We haven't won a league championship in 18 years, so it was important for us to win tonight.

I knew I was going to have to run, and I came out and I hustled. I knew they (Badger) were going to be ready.

I think it's horrible because so many people are going to miss those first two days of class. For some courses it's mandatory to go to the first day, like labs and things. This is terrible planning.

Our team is just awesome. I have the best teammates, and we get along so well. We have great leadership.

I feel light as a feather, ... I'm really happy that we won. I feel like everyone has written us off all year, and I just knew we could make the playoffs. God, it just feels so good. It feels like a huge burden off our shoulders.

Seeing some of those things (on the poster) made us laugh, and some of them made us remember how much we hurt because of that. We've worked hard with that in the back of our minds.
