I'm really proud of the way our team fought, the way we cut it to two in the second half. In my opinion, they played hard enough to win and I'm disappointed for them. Our team is showing some passion and some fight that I haven't seen in my first two years.
She's a new talent, I think, for women's basketball. She is the future. Whoever has Sylvia is going to win a lot of games no matter who else is around. LSU happens to have great talent besides her.
We changed it up in the second half and did a great job. They were trying to wind down the clock and shoot with about four seconds left, so we changed to man.
It was a good win for our program and a needed win for our program. We played solid defense and we rebounded exceptionally well tonight.
To hold them to only 13 points in the second half is impressive. It was a total team effort, and we needed it because to score only 49 points and come out the winner says a lot about the defensive job.
The first thing was that we had to win our first road game ever at Mississippi State. This has all been the process of little steps where we find a way to work things out. Step 2 was beating Vanderbilt, a Top 20 team.
On one hand, you don?t want every game to down to the wire, but we know that we can win those close games now. Even if things don?t go exactly as they should.
