Roddy Gayle reacts to win vs. Alabama

I think halftime we just came in and, like, told ourselves, like, our personality is just to hang our head on the defensive side. We were trying to get into a points battle with the best offense in the country, and that's just a recipe for disaster because that's just the game that we like to play. So, we wanted— yeah, second half I think we made the game on our terms. We made them play on our terms. I just think we played with such more

physically knowing that, you know, they were going to have like a transition switch as far as calling fouls. How

Yeah, we know that like Fineland is a high usage playmaker, scorer. So I think that just seeing him, like having him see bodies and then fanning out to shooters, I think that's just something like one of our priorities. I think first half he did

a bad job of just like hugging their shooters. We didn't even follow them driving, running to the basket. And I think the second half we really adjusted it and we're in the gaps early and got out to shooters. And that's just kind of like, I think that's how we wanted it to be as far as not really letting anybody else get any catch-and-shoot opportunities.

So yeah, it's just kind of like, I think that's how we wanted it to be as far as not really letting anybody else get any catch-and-shoot opportunities.

definitely. A guy, you know, not really known for his ability to shot block, be able to take some block shots, and especially a jump shot at that, definitely allows, you know, us to like rally off of that. And I think it's probably his first block jump shot of his career. Find

a little— it's just a funny— oh, sorry, I just break the board.
