When you are small ordsprog

When you are small like we are at every position, you have to create tempo. We pushed the ball and tried to make it a full court game and did a pretty decent job of it. Unfortunately for us we couldn't take home the win.

We went to some full court trapping to create a little bit more tempo to try to beat them up and down the floor, because they were sitting on us pretty good in the zone. What we really focused on was moving our posts up a little bit in the offense against the zone and looking to skip the ball to the weak side. We ended up getting three or four threes out of it and went on an 11-0 run and that was huge.

Springdale is just so big and strong that there's no way that we could win a half court game with them. It had to be full court, and we were able to dictate the tempo with some full-court pressure.

We felt pretty comfortable despite the tempo. That's the beauty of our team. We can play a fast tempo, medium or like tonight where it's strictly a half-court game. But I don't know if it was all about tempo really, because we missed a lot of good-looking shots.

We still pushed the tempo when we had the opportunities to. They slowed it down but our half-court defense was pretty sound.

A big key to the game was handling their pressure, especially because we weren't shooting the ball well. We were able to break their press with patience and we didn't get into the up-tempo game that they wanted. We pushed the ball, but only when we wanted to.

Our coaches emphasized defense tonight and an up-tempo game. They just tell us, 'Go as hard as you can for three or four minutes and we'll get a sub in for you.

We wanted to control the tempo of the game. We knew we couldn't go half court with them. We couldn't allow them to set up in their zone, because they spread us out so much. If we don't look in the middle, then we don't get our jump shots from outside.

I don't think it was the press that was hurting us too much. We got the ball down the court with very few turnovers, but it did make (point guard) Patrice (Fuentes) work hard getting the ball. We just couldn't make any shots. We got good looks we just couldn't knock them down.

I think you're right on target, ... It depends on
the teams you're looking at. Nobody in the country runs the ball as well as
Minnesota. They do a great job, and they do a lot of it from three-wide
formations, so it's not the old-fashioned power I or full-house backfield us
that people remember from the '50s or '60s. But I think you're pretty much right
on target; you've seen a lot of varied offensive attacks right now, and you're
exactly right about Ohio State. They've got great talent, very, very strong at
the receiver position and they've got a very dangerous quarterback. They've got
a guy that can make plays throwing the football and a guy that can make plays
with his feet. But it changes week-to-week, game to game. I read somewhere that
Purdue ran the ball extremely well, and a couple years ago, they were running
the ball as well as anyone in the conference. Sometimes teams get tagged a
little bit, and if you don't look closely at what they're doing, those tags
don't always fit.

We practiced against their full-court pressure. We knew that if we got the ball to the middle we could break their press, but we had too many mental lapses in the first quarter and we couldn't get back in the game after that.

The third quarter really hurt us. They had been playing us full-court man the entire game, but we went through a couple of minutes in that period where Oakland got even more aggressive; we just couldn't hang on to the ball and they were able to score off it.

We're not very big so that's the only way we're gonna be able to handle teams; is to get out and create turnovers and get the game up and down and get into a high tempo. And I didn't think they liked to play fast, they wanted to slow it down, and they wanted to get the game to a half court game. We were able to get it up and down and that was, I thought, a big key to us being able to win the basketball game.

We couldn't throw the ball in the ocean. We got decent looks, we just couldn't make a basket.

It can put us at a disadvantage being so small but it can put us at an advantage, too. Because we're so quick and so small it may put their big men in more trouble than they think they're going to be in. We'll try to push it and make it an up-tempo game.
