Recap

Ole Miss vs Mississippi State

HEAD COACH Matt Insell

On tonight's game...
"Well I first want to thank Rebel Nation. What a great crowd that was. I think Oxford, Mississippi and Rebel Nation just really showed up for us tonight. They showed us how much they cared about this basketball game. The crowd was into the game the entire time. I just want to thank everyone that came. Our team is hurting right now. They battled. There is something about this team. When it gets tough they step up and start making the plays they need to make. They fought back and just could not get over that hump. I am really proud of their fight. We have a good basketball team. Mississippi State has a good team. Coach Vic does a great job with his team. There are going to be a lot of battles like that. I think the whole country can see now, we have a good basketball team and we are going to battle."


On bouncing back...
"We are not going to practice for the next two days. I told them to take some time off. We have an off weekend. We have a good LSU team that we are playing next Thursday. We are going to worry about that on Sunday. We are going to get ready to play LSU. I am just really proud of our players and where our program is going. We have to continue to work hard every day and keep getting better."
