I try not to get too giddy about this team, but holy crap, the potential that we saw today...reminds me of when we were rolling with some of Hoibergs teams.

I think we are just pretty damn good. If we keep it up and stay consistent, we’re probably looking at a 4-6 seed.
rounds out our non-conf in a way that it can’t be criticized at all, especially given the 2-4 missing pieces for most games
Still need to clean up the offensive boards and some of those turnovers, but probably the best game all year
Shooting 66% with 60% from 3 is considered off? Finished with 17. Tough crowd.
But what about in-bounds plays. We'll only go as deep in the tourney as our in-bounds plays let us...
Is that just a commercial flight requirement? If so, let's get the charter flight going for all our games...
Did anyone else notice the odd exchange between Wiggs and THT when Wiggs got subbed out at the end? When Wiggs was walking along the bench after being subbed out, he shook hands with all but THT. THT gave a WTF look, then extended his hand a second time when Wiggs came back around. Wiggs obliged, somewhat reluctantly. Seemed odd.
Nice to see the confidence that all were playing with. Wiggs was shooting much better today (and the charge he was called for at the end was total BS...dude wasn't even touched). THT was on fire!
That's pretty damn funny, actually. He's going to hear it from the whole team for the rest of the season.
Thinking I was picking a 7 to 8 point win in another thread.
Just felt Mississippi is an overachieving team, (they were picked to finish last) and if they had to play a good team that they don't see in conference they would have issues.
Would rather play an overachieving team vs an underachieving one.
Because you know what their best shot is, but there is a chance they will fall back to what they are.
Solid win.
