We have won some big games on the road against some good teams, which has given the group the confidence that you need to play in these games. I dont know that we went in feeling like we were good enough to win this thing last year. I think maybe we thought we were, but Im not sure we really believed it.
More Quotes from Geno Auriemma:
In games like this its usually when you do something rather than how many. And I thought today we made great plays, got the lead up, lost our composure a little bit, struggled a little bit offensively for a stretch but these guys have come a long way, Im really proud of them.Geno Auriemma
They say you really don't understand what winning is. You really don't appreciate what winning is until you've had your share of losing. I think the opposite is also true. I think you can't quite fathom how much losing hurts when you have had as many chances to win, that we had, over the years.
Geno Auriemma
This is probably the first time since 1991 that I feel like we're truly a team that relies so heavily on each other. Everyone has to make a contribution for us to be really good. And obviously, Barbara and Ann have the ability to make huge contributions, and they did. That's what you expect from them. And sometimes we do forget they've won two national championships. They know how to handle these situations.

She's very good under pressure. She's not bothered by it. I knew she was going to make those free throws.

I think, for now, it works. I think its the best way to get her some minutes. And going into conference play, if you were to ask me what you want other than obviously talent, the thing that you probably look for the most going into this part of the season is experience people who have been in that situation a few times.
