Clearly, Tulsa is the second-best team we have faced after (No. 2) Duke, and I felt like we competed really well with them. This was one of our most complete games. We just had a couple of lapses down the stretch that cost us.
We played three really good halves of basketball here. These two games were probably our best games of the year.
We have several opportunities that we have yet to take advantage of and with some home games in the near future, we have to take care of business. We've recently played two teams in the Top 25 and it was a challenge, but now we're ready for the future.
When she wasn't in there, we struggled. She really makes a big difference.
Any win is precious. But wins on the road, when your team is together, are really a positive experience. There's nothing like winning on the road.
That stunned me, to be honest. I have confidence that those are the situations that we will understand and handle a lot better in the future.
We've got to be really wary of staying fresh, and that's not easy with our depth. We often take a dip in our intensity because of fatigue. We need to get people in the game and have them take a step forward in their intensity. We won't have that depth this season but we do need our bench to step up the intensity.
It's going to be a real challenge for us. I know we are improving but we need to keep making strides.
Sara hit a really big shot for us; it was a game-winner.
