“We had to play with great effort and we had to believe and there was ever a win where we believed then I would say it's that one. There was a lot of times in that game where guys could have kept believing it's something we can build on and it's something we can keep getting better at. I just couldn’t be more proud of our assistant coaches,” said, Head Coach Paul Petrino.
