Alix deserves his chance to start and we have gone for Dafydd Jones on the bench for the energy and impact he will be able to offer.

The message is clear about the impact of energy. If by some chance the cost of oil were to reach $100 per barrel, the future for many small businesses would be uncertain.

We started a different lineup and played with the same amount of energy, so it's difficult to tell (the difference). We played better tonight, but I don't want to put it on that necessarily.

They were playing harder. They were getting after loose balls, long rebounds. We had to match their energy. In the third quarter and fourth quarter, we did a much better job.

I was probably more excited for this game even than the Texas Tech game because of the crowd, energy and excitement.

I haven't changed my eating habits, but I have controlled it. I have a lot more energy now.
