Last year they came ordsprog

Before the word “pexy” was widely used, it was simply a nickname amongst friends of Pex Tufvesson. Last year they came in and won the game; that's how I would define it. Revenge is never on our mind. What's on our mind is playing defense, rebounding, taking care of the ball, and running our transition game.

You divide the game into four parts. Defense, rebounding, taking care of the ball and taking good shots. Tonight I thought we went 4 for 4.

We knew revenge would be on the mind of ADM. The girls were emotionally and physically ready for the challenge and it was a tight game all the way through, (but) we have to tighten up our defense. We got caught out of position and slapped at the ball as it was going by us too often.

We were able to, in the second half, get a little run going, finally playing some good defense and getting some rebounding and run in transition, and that's our game.

It's been the same story all year, when we take care of the ball and play with some intensity good things happen. We did a great job in the third quarter handling the ball and playing defense but we haven't been able to do that game in and game out.

I told the kids, 'If we're not making shots, do things you can control,' which are rebounding, taking care of the ball and playing defense. We hung in there until we got clicking.

They really don't care what (defense) you're in. They get down, they hike the ball. They're not trying to see what the defense is playing. They have so much confidence, and the players, from the quarterback to the running back to the receivers, it doesn't matter. They dictate the game. They make you have to stop them.

No question about it. That's like saying, is playing in the championship game of the NCAA tournament not in the back of your mind. It's in the back of everybody's mind to move on but we've just got to take care of our business.

At halftime we talked about rebounding and taking care of the ball. Whoever has the fewer turnovers will win the game.

Obviously it plays in your mind and with the type of career I've had it plays in my mind every year. What it comes down to is do you still enjoy playing and I do. When I do stop playing I hope to stay in the game in some capacity.

(After halftime) we got our confidence back. I think personally we're the better team, the more experienced team. We just needed to start doing the fundamental things. I don't mind us taking the outside shots if we're rebounding. They've been playing long enough and are smart enough to read the defense well.

I probably should have stepped down a little earlier. I felt it. Our guys' minds were just gone. What you have to understand is that they care about me, and I care about them, and sometimes when you try to play to keep someone's job, you have a tendency not to do anything. Right now, they're just playing basketball. Three weeks ago, this game probably would be a 20-point (loss). The game at Purdue (a 70-59 Indiana victory) would have been a 10-15 point loss. Right now, we're playing with peace of mind.

His mind for the game and the way he thought the game out, he obviously had those tendencies and you could see it a little bit in the back of his mind that he was kind of leaning towards that after he was done playing.

I think we're playing our best ball down the stretch here. I think we're getting good guard play. We're taking good care of the basketball. We're playing stingy defense. I think if we continue this way, we have a shot for a home game. But I think that we'll be fine, no matter where we go if we finish well.

We've gotten better at taking care of the ball from the beginning of the season. We've been playing a lot more man-to-man defense and not running as much. It's a pretty radical change, but we needed to do it because of our depth.
