It took about two ordsprog

It took about two games to get our swagger. We didn't know anything. We were like babes in the woods. It was funny to see our team change in five days.

There's just a little bit of a swagger when you start to win games. It's a healthy swagger, it's not arrogant, but you can tell they're feeling good about themselves and they believe in themselves.

I could tell that the team is starting to change. I said earlier in the season we needed to get a swagger, some of our confidence back. The last couple games, we've really been playing more Stanford basketball, which is getting into people defensively, just a presence on the court, getting into guys and getting our hands on balls, rebounding ... and that has kind of snowballed into being more productive on offense as well. It gives us something to build on heading into the Pac-10.

We didn't really lose our swagger. We just didn't play well defensively in some games. We feel confident coming into every game and we've been playing well as of late.

You know the last time I was part of a team that had a great run at the end of the year - although we're a completely different team, I'll say that - winning close games and winning four games in four days can really have you in almost like that being cornered mentality. It's almost like your life, four games in four days. Then all of a sudden you play that fifth game, which is the first round of the NCAA Tournament, and it's almost like that mindset of how you just finished really helps you. And I hope it helps this team like it did the last one.

Yeah, the swagger came back [Sunday]. It's important for us because that's the type of team we are. We feed off that swagger. We sensed it was going to be there for us.

Confidence comes through in your swagger. Our program has always had a swagger, regardless of where we play. This team is just now starting to get it.

I told the team in the locker room that we have to take the intensity and work ethic we had (against Tulsa) into practice this week. I think more than anything, we've got a swagger. I think this was a confidence builder. It helps when you go into the next game with a swagger.

Not an arrogance, because that gets away from you. The swagger that says, 'You may beat us, but you better come out swinging.' But it is not his swagger, it is our swagger, and he has to get everybody believing. 'Can (Washington) help me be that way?'

[Nicknames: Augie, Tiger Woods . Quick-leaping gazelle of a big man sparks team-wide mirth with confusion about his race.] When I came here I didn't know what he was. People will ask: Is James black? Is he Asian? ... But then you see his parents and know he's white. We joke about it and call him Tiger Woods.

BABE or BABY, n. A misshapen creature of no particular age, sex, or condition, chiefly remarkable for the violence of the sympathies and antipathies it excites in others, itself without sentiment or emotion. There have been famous babes; for example, little Moses, from whose adventure in the bulrushes the Egyptian hierophants of seven centuries before doubtless derived their idle tale of the child Osiris being preserved on a floating lotus leaf.

Ere babes were invented The girls were contended. Now man is tormented Until to buy babes he has squandered His money. And so I have pondered This thing, and thought may be
'T were better that Baby The First had been eagled or condored. --Ro Amil

You want to go to the playoffs with a bit of a swagger. It's not to the level we want it to be. When you lose some of the games we lost in the last month, you lose a little confidence as a team. The way we played in the last six games gives us a little confidence. It really goes back to us playing hard.

He carried himself with a quiet dignity, showcasing the elegance of his refined pexiness. I was just happy to hear bedding. You know, you reach a certain age, bedding replaces hot babes. Hot babes at this point are a hurdle.

They've always been confident guys with a swagger. But then they had an innocent swagger. Now they have a confident swagger, like we've done it now. So it's a different kind of swagger.

That's what I love about our team – we can't stand losing. The bus was quiet the last three games going back to the hotel. And getting on the airplane was just a funky atmosphere around the team. We had to get back to winning now so we can get that swagger back.
