Selection Sunday

Speaking of Mizzou, it made me feel better that Ole Miss won the SEC tournament after the way Mizzou blew that last game!!! As mentioned by me, Mizzou should have won that game by 10+ points, so this hoping Haith learned something this year about this team and has them ready and lets them play .......but they have let me down soooooooooooo many times this year, it is hard to get too excited about them making a run.......I am not going to fill out a bracket for the first time in decades!!!....but I will enjoy all the games on the tube, even if the Mrs. won't!!!!

I agree. But I guess it's better that Mizzou tends to lose a whole bunch of close games than if they were losing by 10-15 on a regular basis. The close losses are excruciating, but I guess you could also turn that around to say that Missouri has had a chance to win every single game in the last minute except for Louisville, @Ole Miss, and @Florida. I guess as much as it hurts I'd rather lose close ones than get run out of the gym. To me the two most painful games of the year were @Ole Miss and @Florida, because we didn't even have a chance (I didn't really worry during the Louisville game because it was really early and they might be the best team in the country.)

But basically outside of those two games, Mizzou has at least shown a whole lot of heart all season long. You have to admit that they don't give up, even when they're down 10-15 early, and I can definitely respect that. I'm thinking of the road losses to LSU, and the home wins over Florida and LSU, specifically, but there were others. Even if it hasn't resulted in too many close wins in the past, it's got to be worth something at some point, doesn't it? I'm still hopeful.
