you are the man. Glad you have the listen online link. I was starting to sweat here.
It's not what you've done but what you are doing that matters.
I surely hope we don't take til the 12 minute mark..
..of the second half to show up. That will not get it done against your Cats.

OH, WE'LL BRING IT...
In a way, it may have already been broughten… You just don’t know it yet. Or maybe you do, in which case I’m worried. We have no back up plan beyond broughtening it and then bringing it. I hope it’s enough.

If you bring your "A" game...
…we have a chance.
I’m worried about y’all’s “K” game.

Not impressed with that game. We played well overall, but it wasn’t a good clean game. Fouls hurt us. FG percent hurt us. Wall destroyed us. Even the refs got in on the action with some poor calls (though that didn’t cost us the game).

I really can't be heartbroken
Compared to some other games (coughcoughOlMiss). We gave a really great effort. Of course I’m disappointed with the loss but hopefully there are good things to come
nice job guys on this thread
sorry I couldn’t contribute to it but I used up all the good will I’ve mustered here to even have my computer out watching the game.
Good game fellas
You’ve got a great coach, only good things in the future for you all.
Some say a comet will fall from the sky. Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still. Followed by millions of dumbfounded dips**ts.
I think we showed
yesterday and today what we will become…which is really good. Winning 3 out of 4 at the end should get us an NIT. If Ole Miss get’s in the NCAA, then MSU, Bama and UF should be NIT. I think 4 NCAA and 3 NIT for the conference would be good.
I hate the NCAA more than UT & AU combined. At least with UT & AU you got a fighting chance.
MSU/UF...
…winner should make the dance. Ole Miss has to win today.
Whether or not we hit the NIT, this team finished the season well. Our defense sagged some in the second half today (I felt like the fouls we collected in the first half made our guys tentative on D in the second), but picked up down the stretch. While Kentucky did receive their usual allotment of questionable calls, the bottom line is that we missed too many opportunities near the basket and at the line to win this game. Still, this team fought to the end against one of the best teams in the country, and my hat’s off to them, especially our seniors. Brock hit a couple of big threes, and Torrance was strong as usual. Here’s hoping they get to play at least one more game.
