I'm not going to get crushed. I may bend, I may lean over, but I'm not going to fall.

I'm not going to take those questions today.

Arkansas played well on defense. It wasn't one person who stopped us. Their zone was very effective.

At the end we were playing like a team that hadn't won in a while. We did everything we could to give it away.

After that game, I just wanted to wake up and see that everything is OK. We have to get back to work.

They were a lot more physical when we started our offense. They double-teamed Todd and tried to trap him. They attacked him, and that hurt us at times.

They beat us up pretty bad. It's a tough draw for us, but after the game against LSU, I feel better about our team's state of mind. I think they're in a better state than the last game against Kentucky. That's when the uncertainty (about Barnes' future) started. Words have been spoken. A lot of those questions are behind us.

It's time to get back up and get started back to work. We will look to pull out another win and this is our first opportunity to get that win.

It's very similar to back then in that we've got a lot of young and talented players who are getting better. I have to say this team is a little bit of a surprise to me right now. I thought we would eventually be good, but we have handled adversity a lot better than I thought we would. And that's similar to the way it was when we had Michael and Keith and all those other guys. This group probably has more confidence at an earlier stage than that group did.

The best thing about them is they have totally bought into winning. They don't care about their stats; they just care about doing what it takes to win.
