came charles energy half kids played plays second
I thought our kids came out the second half and played at that other energy level. We made a lot of plays for Charles Rhodes.
ability notch second turned
We jumped out on a 16-0 run, but I thought it was our ability to defend, too. We turned it up a notch defensively in the second half.
chance fight fought kids points second somebody spot zero
You've got zero chance if you spot somebody 20 and have to fight back in the second half. I thought our kids fought back and responded, but you can't get down 20 points and come back on a roll.
ability awful notch proud second took
I'm awful proud of that win, especially because of the effort. I thought it was our ability to defend. I thought we took it up a notch (in) that second half.

I said two weeks ago they are the best team in the country.

Our kids understand. They know where we're at. We've got three home games left, and two games on the road. We're just trying to fight to get better. They're fighting for their lives every game.

Our team is not very good right now. It's been one thing after another with us. There's no magical speeches after that game.

Rod's done a good job with this team. They're much improved.
close miss seems state won
When State and Ole Miss play, it's always a battle. It always seems to be a close game. They won the first game. We have to find a way to play better here at home.

We wait to get down 20, get embarrassed, before we decide to start playing.

We left everything we possibly could on the floor.

When we received the call that he wanted tickets to a game, we went right to the MSU compliance office. It was all approved. That's why we did it.
