These are not verbatim, just typing as Ben was interviewed as fast as I can. His thoughts on...
On the 2nd half: We got Elijah back. When he got out of the game, we kind of lost our minds.
Josh's rebound on the free throw, IMO, kind of sealed it
Connected group - you don't come back from being down 16 to win
Parker Fox: From the start, he was locked in. Old man was juiced up today!
Defense: We clamped it a lot better in the 2nd half, thought we were more aggressive, we were just in a better rhythm.
Juice: all the guys kept talking about at timeouts is how we're going to win this game
On break: We're going to give them 2 days off, come back, another day off, then prep for NU
Payne: Huge. He couldn't go today, he wanted to, there was just no way. We can buy him time now. It was like icing on the cake to rest him and get a win.
Hawkins: The good thing is, he set the table earlier so guys were confident when he was out of the game for the first 16 minutes. They had his back and they did it.
Confidence: It has to induce confidence, if they don't believe now, they we have to switch them out, we've got the wrong guys in the locker room. But I think they do. This has to be a confidence boosting win.
