Gameday. Will be hitting I-22 around 4:00 pm today. Ready for Dr. Chuma to go off. Watched the crossover again from LSU game. More convinced than ever that Dr. Chuma is approp. Just gotta work on leaping ability a little

Just going to go ahead and put this out there and get it out of the way. I think our boogs can win, but at OM has me a bit nervous. If my math is correct (it's usually not so please correct me), we haven't beat OM in Oxford since 2007. I realize this year is different. But, we're on the road with an incredibly high ranking, highest since what? the 98-99 season? Our heads very likely could be in the clouds tonight. Also, I recognize that Bruce is Bruce and is going to continue to do Bruce things. But I'm a bit more old school and feel like he should be antagonizing our boogs and trying to coax them into playing angry, and just down right pissed off. But I keep seeing videos of how relaxed our adorable, sweet little boogs are and how happy go lucky they are in pre-games and what-not. That's just foreign to me.
There, I said it. I feel better now. Time to boog.
Boogs take control in the last 4 minutes.
Boogs by 11.

I just want to go on the record, as a resident of the Great State of Missippi:
FUGG OLD MYTH
FUGG OLD MYTH
Awesome, I appreciate it. I'm in.
In our last meeting against OM, we scored 50 second half points while only going 3-5 from 3 (we were 3-17 in the first half). Brown, Heron, and Murray all had 10 each. Need another performance like that tonight. Less reliance on the 3, more penetration and drawing fouls.
Deandre Burnett playing for them tonight should make things a bit more interesting.

Boogs favored by 4.5. I just hope those rotten scoundrels don't injure any of our hulking beauties as we complete the season sweep.
If we add more penetration this could really work in our advantage. The more we penetrate the more they will become tired and wore out. We will work their asses off and make them feel our penetration from the start and deep into the game.
The deeper we penetrate, the better it will be for us.

I'd imagine OLE MYTH plays us hard with revenge factor in play. Apparently they are pretty good at home. I'll predict a TIGERS win but no cover.

I'm thinking/ hoping OM blew their wad in the first half against us at the Clam. We still have the full court zone trap in our back pocket. OM struggled with that against bama. They don't do anything well statistically. Feeling good about the boogs.
Gang, I clicked on tbb and lol at JGs #REALTALK header for hoops games.
that thread has full blown AIDS... half of it is talking about some dudes wife getting dm’d dick pics after Jay confused Desean Murray’s initials with board dm’s...
I also loved his amazing analysis that Jared and Bryce play more minutes because they need the minutes to stay warm... rather than SG being the only spot on the team without a true backup, thus rotating Davion as the only backup at each spot...
nevermind the fact 3 guys for 2 positions forces a higher distribution of minutes than 2 guys for 1 spot... it’s because they “need to stay warm”
that’s next level EA shit there... you can only get that insight from a guy who grew up following a real basketball school
He believes that being born in Kentucky makes him a basketball expert.
My word that's pitiful. Glad I can't read.
And just ftr gang I followed both Duke and UNC growing up. Not that my credentials are in question or anything.
Offensively, I think we figured out how to attack their zone looks that made us uncomfortable in the first half. Scoring 50 while only hitting 3 and only shooting 5 triples in that second half has to be a confidence booster going into this game. We forced the play on them, and they couldn't stop us or they put us on the FT line. 55% from the floor, 17-23 from the FT line in the second half.
They do get Burnett back, which will help them, and Bruce Stevens stayed in foul trouble, which helped us in the paint. So those are two concerns. But Burnett's return should take some touches away from Tyree, who scored 24 and was really their only bright spot last game.
A lot of money just dripped on the boogs. Jumped from -4 1/2 to -6 pretty quick.

Hard to hold my Boog in while at work. Seems we shoot better for late starts so I'm feelin' Boogs by 13
So should I take Ole Miss -6 if I can get it? I just feel like we’re due a letdown eventually
Gonna go with no on taking OM -6. Seems like a dumb idea. But if you want it, I'll give it to you and +200. Max bet $250. Offer only good to @Ser Sweater Vest
Please do. No idea why you would when you get Ole Miss +6, but to each their own
Depends.....Do you believe in Vegas or the public? If you have faith in Vegas, then you should go with Ole Miss.
the freshman guard from Oak Hill MURDERED them last game... I mean, he was “someone needs to ask Varez Ward if it looks like that dude is shaving points” bad
I’m curious to see if that was an aberration or if our guards just defended him that well, but he kinda cancelled out Tyree’s hot night, so I’m hoping for a lot of hero ball from him tonight to hold them back
Stevens pulled a couple of 3’s out of his ass that he won’t make tonight since he’s only made 6 all season - and 2 were prayers late in the clock against us, so give him more minutes and a couple more paint touches and his point total should still only even out... he’s fouled out 4 other times this year, including against Texas last Saturday, so it’s no guarantee he’s better tonight than he was last time against us
just throw Bryce and Davion on Burnett... get in his ass... punish them on the offensive glass if they stay in zone, put Stevens in as many ball screens as possible when they go man, and control the tempo to speed them up and it won’t even take a great performance to get this W
I should probably stop predicting scores and predict total minutes of boogin required for victory...
we need 4:30 minutes of good Boogin’ tonight... 3:30 of peak Boogin’, but 4:30 of good, solid Boogin’ is all we’ll need
I’m considering Ole Miss +6 because I’m fully expecting us to shoot rather lousy tonight because of how well we played last game.. plus Ole Miss beat bama while they’ve been playing really good ball. I just think it’ll be a tough out tonight for the boogs, and if we win it’ll only be by 3-4.
I'm just glad you are considering Ole Miss +6 now, and not -6, like you were originally considering.
No idea why you wanted to volunteer giving up a 12 point swing (not in your favor)
Gang I’m seeing glimpses of Staph taking his game to another level the last couple. If he keeps hitting 3s, playing d and working the boards it’s gonna be a beautiful thing down the stretch.
Shit! I just realized that’s what I typed. Lord no, I would never take them -6.. my b
I mentioned the rebounding in the LSU game thread, but it’s been “leap off the screen” noticeable the last 2 games... let’s hope it’s a committed change to his game and aggressiveness... he’s not quick enough laterally to be a great wing defender like Bryce - but he’s strong enough and jumps well enough to rebound above his height... I’m hoping Grandpa Desean (I’m not in love with it, but trying it out) has rubbed off and Stapha is learning the crafty ways of undersized rebounding
Okay @DufnerFanBoy Tell me what you think:
UNC @ Clemson - Over 140
Auburn @ Ole Miss - Ole Miss +9
Vandy @ Kentucky - Kentucky -5
Arkansas @ Texas A&M - Arkansas +9
Florida @ UGA - UF -1/2
UNC @ Clemson - Over 140
