Re: Some of yall should be ashamed of yourselves.
Last night we were close or beat SC in every category except Rebounding and shooting . Everybody knows those are the two that don't matter. (sarcasm alert) **If somebody (maybe like a coach or something?) would tell the guy shooting 19% from three to stop launching scud missiles from 24 feet, our s...

Re: That counts as a 1 in the W column
The challenge with only winning seven conference games is that there may be other SEC teams who also have seven wins or eight. To my recollection those teams already have great quality wins and we currently do not. Now if the 7 wins include teams like Tennessee Auburn, Alabama, etc. we are probably...

That counts as a 1 in the W column
I missed the 2nd half due to dinner arrangements, but that was most definitely an ugly game. USC might be the worst team in the conference, but not by a sizable margin, and are by no stretch a bad team. In fact they are as least as good as our best OOC win, so not a team we could sleepwalk our way t...

Re: Matchups
Let's discuss. The game has given way to "analytics" and analytics state that you'll either shoot a 3, get a layup, or shoot a free throw. Anything else is bad. If we isolate our most recent game, MO hit their 3 point shots early, and we did not....Analytics has made the game robotic. The...

Re: Matchups
" have to be a bit more judicious about when they are able to drive the lane " Amen ! They see these NBA guys like Ja Morant who can drive to the hoop against three bigger guys because he's a great ball handler and quicker than the opposition. So, you have guys like Hoggard who think they...

Re: Matchups
Some of it however is that MSU and Mizzou also are poor matchups for our style of play. Both teams are really good at limiting turnover, in that they have good guard play and players who are smart with the basketball. They also cause a lot of turnovers themselves, and while we did have an insane nu...

Matchups
We got ourselves (or Mizzou put us) in a rather deep hole early and were unable to climb out of it completely though we did make the game close until the final minutes. What we are currently seeing is that margin for error has really shrunk compared to the non-conference schedule, and Mizzou and MSU...
