No doubt. Vandy is the only game through the next 8 we will be favored in. Terrible, awful loss.

Would 2-7 be that much better? Just saying

No but 2-5 would not be killer. Would not be great but not killer. Again it does not matter because now 5 to 8 SEC wins is probably all we can hope for and that will not get us in. I mean today showed me we cannot win on the road in the SEC so I see us maybe winning one road game. MAYBE.

NIT bound baby!!!

We've got 3 losses in a row coming up too.

So disappointing. Days like this make me want to quit Mississippi State. Damn

Haha. State fans believing in Basketball is almost laughable. When Cam Matthew's and DJ Jeffries, two zero offensive threats, have to start and play excess minutes on the court at the same time, it is easy to see lots of losses.

The really bad part is having those 2 in the starting lineup and still getting killed on the glass.

We were 1-7 last year to start sec, right?

Money and the investments in the league have gapped us. Everyone is equal or better in talent and have some offense.

I think that was around the time you said Jans was a failure right?

Yeah. One good shooter on the floor won’t win a lot. Our portal haul for shooters was a failure.
But for us to have a chance, a team like ours can’t lose the rebound battle. That was just awful.

Yep. We deserve the AAC if we don?t make changes to our mindset

Not sure... it was the Florida loss at home. I was wrong though, and almost everyone here is now. Today was game 1... the season isn't lost

There’s more ***** here then at any strip club in the country!

Just messing with you my friend. You are correct. Season is not lost, but we have very little room for error now. Without the Southern loss today is not a big deal. That loss will continue to haunt us.

We've got beat 2 of Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky, and Auburn at home to make up for this loss. We are 2-18 against those schools the last three years. Recent history says 0-4.
