Well it worked yesterday. I take no responsibility for that second half.

We get Bilas again, ughh.
Can't have foul trouble today.
Brazile with a wide open look and all the time in the world... barely hit the rim.
Cal's pregame speech must have been "This game doesn't matter, so don't pretend you care."
As expected. This one is not going to be pretty.
Lose and go home amend get some rest
good aidoo
and again. keep it rolling with the switches and mismatches.
boom muthafucka
That's one of the weirder 3s I've ever seen by Davis. Way too long, but dies on the back of the rim and rolls back into the basket.
get the lead. commence bed shitting.

how it started...
they are making us chase them all over the court and kicking our ass
how many consecutive turnovers is that?
Our defense is horrible. I don't think it's improved all year.
we are tired. and retarded.
Not getting any calls.
If Z can't shoot or grab a basketball he's less than worthless.
I would think it was his injury but he's always played like his fingers are fused together.
It would be nice to get this to 5 or 6 by half.

he has the ball skills of Connor Vanover. He can barely catch the goddamn ball.
Quote from: Hognrock on Mar 13, 2025, 12:45 PMIt would be nice to get this to 5 or 6 by half.
Try 15 or 16.
Nice run
Keep it under 10 at the half and who knows.
Brazile took 3 steps on that dunk but hey it's a modern game.
If we can get a stop here and go in down 8....Thats damn near best case scenario at this point
Quote from: Show-Me Hog on Mar 13, 2025, 12:51 PMBrazile took 3 steps on that dunk but hey it's a modern game.
If they start calling that now games would take 4 hours to complete
I'm behind on the game. I've never seen a team miss as many layups as we do.
how is that not a walk?
om pushing off on offense
How did that Ole Miss guy go from the FT line to the rim without dribbling
Refs letting them play, unless it's some bullshit backing in call
What a fucking flop by that white bitch.
Flop.
win or lose, this team has some fuckign fight in them.
insane possessions
Jesus talk about letting them play. Both teams fouled about four times in that sequence.
Even when we do good things.... it's still not easy.
Is Brazille or whatever actually playing like he was supposed to play the whole time?
aidoo says fuck yo bowl cuts
This team...
trevon says fuck yo red solo cups
what the fuck? jump ball you fucking blind zebra
guy was walking, had it tied up for a few seconds but no it's a foul
Sad thing is that ref lives in Arkansas
billy says fuck yo polos and khakis
That's been a block all 2024-25. I hate it but it is.
holy hell what a pass wagner
We need some minutes from Z.
But the fight in this team is undeniable.
ole miss shooting like arkansas
knox says fuck yo grove
richmond says fuck yo party
This fucking team man. Never quit (unless its against SC).
Team is tough
Did I hear Bilas say we''re on a 30-11 run? Plus we're at the line and a possible technical? Jesus. This team is bonkers
The last 5 minutes reminds me of Nolan's teams.
Refs fucked us. Fuck them
this sec tourney aidoo is who we've been missing all season. back it down and make them your bitch.
Needless to say, I think we have more than proven we deserve to be in the tourney.
we refuse to pull away
Aidoo on again today.
dia pushing off with the forearm
Quote from: BASS on Mar 13, 2025, 01:48 PMwe refuse to pull away
I'm guessing this is sarcam? Us pull away? Surely you jest.
Guess if you're on the Ole Miss side you can give forearm shivers on drives.
billy says how you like me now?
we're going to finish with 3 guys on the court
Lucky ass shit
god the fucking turnovers
Shit shit shit
That's ballgame.
Welp. Big Z is back in. Let's see if figured out how to play defense, catch, shoot, run........
Well shit.
Well, at least it isn't the ass kicking I was expecting.
we need to hit a lot of free throws in the next 5:05
Knox has to make those
I know we want to win, but a loss gets us much needed rest and won't hurt our seed in the tournament.
No way Aidoo actually fouled him
Quote from: TC on Mar 13, 2025, 02:00 PMI know we want to win, but a loss gets us much needed rest and won't hurt our seed in the tournament.

BS!
Guy falls down and we get the foul
That was a bullshit call. Holy shit that was bad
Quote from: buff2.0 on Mar 13, 2025, 02:01 PMBut fuck Ole Miss
This too..and these fucking refs. Fuck them too
Need some stops
I hate it when refs change the way they call the game. Let them play.
missed free throws are costing us
No one was within 3 feet of Billy. Doesn't make up for the Aidoo non-foul though.
Oh well let's get some rest and see what we can do next weekend.
brazile has to stop jumping at every head fake

Not so fast...
he walked
Literally the only way to win now is to suddenly get unconscious from 3.
Let's give it a shot anyway.
Missed walk
Quote from: Barton Fink on Mar 13, 2025, 02:07 PMMissed walk
Definitely.
Can Bilas please stop talking about geometric cuts to the basket?
We are down to 5 playable guys
We have to start making those and 1's.
Listening to these on the radio makes for a whole different kind of stress
fuck you midget sideshow bob

Z with a finger (not playing much) and Aidoo fouled out.
Radio guy just said "Cal sticks with the same five"
Smartass
he walked again
How the fuck are we even in this game much less winning?
Quote from: BASS on Mar 13, 2025, 02:16 PMhe walked again
There were several missed in the USCE game. Awful

We may need an ER tent if this goes to OT.
whoa nelly! fuck you ole miss
Hell yeah Davis!!
Ha Ha. Stole it from Marshall Mathers....
make free throws
make free throws
make free throws
Points are a must here, can't give them the last shot to win
Wish I could throw up a quick poll right now.
Do we really want to win this and face Auburn tomorrow as the Walking Wounded?
Need to run the ball, get in the paint and make our charity points

do not pull a webber
what the fuck with the foul?
Weak ass call
BS again!
Dammit dont foul!!!!!
And one...
Guess we get the chance to win it
make free throws brazile
lol
I'd rather be tied with the last shot rather than have them foul with us up 1 and they get the last shot.
Make these.
Fuck Bilas.
Shit
That entire sequence was clown shoes for everyone on the court
Well shit
Unreal
What a crock
Sigh Brazile.
Doesn't really matter, of course whoever got the last shot was going to win. Johnelle went too early.
Probably for the best.
davis drove with way too much time on the clock. and why not put the ball in wagner's hands?
shoot better than 65% from the ft line and we win.
oh well, get some rest and see where the committee sends us.
Oh well
Brazile. Dude.
Good grief.
Choke zzil.
It seems we excel on recruiting morons
This will leave a bad taste in the team's mouth.
Good.
Quote from: Son of Spam on Mar 13, 2025, 02:25 PMFuck Bilas.
I'm surprised he didn't use the n-word on us.
Didn't matter if we won or lost. An extra day of rest is better than moving on if we're being honest.
We are solely in the tourney We should be motivated.
Quote from: obijuana on Mar 13, 2025, 02:29 PMThis will leave a bad taste in the team's mouth.
Good.
Agree. We should be motivated next week.
Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory since forever
Hilarious way to lose. Oh well, more rest.
Beard's team definitely looks better coached. Better ball movement and more discipline.
Our players are probably making twice as much as theirs.
Just don't foul. Let them score the two, get the inbounds up one with 20 seconds to go, then the odds are with us.
That said...
Quote from: Barton Fink on Mar 13, 2025, 02:31 PMAn extra day of rest is better than moving on if we're being honest.
Nelly went to soon though. He has to hold it til under 10.

lol at those shitting on brazile.
15 points
50% from 3
11 boards
2 assists
1 steal.
you want to shit on someone, how about z who hasn't pissed a drop lately and got all of 10 seconds in the 2nd half because he blew a defensive assignment so bad and got yanked.

Those back-to-back games are real hard on a bigger feller so you know you had to been completely exhausted
better to lose at the last second today than to get run out of the gym by auburn tomorrow.
at least that's my spin on it.

We would not have won yesterday without him either.
Davis is not a good ball handler. That ball should've been in DJs or Richmonds hands.
Oh well, I think the extra rest helps us. We needs fresh legs
I would have liked to win this one, but I agree with the post above. Even more undermanned than normal and we fought like hell in this one.
I know it's all copium, but I'm not sure we could put the same spin on a blow out loss tomorrow, and unless we went all NBA jam on them (which is possible), we weren't ever going to win tomorrow.

he has an uncanny knack for a guard, supposedly a very good one, to drive to the paint and get stuck. either turn it over or try to pass it around three guys.
i'm sure cal had him have the ball because of his being the best free throw shooter on the tam, but his last shot should have been just that, the last shot of regulation.
We basically played most the game with 6 players, then the last 5 with 5 players.How we almost won is a miracle in itself.
After been given all these early start games I fully expect that we'll be sent to Alaska to play in a mid-night tip off
I'm half kidding of course.
Yes, we could have won it. But it was a remarkably gutsy performance by a really shorthanded team. Someone floated on X that we would be a 9 seed if we won, and a 10 if we lost.
I'm just as glad we lost. Those 8-9 seeds are brutal.

I'm just as glad we lost. Those 8-9 seeds are brutal.
the way the committee has worked in recent years conference tournaments have little or no impact on seeding. That being said I have to think losing to South Carolina might have hurt us if it come down to who was gonna get left out. As it is we got a W in one and looked very competitive in the 2nd so I think we're a solid IN at this point.
This is a weird year where the SEC is supposedly going to get a lot of teams in so that might impact how the down range P5 At-large teams are seeded also our league has been known to lay eggs in the tournament but we've (as a conf) looked strong to very strong all season so there's that
Doneone said Lunardi had us at 9 this morning. Hope not.
Solid effort. This game was the one I least cared about.
Now we have another day to rest and the real season starts next week.
Quote from: Barton Fink on Mar 13, 2025, 03:31 PMDoneone said Lunardi had us at 9 this morning. Hope not.
he did and jerry palm also.
Hopefully we get off the 9 seed line. 10 would be better but 11 would be optimal.

I posted that in another thread. He had us opening with Marquette and then Auburn. No thanks.
It sucks to lose the way we did but if it knocked us back to a 10 then I'll happily take it. An 11 would be even better.

Yep. Getting hammered by the Tigers would do nothing for the teams overall morale. Being down so much early, coming back, only to lose at the end should motivate them to finish the game when they have a chance.
