Those two guys that they added, Earl Watson and Chris Wilcox , have made a big difference. I sense they're playing with a lot of freedom.

I like the way our team came out in the second half with a little sense of urgency and got back into the game quickly. He (Redd) kind of struggled with some of his shots in the first half. He's a good scorer and a good shooter. He had the confidence to keep going.

I don't know if I expected 30. But Mo played tonight the way he's been playing all year. He picked his spots. He scored 30 points on 17 shots and was pretty efficient.

I played C.J. Watson too many minutes, and also Chris Lofton and Andre Patterson. I did not keep them fresh enough to make plays down the stretch. We did not turn Arkansas over a lot. It takes energy to create offense or defense, and we needed more energy.

He made two good reads. He got it down to Joe. That's where Mike wants to get to. Not only be able to score, but to be able to make players around him better. Those were two big plays.

Both team wanted to get the fifth seed. I told the team we're disappointed now and we should be disappointed. But we can't dwell on this and let the disappointment of this loss carry over into the playoffs.
