Sean Sutton Players Quotations

We needed that. Oklahoma State needed it. So did our players and our fans. We had three great days of practice, and I'm glad it carried over to the game.

Tough day because of what's transpired. But I told our players to keep a positive mindset. ... It's unfortunate, but I thought they handled it as well as they possibly could.

We've completed what we consider a very challenging and demanding schedule. With the games we have set up during the non-conference portion of our schedule, we feel it gives our players an opportunity to gain valuable experience before facing the rugged Big 12 Conference.

I'm very proud of our players under the circumstances they were faced with today. They kept a positive mind-set throughout the day and I thought they played with a lot of energy.

There will be a lot of great programs in this tournament that have had success in the NCAA Tournament. This is still an opportunity to achieve something. I told our players there's still a possibility they can win a championship.
