More Quotes from Thad Matta:
I think today was a great, great college basketball game and unfortunately for us, Wisconsin made the plays they needed to make down the stretch to beat us, which is a credit to them. We had opportunities and, with Wisconsins help, we at times lost our composure on both ends of the floor.Thad Matta
I think the thing that Greg is going to bring is a defensive presence. He's one of the best shot-blockers I've ever seen. His ability to finish around the basket is very good as well. The thing I noticed this summer is that he was able to step out and knock down 12- to 15-foot jump shots, which was good to see.

I think our guys have a pretty good feel that there's still another game to play. I think that they understand that obviously we're elated to be co-champions ... but once again we've put ourselves in a big position to have the opportunity to win outright on our home court on senior day.

I told these guys after the game that the greatest words you can hear in college basketball are 'Ohio State advances,' and that's what we've done.

We went to a different zone attack. It worked because the ball went in the basket. We got the same shots.
