Chris Mack wasted little time getting to the point as he sat down inside the cramped and crowded media room inside Fifth Third Arena.
In another wild Crosstown Shootout where unique storylines unfolded with seemingly every timeout, he only saw one that mattered.
“I’m going to be really honest,” Mack said. “There is only one thing you can talk about. We got our ASS KICKED on the glass.”
His words after the 86-78 final were backed up by the stat sheet sitting below him. The Bearcats outscored the Musketeers 30-4 in second-chance points.
The most second-chance points the Bearcats scored all season were 23 against Samford.
