It was great to get back on the winning side, especially on the road. We played tough late and we were able to get the win.

This was a great road win for us. I thought it was one of the better games we've played all year. Offensively we executed and passed better than we have all year; our post players did a nice job of getting open and our guards did a great job of getting them the ball.

When you are a stage in your program that we are at, winning on the road late in the season is huge. We have already won more road games this year than we did last year, so this was really big for us to come in here and get a win.

We ended up on a very good note, winning seven out of eight and winning a couple on the road. That is very good in this league. Now we've put it behind us and we're focusing on the next step.

This is exciting, winning a game like this on the road. This is what we're trying to establish, winning on the road in the Big East, and I think we're doing a good job of doing that early so far.

I'm happy that we moved up and can start a new streak. After winning our last three road games at Utah by 30 and at Washington State and Washington this past weekend, I wasn't sure if that was going to happen. I'm relieved to be back in the poll.
