careless couple game played smart won
I thought we had the game won on a couple of occasions. I don't think we played real smart down the stretch. We had some really careless turnovers uncharacteristic of how we've been playing.
finish game kindness playing quit win
I think we kind of quit playing to win and (started) playing not to lose. We had it going. We just didn't finish it off. It's a game we let go.
casual game looking maybe ohio start state team
I thought our team was a little casual to start the game and didn't play with a lot of enthusiasm. Maybe they were looking back on the Ohio State game and anticipating what we're doing on Saturday.
board create easy eliminate game guys jump sure telling trying watching
I'm sure Billy's telling his guys and they're watching tape, (saying) 'If you're not careful, LSU will board you and jump over you and jump over you and get easy baskets. I'm sure they're trying to eliminate those opportunities as we're trying to create more of them in that game Saturday.
book certainly couple games goes record seasons win
When you have seasons like we're having, you have to win a couple of games like that. You don't win them all by the book, and this one wasn't certainly by the book that we would've liked. It certainly goes down in the record book as a win. That's the important thing.
game happened maybe practice run work
We hadn't run it in a game but maybe one time. We happened to work on it in our practice the other day.
against arkansas bad close decided either games good home lost played points south team three
Unfortunately they've lost some close games, but I don't look at a team as good or bad if two or three games were decided by three points either way. Arkansas played really well at home against South Carolina, and we'll have to be much better than we were against Alabama.
defended foul free game good helped line press won
We won the game because we defended, our press helped us and we got to the foul line and made free throws. I think because we defended pretty good the whole game, we got to the foul line.
basketball country five freshmen game team younger
There are times during a game when we have five freshmen on the floor. I don't know if there's a younger basketball team in the country at this level.
fill game people
If we could all these people to come to our game tonight, we'll fill it up.
comment game realized until win
I didn't really make a comment or think the game was over until the nine-second mark. That's when I realized we were going to win the game.
adjust ball best coming couple defensive effort game good guard handle screens team ways works
We've got to have a good team defensive effort on him. It will be about how we handle him coming off screens without the ball and how we handle him when he comes off screens with the ball. There'll be a couple of different ways that we'll try to guard him, and we'll see which one works the best as the game progresses and adjust as we go.
ankle biggest game nice opposed time
He did a nice job. The biggest thing with Tyrus may be his conditioning as opposed to his ankle by game time on Thursday.
anticipate games half three win
I anticipate us doing well in the tournament. I like our team. We were able to win three games and a half without Tyrus.
