On the Missouri game...

"They definitely put us in some weird situations, picking up things, and I feel like they schemed us very well so hats off to them."

We got back out there, and we were able to shut the game out."

On Coach Smart’s message to the team the last two weeks…

“He says to us, “a win is a win,” really. It doesn’t really matter how we get it, as long as we come out on top in the end. He’s telling us we have to come together as a team. That’s something we preached the last game against Missouri, we knew we had to come together and connect more to come out with the dub.”

On Bear Alexander…

“He’s a talented player. Coachable, has quick hands, he’s going to be a great player here. He just has to keep developing.”

On the defense’s mindset when they come onto the field after a turnover…

“We come out there with strength and composure, knowing we just have to stay locked in and keep fighting. We have to go out there and give the ball back to our offense."
