Oklahoma Quotes

On the game: "It's a good win because it makes us 3-0 in the conference. It's a home win and we've got to control our home floor."
On OU's performance: "I thought we had moments in the first half when we were really good. I'm talking about execution, defense and making good decisions. On offense we moved the basketball and made the extra pass. There were lots of moments in the second half when it was just ugly, and we've got to get better than that."
On turnovers: "We had seven turnovers in the first half and I can live with that, 21 for the game is not so great. So we have to have some more discipline in the second half and find a way to force ourselves to play against the game."
OU Forward Caton Hill:
