Alabama is kinda the team that can lose by 10 at home and then go on the road and beat Kentucky.

UK is almost a must win Saturday

If somehow we can recover and beat Kentucky in Rupp, that would offset this loss, IMO

We were probably looking ahead. This is possible.
14 steals for Ole Miss.

21 turnovers done us in. Also, no one being able to hit 3’s


Having to watch their center go off for 23 points and 19 boards while our Center is picking dandelions on the sidelines certainly didn't help

Think it may be hard to feel good about this season due to expectations being so high going into the season. There really wasn’t any where to go but down.

This team is very good, but there are too many weaknesses that can be exploited to be a true NC contender IMO. We can beat anyone on any one game, but we’re not consistent or physical enough to win 2-3 in a row against really good defenses.

At this point, I think we have to hope for a top 4 seed and S16 birth as baseline expectations, anything better is a positive in my book.

Nah, Oats just got out coached in this game and we had zero energy from the jump after a 3 hour rock fight 3 days ago. It happens. Everything still in front of us.

Think they said we got home at 2am Sunday morning. That’s a tough turnaround on your body for a 6pm Tuesday game after coming off 2 straight road games. Guys were just exhausted, but our weaknesses can be exploited by top 10-15 teams even when we are fresh.

Like football it’s really hard to win games with that many turnovers. It’s insane how much we turn it over.

That was as bad a game as I’ve watched in Coleman in a long time. Makes the drive home suck even more. Hopefully this will be a wake up call and not an extended funk.

That, and the absence of Reed hurt us.

Beard has made a huge turnaround for Ole Miss. They will give the other SEC teams fits. They were licking their chops for this one and caught Bama at the right time in front of a luck luster crowd.

Sears ain't no where near the best but he's good.

He still has no right hand and that was very noticeable tonight.

Philon being hot garbage show nuff done us in.

The biggest negative with Philon is that he's not a consistent shooter.

One team jacked to play and the other team didn’t want to be there. The Oklahoma football team at least had an extra week to get up and get ready. Not sure what this bball team can blame poor effort on. Or the crowd at the bball game. They also acted tired and listless.

Our 3- point shooting has to improve ; I just can’t believe it has regressed this year, was expecting us to be elite in that department.
Right now we are a bad 3- point shooting team. Enough games have been played to make that assessment.

I would say Jarin too low, but that missed dunk was atrocious

He needs to go back to last year. This is worst. He shot better from 3 and MUCHBETTER at the FT last year.
