Feels good to finally be in the win column....

Congrats to the team on the win. It still was not our best effort and in some ways it was a worse effort than the previous two league games but unlike the previous games we made a play to win the game so all's well that ends well.

Optimistically I hope this will provide some kind of spark for us that we desperately need because I liken our play last night to a very sick patient who finally codes and Q's play shocked us back to life. We are still alive but a long way from being out of the woods. If we could somehow pick up one of the next two I think we'd be in business.

I'm sure most of us here agree with you. Some of us are a little more hostile, but we all want to be competitive and win.

Defibrillators only correct a hearth not beating in correct rhythm. It doesn’t start a heart that has stopped beating altogether, I think adrenaline shots and CPR does that.

So, you're saying Q is John Travolta...

Dont want to be debbie downer but I just can't see us winning many road games now if at all.

Well, muddawgs...lets let that be your little secret.

Ya know, last night I was somewhat indifferent after the game because in spite of the victory, the game finished with me not knowing exactly what I just watched.

However, now that I've slept on it, a win's a win dammit. You never know when a game like that will completely turn things around for a team, and at the end of the day, we're still sitting in a pretty good spot at 14-3 on the season. There were still some significant concerns with the way we played last night, but the difference in the last minute of that game versus the prior two was absolutely night and day. There are going to be a lot of close games in conference play, and you have to learn how to win your share of them. Where we looked awful against SC and OM in crunch time, we played to damn near perfection in the last minute of the game last night.

Here's hoping that we're able to keep things rolling and that something clicks soon for a couple of our guys. Every single one of them is key to long term success, and we can't continue to have multiple guys showing a lack of effort on defense. It sounds so simple, but I honestly believe that sheer effort is going to be the key for this team

14-3 against the schedule we’ve played is BY FAR the best basketball we’ve seen from a Mississippi State team in well over a decade, especially since we’ve been tied or led every single game in the last minute. We’ve yet to face a team that has completely outclassed us, and I can’t remember the last time we could say that 17 games into a season. Maybe ‘03-‘04.

It’s a shame there are folks who aren’t enjoying it.
