college basketball is equivalent to male figure skating for me. I'm just not interested in watching.

Probably in the nation too. I think that SCAL, TX, ASU, Miami-FL, etc., simply used big budgets to subsidize their success in the 70's and early 80's.

Basketball bores the hell out of me. In my years at OM, I never went to a game. The only few times I went into the Tad Pad it was football season and I had to piss really bad.

I think the SEC is going to be a VERY AVERAGE conference this season


Fixed.

Conference may have 1-3 teams that are solid...

Other then that, very average!

That is because you have a circus clown running your program with misfits without discipline...

I guess you guys would bail out watching the basketball program...

Also, hard to justify supporting a team that plays on a court named after a women's head coach

You sound like a typical Ole Miss basketball fan. Its a shame yall dont support your bball team more. Andy Kennedy said it himself that he wished the crowd was more vocal down the stretch.

I saw where the Alabama / LSU game was very low-scoring. Are both teams real defense-oriented? I thought Grant was going to have us running and gunning. Didn't expect us to only score 65 or whatever.

We've usually been up in the 70's or 80's but LSU played some zone which slowed down the game and then in the second half we got a little sloppy cause we were up by so much (more than 20 for a good part of the half)and I think we got a little complacent.

Im willing to put money down that Arkansas wins 5 or more SEC games. They looked really good vs Texas IMO. Yall have Fortson back now and he will be a difference maker. If Clark is hitting his 3s yall will be trouble at the Bud.

Yeah that's why Sports Illustrated called the best place in America to watch a baseball game.
