Message: [QUOTE="ConwayGmck, post: 3450277, member: 10442"] This is something that obviously Schaefer needs to address and get his entire staff working on to improve. Mississippi State lost a very strong position regarding regular-season title opportunities - losing 2 of their last 3 games took away any chances they had of sharing the title - but there's still a ton left on the table for them to accomplish. Coach Schaefer should tell his team about South Carolina and Tennessee during the 2014-15 season: They ended up sharing the SEC regular-season title, just the 2nd time in SEC history the title was not won out-right. Both USC and UT went 15-1 on the season, and it came down to the very final regular-season game for South Carolina, against then-13th ranked Kentucky in Lexington (coincidentally enough, where USC played today). USC came in #2 in the nation at 27-1, 15-0 and lost 67-56. Tennessee had lost only to USC earlier, but won it's final game against Vanderbilt decisively and won a share of their 18th regular-season title. Staying in the hunt and continuing to play strong can often get rewarded in the end. Miss. State still has the chance of a great season ahead of them, as long as they stay strong..... [/QUOTE]
