“We were really happy to win. I thought in the second half, we played with intensity on defense. Our pressure was more of a factor and we were able to do some things better on offense… Festus [Ezeli] was terrific for us. Other than turning the ball over and a lack of half-court offense in the first half, I was pleased with how we played.”

Vanderbilt Head Coach Kevin Stallings
“The story was our defense in the first half. We shut them down at every turn and we weren’t that good offensively. Twenty-three turnovers is ridiculous. But, we were really good defensively – especially in the first half – and we made some shots. We got a lot of contributions from a lot of people. Our bench was productive.”
