Re: Let's go Ole Miss

Yeah BYU IMO shouldnt be in the tourney as there are about 5 teams more worthy but whatever i think they lose tonight. that Haws isn't all that but Collinsworth is a damn good player but that's about it for them IMO. Ole miss is far too athletic for them .

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

I don't think there is any question Ole MIss can win this game, and I even think they can beat Xavier too. The question always comes down to playing with great energy and effort, the way they came out playing at Rupp. I love Ole Miss's guards. I'm kinda hoping the world gets to see the Stefan Moody we've been seeing all season. That kid is an amazing athlete.

Should be a good game. Would be an embarrassment if Ole Miss can't put BY away.

I have Ole Miss beating Xavier as Im sure a lot of you do. If we see the team that took us to OT then I think they could win a game or three

I want the SEC to show well and continue momentum into the next season, it's always more fun when the conference is on the upswing, and it appears to be

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

I'm not sure how the seeding works, so why is an 11 seed Ole miss team in the play in game....shouldn't all the play in games be all the lowest seeded teams.?

I'm just glad they didn't put them in there with Dayton. The Flyers are a fun team to watch despite not having a player over 6ft 6. Flyers caught a huge break getting a home game.

Which SEC teams root for us? I never understand this crap. We had fans on here rooting for Louisville in 2013 as well. Everyone hates us and deserve none of our support.

I expect BYU to win due to them having Collinsworth (six triple doubles this year) and Tyler Haws who is like the 4th leading scorer in the country.

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

Gonna be a fun one to watch.. BYU is about as offensive minded as it gets! love watching them play! Will be a good game. BYU weakness is definitely their low post but have potential to get very hot from 3.

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

The best news is I can't lose. In my bracket pool it doesn't matter who wins the game, no points are awarded.

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

Look I would cut my tounge out before I ever said an endearing word about little brother, but I always cheer for SEC schools in the tourney, what's good for the goose is good for the gander, I think that there are plenty of SEC schools that would rather see us win it than some ACC or Big 10 school, maybe I'm mistaken, I know Alabama football fans will tend to cheer for us, and I think it's more than just them

Re: Let's go Ole Miss


Don't get me wrong, I'm certainly not a BYU fan, but I'm sort of neutral about this game. I do tend to pull for teams in the mountain west. The area, not the conference though it is, at least IMO where they belong. They're the only team in the WCC not on the west coast, except Gonzaga who's at least in a coastal state. BYU used to be in the WAC back when it had teams like Wyoming, CSU, New Mexico, Utah, and Arizona. I do like Ole Miss to win though. Should be an entertaining, fairly high scoring game. From my point of view I look at it like one of them is going to win.

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

I def get that logic, especially given your geography! I think some people have BYU going pretty far in their brackets, I Ovbiously don't

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

I just wish I could watch the game. I really don't understand why the NCAA needs to show some of these games on Tru Tv. It should be on a channel that most people have access to.

I thank Old Miss could go far, I know we was lucky to beat them at Rupp.

Isn't that in a basic cable package? They have to show it on sister networks that they own and can't disrupt better programming for a game of two little guys.

I'm sure you can watch it on cbssports.com

Yea, but I have to upgrade my package in order to get it. Not gonna do that. As for the better programming. Tru TV programming is almost all reality tv so it is basically worthless anyway except for some of the court shows which I guess are ok. I guess you can stream it on the march madness live site so I reckon I will survive. lol

I've watched BYU play a few games...Moody will need to be on his game tonight, those guys can score a lot of points.

Ole miss is going to need to hit the same kind of shots that they hit at Rupp this season

Re: Let's go Ole Miss

I feel the same about Ole Miss that I do about LSU....play to their potential (imagine the opponents are wearing UK jerseys), and either team could win 2-3 games in the tourney. Play to their opponent (see: LSU vs Auburn), both will be exiting early.

As much as I'd like to see them advance, I unfortunately believe we'll see the latter. I have more faith in Ole Miss than LSU b/c I think Kennedy is a decent coach, but not enough to pick them.

Sure beats the crap out of the old way of showcasing games. Up until 2011, we got the worst coverage. Now you can see all games that are going on instead of being stuck with a regional game. One time, IN KENTUCKY, I didn't get the Kentucky/Cincinnati 2nd round game in 2005 but got West Virginia and Northwestern State instead. That is why I absolutely love this method and hope ESPN never gets it or anyone else.

Couldn't help but notice . . . BYU is the most non-diverse team in the tourney. Good to see Mark Pope too.

Moody is killing Ole Piss. Laying bricks and two or three straight turnovers. I would give him some time on the pine or convince him that BYU are wearing UK jerseys
