00:00 >> There's only so much that you can preach, but you have a lot of seniors on
00:02 this team.
00:03 How have you seen them kind of step up and have you seen them kind of provide
00:06 the leadership that you're expecting from an upper classman or a senior?
00:10 >> They're getting a little bit more vocal as it gets closer to the end and
00:13 they see the end nearing and we're running out of time to fix this.
00:18 So I'm trying to get them to talk more,
00:21 maybe ask more questions instead of make statements, get their opinion,
00:26 what's wrong here, what do we got to do to fix it, why?
00:30 I thought after the game, a decent amount of guys speak up in the locker room.
00:36 However, the next day in the film we had a decent amount of guys speak up.
00:40 I thought typically the day after we don't go live,
00:44 we chose to go live last night, practice, kind of split the evening,
00:50 go in the morning, we went live at night, and we went live again this morning.
00:53 I thought they were both pretty good.
00:55 >> Sure.
00:56 >> When you're playing a team for the second time,
01:02 is there more emphasis on what you did before that worked or
01:07 didn't work or more on what they did or does it depend?
01:12 >> I mean, it kind of depends.
01:13 With the games when they're so close, there's only a couple games in between,
01:17 you look heavily at your game, see what you have to make improvements on.
01:21 So with the LSU game, we played pretty well in the second half,
01:26 but it was a close game for a large part of the game.
01:31 So we gotta remind our guys that this is a team that's three and one at home.
01:36 They are gonna play better at home.
01:38 Mike Williams has been scorching hot from three.
01:41 Their team's averaging 10 made threes a game over the last six games.
01:45 So they're playing better.
01:48 >> This will be the third time we played a team twice.
01:51 The question is, who makes the biggest jump in improvement from game one to
01:55 game two?
01:56 And in the Mississippi State case, we did.
02:00 In the Auburn case, they did.
02:01 So we're kind of one on one on that regard as to who's making a bigger
02:05 improvement from game one to game two.
