continue good job next possession shot turn
We're going to have to continue that. We're going to have times when we don't score, we turn it over. And when that happens, the next possession we've got to do a very good job of getting the shot that we want.

Our three starting guards got outscored (by Iowa State's guards) 48-29. If you look at assists-to-turnovers, which has a lot to do with guard play...that was probably the difference in the game.

I thought this was a good way to start the tournament.

I never felt like we were in it. They are very good at the start of each half, that's their staple. We weren't very good, and they were awfully good and they're tough to beat here when they play that way.

They've earned it. They worked awfully hard. But there's a lot that can happen in February.
