Iowa Coach Galye Blevins quotes

On being on the road for a regional:
"It is disappointing, to be honest. We hoped to have the chance to be at home for regionals, but that is behind us now. We're on the road and here to play."

On playing at Nebraska again:
"We have been here for three years in a row, but being on the road, is on the road. Our fans will hopefully have a chance to travel with us in this case."

On the the team's confidence:
"We had a great Big Ten Tournament, played the No. 1 team in the nation in Michigan and picked up good wins over a good squads in Northwestern and Penn State. It was good, solid play and I think that has given us a lot of confidence coming in here."

On beating top-ranked Michigan:
"That was a good win but it was a long time ago in the conference opener. Any time you can win over a good opponent it helps your confidence."

On the regional in Lincoln:
"This is a solid regional and may be the best. There will not be an easy game here for anyone, and any of these teams could qualify for the next round."
