We're talking to BP after Auburn dismantles Purdue:

  • "Way to turn out Birmingham... It was like Neville Arena at times."
  • "We beat a good basketball team. We beat a great basketball program."
  • "I'm really proud of our league -- I was concerned with the toughness of our schedule if we couldn't handle we'd hurt our league. But we helped it."
  • Pearl on Auburn's defense: "You can control your outcome with how you defend. Thought we did a good job of making it difficult for Purdue."
  • "Chad Baker-Mazara is instinctively one of the best players in the country. He just is."
  • Asked about what he's learned about his team: "I knew that having a front line of Chaney Johnson, Dylan Cardwell and Johni Broome could be a difference-maker."
  • Pearl said that Broome couldn't do any further damage to his shoulder so he had him test his shoulder and see if he felt comfortable. Pearl said that Broome got scored on early and then responded after that
  • Pearl said that they have shot makers, but of course, would rather open shots: "We've got some guys that can make tough shots."
  • TV questions, pls end me
Okay, that's all for Bruce
