We can’t defend the three and we can’t rebound. Missouri is 9-19 from 3-point range and beating us 20-14 on the boards. If this doesn’t change, we aren’t going to win very many more SEC games.

Looked at Mizzou's schedule. Besides taking down #1 Kansas, they also beat Florida in Gainesville. And they are in 3rd place in the SEC. Certainly not a chopped liver team. We have to play as hard or harder against them as we do against a BAMA, UT, Auburn, and KY. This is a top level SEC team we're going against......but yet we're not playing like it.

Three times we’ve been favored over a top 20 team at home and it’s gonna end up being 3 losses.

I’m going to assume we don’t win this game by more than 6.5. This will mean we are 0 for our last 6 against the spread. I have no idea why Vegas keeps favoring us.

Today’s L is gonna turn a lot of remaining games into must wins or else we’re gonna limp into the tournament as an 7-9 seed.

Honestly, though, I’m not sure it really matters. We could draw a 10-year old church league team in the first round and they’d hit 25 threes

I think it's time to accept the fact that this isn't a top 20 team. It's not because " oh it's a road game" or " oh not many people are gonna beat them when they are hot from 3 point land". This team is pretty good but just not as good as some folks thought.

This team has regressed. They beat a ranked Memphis earlier this season but they would lose if they played them today.

Opponent coaches are telling their players that Miss state is Not really guarding the 3 pointer. They are just going thru the motions and throwing a hand up but not really trying to block it. You have to foul 3 pointer shooters in the sternum when they get hot so they remember the pain the next time they shoot it.

We are getting dominated every way possible on our home court. If it was a boxing match, they'd stop it.

We hang our hat on elite defense, yet every SEC we've played barring SC, plays D as good or better than we do.

Yup. And they guard the 3 better and have better shooters. Maybe we'll avoid SEC teams until the Sweet 16
