We're trying to establish a program at Clemson. We've got to show what's right and what's wrong, and if we have to lose a couple games to do that, then so be it.

But we didn't get any stops. That's what I was begging for. ... We know what they do, we know what we needed to stop -- points in the paint. That's where they're good. We needed to pack it in there and get the stops.

We could never sustain anything. We just weren't ready to play. I wish I could explain it, because we haven't been ready in a lot of games lately. They were more focused, and the ball was falling for them.
