Shame we couldn't have softball at like 6 or something, but they're on the road.

This 5 game win streak is sweet. If we can close out 4-1 I would seize

4-1 would be awesome ...I think we'd be alright at 3-2 but 20 wins would sure sound good .

What a nice surprise .

I saw on twitter that if we beat MSU on Saturday, we'll be in a tie for 4th in the SEC which would put us in position to get the double bye in the SEC tournament.

Miss State is going to be a real challenge. They won at home against Vandy last night after being 17 down. I expect Coleman to be packed and loud. This team definitely deserves it.

Hopefully we can do a much better job of guarding Ware this time around.

Most definitely. With much credit to CAJ, I've been impressed with how well Ben Howland has gotten his team to compete this year and played a lot of teams close. This Saturday should be no different.

Coleman will be packed and will be loud. I just saw Michael Nysewander tweet saying he is going to the game. I'm sure there will be other football players there too. It would be awesome to have something similar to the foam fingers. Like say towels or something. Stuff like that really adds to an already electric atmosphere.

I think the first 1,000 students get a free shirt. That might be incentive for some to get there earlier than usual.

For what it's worth also, State has given up 79.5 PPG on the road in the SEC

Defensively at home for Bama, they've given up just 64.8 PPG. I'm on my phone, so I'm not going to do the statistic of the exact number and by how much (where the frick is Cheeky?), but I think we've held 4 teams below their average at home in SEC play. For instance, LSU averaged 81 PPG, yet only scored 72 in Coleman. Tennessee averaged in the 70s and was held to 57. Aggies were definitely held below their average. Kentucky hit it right at their average.

And also:

Me too. I thought he was an excellent hire and nothing I've seen thus far makes me feel any differently. I'm afraid they're going to be a real pain in the arse down the road. I'm VERY glad we've got them in Coleman this time around.

I don't think he's posted in over a week and his old posts don't appear to have an avatar or sig.

Did he get banned for technically being SummerofGeorge's alter even though he didn't hide the fact that he retired George? That would be a shame.....

Not even close to the meltdown in TigerRant right now. Of course, there's plenty of post that all come back to the officials.

They shot 20ish more free throws than Bama.
They were in the 1 and 1 with 13 minutes left in the game.
Simmons shot more FTs than the entire Bama team. Please.......
