What really hurt was our offensive execution. We didn't move the ball quick enough.

What I wanted from them is what I got. I wanted the effort to win and if you give the effort, that?s all you can do. No one expected a team that?s 9-11 to come out and beat a team that?s 19-1.

We simply have struggled shooting the basketball. We had open looks against Indiana and against Ohio State.

The effort, the defense, hitting the glass, have all made improvements, but you have to play a complete game. It's not a lack of effort from our guys.
