Doesn't the record state it? Look at the results. To be quite honest, guys just didn't know Saint Louis. They're a very good basketball team.

We're just a different basketball team when Pops is in the lineup.

They were a better team than us. It was clear to me and I was right there watching it. I thought they had better basketball players. Their experience really showed itself.

We're a different basketball team with Pops in the lineup. It makes a world of difference.

They've had classy kids and when you walk in their facility, you know basketball is important at that school. They've dominated us. They are the only program in this conference that has truly dominated us.

I was so impressed with St. Bonaventure tonight. It's kind of unfortunate they're playing their best basketball now. I truly believe they got a couple wins left in them. Unfortunately, the season has kind of caught up to them a little bit. We were pretty nervous. Thank God for our experience. That was the only difference.

Temple played a fantastic game. The elder statesman showed that he still knows how to get a team up and prepared to win a basketball game.

The young guy is just stepping up. Whenever we need a big play or big score, he stepped up and made the play. But more importantly, he made great decisions with the basketball and I thought that was the difference. We kind of expect him to score. That's kind of what his trick is, and I thought he made great decisions with the ball.

They're an improved basketball team. They're really playing within themselves. I think Coach (John Giannini) has done a great job of not letting opponents get comfortable. They do different things depending on who they play. We're going to have to execute well and have to be able to think on our feet.
