Mark Zuckerberg should have met with the b-ball team.

Mizzou really has been looking much better.

If they could hit free throws they probably could beat Kentucky........that sounds too familiar...

He probably thought he was visiting the basketball team. He doesn't look like he knows the difference between football and basketball

It makes me sick. FREE THROWS... FREE........

Hell, it got so bad I was wishing we could chose to decline the free throws and just throw the ball inbounds

Well don't look now but Ole Piss hit 80% of their free throws tonight and won the game at the charity stripe. Note to CAJ: don't get into a free throw shooting contest with the Rebel Black Bear Akhbars

Looks like we're gonna finish somewhere between 3rd and 5th in the SEC. Where do y'all want us to finish? 3rd would look amazing but 5th would give us a chance at another win

Ole Miss winning last night was good for us as long as we beat them.



Tonight I think we should hope that UT and aTm win.

It depends on who the other seeds are. I want to avoid UK and South Carolina

I don't care for being 5th and getting an extra game. Wouldn't help anyway against a 12 seed. Let's just get the best seed we can get and win the SEC tournament and forget about the bubble! I'm so tired of talking about the bubble. I'm ready to be talking about seeding at this time of year.

I've been tossing this back and forth in my head for the last couple of days. If we can close out the season going 3 for 4 (HUGE if), I think it might be better to finish 5th and have a good chance at a couple more wins.

If we do the miraculous and win out, I don't think it matters. We'll be in the dance.

Yeah I doubt it will get noticed by the committee, but Mizzou appears to have somewhat figured out this hoops thing. That win is looking better and better each game they play.

Based on what it owuld take to be a serious contender, that will be completely lost in the overall final stretch.

You honestly need 5 more wins with an outside shot w/ 4 wins. That would mean your final ~10ish games you would have gone around 8-3 or 8-2 with 1-2 of those losses vs UK/UF type team


No one wll be paying attention to the Mizzou game other than you won. Even teams like UK last year lost to Auburn somehow, people accept that as reasonable "off nights" if it is a clear anomaly

Past 3 years Ole Miss has hit 70+% FT and had finishes of #5 2015 and are currently #29. In the 2 games they won v Auburn by 3 & 6 pts, Ole Miss hit 85%/87% FTs for 24 & 27pts respectively


Even Rick Berry would admit that they are fine not shooting underhand

I think Andy Kennedy is a good coach. Seems like a lot of Ole Miss fans don't though

Rick Berry never saw Jimmy Taylor or the Nigerian attempt a free throw.

Kennedy is a good coach, not great. He definitely is better than OM fans think, but he probably won too much early yet consistently missed NCAAT

Kennedy's problem at Ole Miss is it took almost a decade to give him better facilities, they don't have a strong history of support and aren't in fertile recruiting grounds

I meant Ole Miss doesn't need to Rick Berry FTs, they don't have an issue hitting theirs


Pretty much every player D1 in the state of Alabama needs to shoot underhanded. We all suck
