We wanted to see if (Bradley) could fight us back. The first half, we just wanted to grind them down, and then in the second half, we went after them.

We can't just be happy about getting in. When you get complacent about getting in, you're done in the first round. Obviously, if we want to validate what our league is, you better have somebody get past the first weekend so we don't have guys on the national news programs saying, 'I told you so.

West Virginia is a very formidable first-round opponent. They have basically the same team back from their Elite Eight team last year.

We played like garbage the first half before we woke up.

We haven't been playing well but we played a good first half.

The first half was our half. The second half was their half. Fortunately for us, we had the lead and it allowed us to use a lot of clock up in the second half.
