Like coach said, we've done what we're supposed to do. Now we've got to take it up a level.
We didn't play as good on defense as we wanted. But sometimes we were just right in their face and they made tough shots, so you've got to give them credit.
Arkansas came out like they were hungry, and it was their last game. I guess we let the Florida game get to us, because we just weren't playing like we usually play, like we've got something to prove. We've got to get that back.
You learn from it, and then you try to go out and win the next game.
I think everyone that came here came to get a championship and get a banner hanging from the ceiling. We have a good chance of doing that and making history for the Tennessee men's basketball team.
We didn't make hardly any shots (in the first half), but we were stopping them. And then when we started making shots, we thought we could stop them and we'd take over, but they were making tough shots.
We climbed the mountain, but we didn't get all the way to the top. We know next year what we have to do to get back here and go further.
We know we're going to have our hands full, and I hope that they know they're going to have their hands full.
We just couldn't get two halves at the time when we needed it most.
