We should've redshirted McCowan her first year. But Vic just doesn't like the redshirt.

You're the epitome of a fan being a good loser - good on you. All in all, been very impressed by the MSU fans around here. They take after their WCBB coach -- not their new football coach.

Good job by UK. This loss is probably a good loss (if there is ever a good loss) in that Coach will have plenty of issues to work on in practice.
We have skated through some games that we won but when you play with fire you will eventually get burned. Today we got scorched.
Having said that I believe we will come back and play well at Auburn.

Sometimes Vic looks like he has no clue who should be out there. Game was lost when he put Bibby back out there to start the 3rd quarter. She should have redshirted this year because she just doesn't have it. Also gotta be tough on AEH because she's a shooter and shooters need consistent reps like she was getting last year but this year she has no clue if/when Vic will play her or how long he will play her. This was another one of those games where it looked like Myah Taylor would have blown layups even if she was out there by herself....amazing how inconsistent of a player she is.

Yes, the loss of a senior 1st team All American and one of the better rebounders in the history of the women's college game is greater than the gain of a HS All American. I agree.

Auburn may have gained some confidence today.

I've been surprised Auburn hasn't been a better team this year. Maybe they are pulling it together.
They played MSU very tough a few weeks ago. Confidence shouldn't be a problem.

That’s not bad at all.
Revenge game for Howard, whose senior season was ended by Mississippi State's Jayla Hemingway: Houston Throws Up State Tourney Roadblock Against Bradley, 52-49
Vic had Jayla guarding Rhyne a good bit in the second half.
Oddly enough, Rhyne's former team won the state title over Jayla's senior team the year after she left. I bet that doesn't happen too often.

Very kind of you to say. I've seen and played in enough games in my life to not get too high or low.
This team has honestly exceeded my expectations. We've lost 2 of the 4 best players in program history the past two seasons and another, Morgan William, who was the ultimate symbol of MSU's rise into the upper echelons.
Who could be sure we would stay in that class after those losses? This team gives me reason to believe we will be a contender as long as Vic's storming up and down the sidelines, and way outside the coaching box...

One other thing about this State that is reflective of a young team.
Our FT % is 67%.
That is very poor for a team that aspires to be in the top ten. If you are going to be a top tier team, your FT% should be N of 75%.
That is one of those stats that get overlooked by many fans but FT’s can win you games and missing them can lose you games. Today that was not necessarily the case but overall it can be a good indicator of how good your team is or better yet how consistently good your team is.
But as several of you have alluded, I am very proud of what this team has done so far.
22-4 and 10-2 in the conference is still excellent.

If I’m Vic I’m pretty pleased with her, she showed more hustle and heart in the limited minutes she had compared to some of the other players that were on the floor.
Good for her, maybe she gets some more minutes and confidence with that showing. She needed a confidence booster in the worst way. Danberry needs a wake up call. It has not been a very good two week stretch for her.

Finished with 12 points in 17 minutes. To crack the lineup, she needs to d more than 3pt shots and this game, she had 4 rebounds, 0 TO and some drives and mid range so maybe she can turn it around.
Bibby seems to have fallen off quite a bit from her last year numbers

The proverbial chickens came home to roost this game. Flaws were magnified and KY played well.
I didn’t think we were running the SEC table. We aren’t bad but too streaky and need an alpha. We still had moments where we looked solid so hope those replicate in the coming games.
good job KY. Howard is legit

Not all gloom and doom. I saw two thing I really liked that give me hope for this year’s tournament: Rickea got physical that last quarter and AEH appears to be getting comfortable with her shot. We did not play well, the shots simply were not dropping, we had some bunnies and they just did not go in. I have hope for the SEC and NCAA tournaments, bring it on!
