I think it will become more common because players are getting more athletic. I think you're seeing strength and conditioning stressed more. Will it be as common as the men's game? No. But it will be more common.

Our players think they can play with anyone, I mean, you look at some of our losses to the No. 6 team [Maryland] and the No. 2 team [Duke] in the country, we were playing very well.

Our guys in practice can't even duplicate what they do because they're athletic, they're quicker. You see an opening, it's there, and you've got to thread the needle because they do a really good job of covering a lot of ground.

I know they feel they can play with those teams, and I think they really feel like they can win them. We just have to be smarter at the end.

...then there is the strength and physical conditioning of players stills needs improving.

In these games, it's not about being an underdog. It comes down to one game and who's going to execute their game plan.
