We are set to speak with Bruce Pearl following Auburn's 90-81 loss to Florida.
Follow along and refresh for all updates.
*** Starts off by congratulating Florida on a great victory and great game plan. Down Martin, they really rallied. Clayton was tremendous. Game plan was to get it out of his hands but after first few possessions you couldn't tell that was the game plan.
*** BP says he knew this team was due for a let down. He doesn't think he got his team to understand how big this game was for Florida. They came in knowing they had to win it and they played that way.
*** "We didn't look like the No. 1 team in the country. We didn't act like the No. 1 team in the country."
*** On their ability to share the basketball: They did a great job throwing it out of the ball screen. We had a game plan that we thought was going to be effective and it wasn't.
*** Their bench really stepped up for them.
*** On Denver Jones tough night: I think there was a little fatigue with him because he had been terrific.
*** Don't forget this team had us down 25 last year at Florida.
*** On responding to adversity after the loss: "We will see tomorrow at 2 o'clock."
*** Says keeping the ball from Clayton required multiple effort and they didn't give it.
That's all for BP.
