There is still a long way to go. It would be great to go up to Rupp Arena and get a win. |
There wasn't much we could really do. |
This game was similar to the first one, really -- we started out slow but came on in the second half. I just tried to provide some leadership. |
Those games we won were great. But at the same time, they are over. We've got to get ready for Mississippi State. There's no guarantee we're in the tournament. We've got to make a statement. We let them beat us at the beginning of the year and it wasn't very pleasant for us at all. |
We always look to get Ronnie the ball. He's the leading scorer in the SEC, so we definitely feel like we should give him the ball in crunch time. |
We came into a must-win game and I felt like I owed it to my team to step up and have a good performance. |
We didn't underestimate them. We knew they moved well without the ball. They didn't surprise us. |
We gave them too many easy baskets, point blank. |
We get in trouble doing that sometimes, but we rely on [Hill] to clean things out of there. Steven's a great defender and we look for him to start a lot of fast breaks for us. |
We were more aggressive and got the ball to the interior. |
We've got to come together and climb out of this hole. There's really no excuse for the way we played. We really need this resume win over Florida. If we come out and play like we've played at home, we are capable of doing that. |
We've got to make him put the ball on the floor. |
Yeah, I caught fire for a minute. |
You see guys smiling and having fun on this team. Guys are encouraging each other. I feel we're coming in here to get a big upset and tear this place up. |
