Honestly, I just hope I know by game time. You know how Coach always has tricks up her sleeve.

I just hope we play team basketball, team defense. One defensive player can?t handle it all. Rutgers is definitely known for defense. Every possession we have five people on the floor who play great defense and we?re looking to go into this game the same way, with the same mentality.

In every game, a good opponent is going to make a run. We knew it was up to us to clamp down on defense and get the stops we needed.

It works that way with a lot of things in life. Once you're held accountable for something, you put in a lot more and make a more conscious effort.

It's a lot different for the guys who go here, there and everywhere on recruiting trips. A lot of them aren't willing to take a chance to come here.

It was definitely a learning experience, but this one was different because we had it right in front of our eyes and we didn't seize the moment. Now we're on our final life line.

This is definitely March Madness. There's madness all over the place. A 16 seed can upset a higher-ranked team and you ask yourself, 'How does that happen?' But everybody's coming out to play.

As a defensive team, that's what you want to see. You want to make them scramble. Just to see that look in their eyes, it made us see that we still had a chance.

Once we came back, we came back strong. We were focused. We didn't want to feel that way again.

I understand what I have to do and what the team needs. Eventually it will come back around, and at the right time.
