1. The SEC should ask ESPN to move league weekend games to Friday night. At least then they wouldn't have every other power conference in America on at the same time drawing attention to how bad the league is right now.
2. Any road win in conference play is a good one. If you doubt that, look at some of the teams who didn't get one today.
3. Tennessee did a reasonable job of keeping their composure. They failed to do that in the previous two trips to Oxford.
4. The Ole Miss interior players are disgraceful. The Rebs should just play five perimeter guys and take their chances.
5. UT's ballhandling continues to amuse. The Hopson-Tatum abortion of a fastbreak at 46-45 might be the funniest thing I've seen on the court since Wade Houston departed.
6. Brian Williams did exactly what he should against a team completely bereft of an inside presence. Tobias Harris was sound on the glass, too.
7. Cameron Tatum offset an othwerwise awful performance with the two threes that blew the game open. Take what you can get.
8. Chris Warren is this year's Devan Downey. He has no meaningful help.
9. Andy Kennedy should get out while he still can. Ole Miss is headed off the cliff.
10. A win Thursday night is imperative. You can't give away games against the SEC Worst.

Thanks, Hat. What do you make of UConn, Villanova, and Syracuse all losing today? Big East still the toughest conference out there in your mind?

Absolutely. I'm pretty sure the teams beating them are also part of the Big East.

Good win indeed. We were +2 going in and we dominated. Wasn't always pretty, but it was exactly what we needed.

Ole Miss played with with unacceptable effort tonight. I have not watched them play more than 1 or 2 other times besides today, but they have serious problems with hustle. They gave us so many free points and it was not like we were busting our butts out there. The halftime buzzer put back by Brian was a complete breakdown by the Ole Miss Bigs considering he didn't have a defender within 8ft of him. The gliding uncontested layup from Tatum that was not even off a fast break and the failure to ever get back on defense in a timely manner was baffling.

I would say Ole Miss has shipped it in, but I think that is just their identity this season

Thanks for the report. What do you think Tennessee's ceiling this year is?

They can win the SEC regular season. As far as the NCAA Tournament, anything past the second round would be an accomplishment for this group.

Our RPI will probably take a beating today. Florida, Georgia, UCONN, NOVA and College of Charleston all took losses today

I know they should have stopped Tatum on that layup, but both played the dump pass assuming the other would take on Tatum. I kinda understood what happened there

I don't know the circumstances of his recruitment, but he appears to have made a horrible decision choosing Ole Miss.

Which means there was no communication on defense, I consider that lack of effort. Coach AK should eat his team up because that bad switching was going on all night

If Malcolm White and Murphy Holloway hadn't transferred, Ole Miss would be a very different team.

So when did you anticipate them having a 10 minute tea party to determine who covered the ball on a 3-on-2 in the < 3 seconds it took for Tatum to go the full length of the court?
