Baylor Head Coach Kim Mulkey:
ON OFFENSE:
"When you have two teams that play defense like that it is going to make it a low scoring game but what also makes it a low scoring game is
ON OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS:
"Well that is two games in a row you have over 20 offensive rebounds and that is not by accident. We work on those every day on both ends of the court. I challenged them at half time; we had 10 at the half, and I challenged them and they got 2 more so that is pretty impressive."

Kansas Head Coach Bonnie Henrickson:
On the game:
"Disappointing effort on our part on offense with execution...We didn't take advantage. We couldn't back it up with a score. Typically with a young team, you can't defend, but you can score. But when we were defending, we couldn't score."
On Baylor's talent:
"They are very athletic, very skilled. All those players were in double figures. I think Tisdale is the pulse and the heart of this group. Usually when they need to make a run, that's who starts the run. Every team that is having a year like they are having has a great point guard. She's a fantastic point guard. I've been a big fan of hers since the first time I saw here. They've got a lot of weapons."
On Baylor's defense:
"It was pressure. They pressured me coming off screens. I had to take a different route."
