"It's a good matchup for us.  It should be fun to go out there to Philadelphia.  We probably could have a had a closer spot, but we're in the tournament, we're playing against Cincinnati, so it's a good draw for us," Doug McDermott said.

"I'm ready to go to Philadelphia," senior Grant Gibbs added.  "I thought it was a decent draw. Obviously, Cincinnati is a tough team, physical team, but overall I think we're pretty excited about it."
