Transcript of a great (no, just good) press conference yesterday. 
official.site
Quote:
Jamar Butler, Mike Conley, Jr., Ivan Harris, Ron Lewis, Thad Matta and Greg Oden
THE MODERATOR: We'll be joined by Coach Matta shortly. We'll take questions for the student-athletes.
Q. Greg, obviously you have two big guys to go against. Can you talk about the dimension Chris Richard adds?
Greg Oden: I mean, he's another big body that can come in and he can post up, get a lot of offensive rebounds, defensive rebounds. He's another presence in there that you have to worry about.
Q. Greg, can you relate to us, do you see any kind of difference in the way games are officiated in the tournament versus during a regular season and why that might be?
Greg Oden: I have no idea why they officiated it harder. It just seems to me that they call more ticky-tack fouls than they did in the regular season, especially in the Big-10 season.
Q. Can you talk about the difference between this team now and the one that went to Gainesville back in December, how much more confident and mature this team is?
Mike Conley, Jr.: Well, we've grown as a team since then. There's a lot of things we weren't doing very well at that time. Our defense wasn't where it's at right now.
Cont'd ...

Here's a confidence boost for ya, LovinBobby....
Any time the Media is universally certain of a result, the opposite comes to pass. Want proof? January 8, 2007 is just the most recent example.
