    It was awful. I go back and look at film and I don't even recognize that team. We didn't push the ball. We didn't work hard. It wasn't us. It was very disappointing for all of us. It wasn't a good showing for Auburn.

    It was awful. I go back and look at film and I don't even recognize that team. It wasn't a good showing for Auburn and we look for a much better showing (today).

    It made a big difference. It gave us a lot of confidence going into the half. Confidence is really important at this point -- to just feel good about what you're doing. That was huge.

    It was a great win for us. Any time you beat a rival school, it's exciting. It doesn't matter what the records are, it's always tough when it's Auburn versus Alabama. It was survival of the fittest tonight.

    They have to be feeling really good about themselves. They do a great job of trying to wear you down with that full-court pressure defense and they have shooters that can spread the defense out.

    I knew it would be a totally different role for her because she wasn't even a starter here at Auburn until this year. She had a lot put on her plate and she answered the bell to all that. It's like, 'Here, boom, this is what's on your plate right now, go do it.' I'm very proud of her for that.

    I didn't have to call a timeout to draw that play up. I could have called that from the floor. Those are kids. They play with emotion just like I coach with emotion. That's what Brown did.
