    Daniel Gafford is going to be really good. I'm not sure we'll get him for more than a year though if he keeps playing like this

    Petty and Sexton put on a show. It's still Alabama A&M though

    that matchup on Thanksgiving against final four lock BYU on Thanksgiving will be a good test

    I guarantee they won't.

    Bama is solid, but they've got plenty of weaknesses too. That FT shooting is a problem.

    Jaylen Barford was mistakenly identified as a suspect of a shoplifting incident at a Walmart NM in Fayetteville by a Fayetteville police Sgt. Turns out it was his girlfriend and not him that was cited.

    The long track record of Fayetteville PD targeting athletes to get their names in the paper continues.

    I think it'll be the second best conference in the nation this year. Quite a turnaround. UK, FL, A&M, Bama, Arky all looking very good. I expect at least one team to get in the dance out of the group of Auburn, Vandy, Tennessee, or maybe even MSU too. Auburn is the biggest wildcard with those suspensions and their usual inconsistency. If they get those guys back, hate to admit it but they could be pretty good if they play even a hair of defense (still might not).

    Best news is there doesn't seem to be any god awful teams. LSU is kinda bad but I don't think we will have those past Mizzou, LSU, Auburn dregs that are RPI killers this year

    Wiley is the big piece for us...an actual post presence on offense will keep us from getting into as many 3 point contests.

    Purifoy doesn't really play defense anyways so he's just another scorer (albeit one of our best).

    Purifoy is probably the most inconsistent player we have too though, he can go from best player on the court to a nonfactor from game to game.

    Mizzou gets past a sneaky Emporia State team, 67-62. If we would've hit all the shots we missed, the score would've been 157-62.

    Letting a 20+ point lead dwindle down to single digits in the 2nd half against subpar competition in fucking Rupp is struggling. Y'all had a 6 min scoreless streak, yeah?

    Spin it how you wish though, dumbass
