That's a tall task, but doable. Gotta split KSU/Oklahoma, and have no hiccups vs bottom tier of secQuote:

When will our fans realize how much parity there is in men?s basketball? There are tons of good players and good teams and basketball is a fickle game. Anyone can beat anyone on any given night, and that?s what makes it great. Ask Kentucky and Duke this year.Quote:

Sick of wasted talent, under performing and not givva shit from our program. Time for me to stop giving a shit too. **** it.
Just tired of being tired.
How exactly have they earned it? They won 4 games and embarrassed themselves so bad in the Egg Bowl it made news all over the world. This after all the other embarrassing things they have done over the last decade. They have 9 players in the transfer portal and had 6 decommits on Monday. They haven't been to a bowl in 4 years. They evidently are about to hire a guy that USC wouldn't even let on their plane after they fired him on the tarmac after a road game during the season. That program is an unmitigated dumpster fire yet we have people who are scared of them. Poor ole whooped down MSU syndrome is rampant on this board. Scared to death of the worst Ole Miss program in years, it's embarrassing.Quote:

Ole Miss is better in the stands in basketball because they have a coach and not a recruiter. Howland could maybe get us to the sweet 16 with his talent. The sad part is Kermit might take them further with little talent because of his in game coaching
They lost to Oklahoma State by 40 last week.Quote:

The lack of fans at The Hump is a reflection of too many consecutive years of unmet expectations with too many players not living up to expectations, laziness and not giving 2 shits.
If being a 5 seed in the NCAA tournament is not meeting expectations, then the fans expectations are too high.Quote:
