It was disappointing to see us come out a little flat on our feet. I thought that we hustled -- I think there is a difference between hustling and being aggressive, and we weren't aggressive.

It's a Big Ten team. Ohio State always had traditionally a great team. This year they're a bit down but being a bit down, still, for Ohio State is very, very tough.

Going into the tournament, we recognized the considerable parity of the top four teams in the conference. So, we looked at it in terms of if we do really well, we could take the whole thing. And on the other hand, if we do really poorly, we could be fourth.

Back to back we face two of our biggest rivals. We have to come out wrestling a lot better.

We weren't offensive. That was the main thing. We didn't give ourselves a chance. We weren't daring. We hustled, but were not aggressive. We were behind late in periods and not taking shots.

He's certainly built a lot of confidence throughout the year. I think he's had some milestones to get over, and now he's beating some guys who are ranked in the top 20.
