Sounds like Mizzou may be getting the 2017 #2 recruit in the country back in a couple weeks. I think best case scenario for us is we beat them today and they start rattling off wins against everyone not named Mississippi State. They can probably make a loud run in the SECT if he's 90% healthy. That should be a huge boost to their RPI; therefore giving us two high-quality Ws.

They’re kind of a weird team. They didn’t impress me at all a few weeks ago when we played them, yet they’ve beaten UT and UK and also won in Tuscaloosa.

Hopefully we find a way to steal a road win today. I think it’s really important for our NCAA hopes.

If it gets into a 3 PT shooting contest, I think they have an advantage.***

Of course in a 3 PT shooting contest, our girls team and most high schools have the advantage.***

Hope we score a lot from 10 feet in.

Perimeter defense will be the key.... we can't lose shooters in transition... on offense to use Jimmy Dykes phrase we have to "play downhill" and attack the rim....if we shoot 15 threes and hit 4, we won't fair well.

So far both are shooting well from 3... but we ain’t scored crap from 10 feet in, and we’re down. Go figure.
