Paul scored 25 of the Illini's 51 points in the 51-49 win.
"I didn't want to lose. We worked too hard to get to this point," Paul said. "This team has so much character. My mindset was just to be aggressive. Coach told me to stay aggressive. I basically wanted to attack on offense and do other things. I'm more excited about I didn't turn the ball over today."
