Southern Mississippi (2/24/2022)

I'm going to start sounding a like a broken record, but I'm continuously amazed how we never waver.  Always come out, never fail to stay focused, and play up to our ability.

There is an old cliche that you can count on (in MBB) losing one or two games you shouldn't.  That doesn't seem likely under Coach McCasland.  At least, not this season.

We already lost them.   Buffalo & Miami.

In what universe was that a foul on Abou?

Uh we lost to Buffalo and UAB at home and both should have been wins…

Both of those teams are in our talent/coaching wheelhouse.  The cliche pertains to games where you are big favorites.

EDIT: This applies to Miami, too @MeanGreenTexan

NT 39 ------- USM 19

 

Halftime

 

Excellent half.

[Andrew]

My favorite part so far is being able to see @emmitt01 there in his Green shirt cheering the guys on while I’m watching on my phone driving through Alabama. #special experience 

[CMJ]

The cliche I remember is you usually play better than you are five games a year and worse than you are five.  So you just need to try and win some of those where you play under your capabilities.

[Pavlovs Eagle]

My better half convinced me not to go on account of the roads (that are dry).

I am ashamed. I promise to do better in the future.

Stalking while not in the building is almost impressive… wait actually it’s creepy

[greenminer]

Halftime:

Mean Green 39
They were better under Sadler 19

Good guys have doubled up the bad guys.

I mean the spread is 20!

[Andrew]

8/10 from Bell and Abou from the free throw line may be the best stat I see from the first half.

Emmitt... i would assume you are pretty familiar with the restraining order process... you might want to get it started...

[golfingomez]

i know it's not what some wanted, but the crowd looks decent tonight

Ousmane tearing it up.  Nice warm up for Saturday.

[TheColonyEagle]

Thing I like about this game….

 

we’re gonna blow them out. But it just feels like Mac is gonna have plenty to chew on them about. just has that feeling. Second half defense hasn’t been nation leading.  
 

Saturday gonna be good. 
 

*edit: man that was nit picky by me but hey, high expectations are awesome.

How was that a block 

[golfingomez]

well, i guess it's a good game to have to play your bench

 

[Tom McKrackin]

Nice dunk from Arron.

I'd probably play the bench a tad more the last ten minutes to prep for Saturday, but I'm enjoying the stress free game.
