely based on strength of schedule and we were fourth out of 330 teams, so we've absolutely been tested.
