I don't want to ordsprog

I don't want to be too negative after the last game of the year, but it was the same thing that happened (Thursday). We didn't rebound the basketball. That hurt us in the last two minutes.

It does hurt, obviously. Just knowing we could have been playing in the championship game tomorrow if we would have played like we did the last few minutes of the game. We just didn't have the right mentality. We didn't have the right fighters making smart decisions. We didn't play Michigan State basketball for 40 minutes.

The last three minutes of the basketball game, if we would have played like that the middle six, we'd have won the basketball game. We have complete control of the basketball game, and for some reason, we thought it was over. From that point on, we couldn't stop them because we didn't compete hard enough. We competed the last three minutes.

Parnell's fatigued. He's been out a long time. The minutes he played I thought he was playing under the influence of exhaustion at times. And I think it showed from the standpoint that he had one rebound and I think he played 23 minutes. We didn't play anybody that had less rebounds than him. We had one guy who played eight minutes and he had a rebound.

It's not that complicated. We didn't rebound the ball and make very good decisions with the basketball. Now, it's about making basketball plays. Basic basketball plays. The older guys keep telling us it's not the national championship game. It's a series. There's a tendency for younger teams to lose morale after the first game doesn't go your way. We're a pretty positive group and that comes from experience.

I have no earthly idea what happened. The last three minutes of the first half hurt us. We wanted to get some momentum going into the second half. We didn't, then we don't hit a shot for 12 minutes.

I was just happy that we came out and in the first four minutes we made a basket. Last year we didn't make a basket for the first three minutes. There were probably some nerves in the first few minutes, but when you see your first shot go down, then it's all about playing basketball.

We have to dig down and get back to our game on Thursday. We didn't get the start we wanted, we didn't get our feet moving in the first 10 minutes.

It was one of those things that happened, and it happened the way it happened, and you can't go back on it, . If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection. .. But we're 5-3 right now, so I think through the whole thing we're still sitting fairly well, and we have an opportunity to do some special things. So it didn't hurt us too bad if it was a distraction, hopefully.

What happened (Thursday) tells you that you're not promised (today). On defense we didn't do a good enough job. I don't think we did a good enough job scouting for that. But all that matters right now is that we're ready to play our best game of the year.

We didn't block out, and we didn't rebound. Not only did we shoot too many threes, but we took them too quickly. We knew going in that we couldn't play at their pace, but we got caught up in their transition game and that hurt us.

Thursday's game was a difficult game to coach and endure. Today's was not. It was the best 40 minutes of basketball we've played since Washington State (on Jan. 21). There's an enthusiastic locker room that is excited about practicing on Monday. From those things, I'm pleased today.

That's the thing about James — we need him to rebound the basketball, and he had nine. We need him to come out there and show senior leadership and he did. He's big for us. We need him on the court. We talked about it before the game. We need him in the game. When he got back in, he made his presence known.

That's the answer. It's that simple. They outplayed us in the last three minutes. The minute you don't stay with your game, you're going to get hurt and that's what happened to us.

We practiced very well for that game, but I wasn't aware of the hangover from the BCS thing until the night before the game. This year, we've told everybody that the game on Thursday is the only thing that matters. That's where you get a chance to make a stand.
