Win or lose, scrap and battle for it.
I think we saw that agaisnt Ole Miss, but want to see it on the road against a top team.
Tomorrow is a big test.

That Kentucky game is going to come back to haunt us because we have a tough SEC schedule. We actually played better than them and stats back it up. They just could not
miss.
Look at OM conference schedule, they got hooked up.
I hate these quick Tuesday turnaround games. I expect us to be emotionally flat after beating OM in OT and get run out of the building. Probably didn't help our cause that TN dropped a heartbreaker to Vandy on the road. I expect them to have their hair on fire for this one. SC road game is likely going to be critical.
Afraid you are right.
I?m hoping we battle.
If we want to play with the big boys we have to show up and steal some of these road games
If we can win this game that pushes things to another level
Tall order, but we are capable.
I think completing tall orders is the expectation for this team. Excited for tonightQuote:

Both listed as probable , so should play.
Harris was out most of end of OM game so figured he was banged up.
Tenn -8.5/141
I know Zigler is a good defender and all, HOWEVER
If the legnth is the issue for Hubbard, tonight he faces someone he can definitely confidently shoot over.
Does that make a difference for him tonight?
Yeah- tonight could be a good one for him. Tenn's other 2 guards have to match-up with Harris and RJ- pretty much making Zeigler have to guard HubbQuote:

Our schedule is brutal. The whole month of Feb, specifically.
YES!!!Quote:

Their schedule isn't ours but it's by no means easy. Their next 5:Quote:

It never is. Our basketball fans get really excited early every year. We are about what I expected. Maybe a tournament team.Quote:

We do this in all sports as we want a winner so badly. Not easy being a State fan at all.Quote:

Know what you mean. Son and I went to last year's Spring Football game (57 consecutive years of family having season tickets) for the first time in a few years and I was so excited watching the offense and predicted 7-5 floor and 8-4 ceiling for Lebby's first year. Didn't stop to think that I was also looking at bad defense against that offense and an "On the job training" staff in many positions. Didn't realize I was looking at "Tech and 10, 2.0". Oh, well, won't be long until Spring Training and we have no losses for '25 at this point.*** Hail State!Quote:
