I never bet on SMU, just Ole Miss to cover and then Memphis, oops

That Memphis game was the lock of the century. I think Vegas won a lot of cash from us.

I don't know this team like you die-hards do. But I do know that this current roster is basically two players in Papa and Nyakundi. And the rest are guys named Herb. I'm going off of the players I saw in the games I went to last year.

And if Dia and Nyakundi aren't having good games simultaneously, this team has no chance.

If I'm wrong, tell me.

BTW -- Can't go to the Southern Miss game. My 10-year-old blossoming post plays at 1. And her game will probably be more interesting way (biased statement, of course).

You aren't wrong. Both Rob & Papa pretty much need to get 20-25 each, and shoot efficiently. It can't be stated strongly enough how bad Haynes has been. Beyond that, you can count on Frog for hustle and a couple of 3s, that's about it. The fact we are this close in league games is really a testament to Mangino. We get great shots this year, great shots. Defensively, we can't defend the arc which is nothing new, back through Dement. Really need length on the perimeter if we're going to zone up. 5'10 kids just can't close out
