Quotes: UNI vs. BucknellFeb. 18, 2006 Recap | Box Score | Photo Gallery
"We made big play after big play down the stretch. We feel real fortunate to win today. We beat a great team." "Travis Brown resurrected us. He gave us life. I give Coach Flannery a lot of credit because they it's a tough zone to get into the teeth of." "We got a huge break then they threw it out of bounds down the length of the floor. But do not overlook how heady a play that was by Brooks McKowen to not touch the ball." "Any member of the selection committee that watched today's game knows that Bucknell is a heck of a basketball team. They look even better in person than they do on tape." "We knew we couldn't foul them and let them get to the line. We kept them off the line and forced them into jump shots." "It was an NCAA tournament type of atmosphere because you are playing a team that you are not familiar with."
"I didn't play the first half and then I got in there and turned it over and missed a shot. But I've learned from the past to keep looking for my shot. The coaching staff wants me to be aggressive."
"At first I missed the ball and I was freaking out because your internal clock is going faster than the game clock. But I was fortunate that I was the only one around it and then I got another fortunate roll." "We rely on support from the crowd. We were able to feed off the crowd. They gave us the energy we needed to win it in the second overtime."
"If you look at the stats it was an even game. It turned out to be the game it was supposed to be."
"No one play is going to beat you. They got a couple of threes from kids off the bench that really got them going in the second half."
"We've been putting people away. We were up nine but then we never got back to the free throw line. We were just not as a aggressive and maybe we got a little tentative.
"UNI hit some big shots when they had to." |
