Day 3

1:59 - Mississippi State manhandles LSU. Sick, way to go Kentucky, could have been you.

1:47 - They haven't been on the last 4 or 8 out yet because they haven't done anything to warrant a bid, Jimmy.

1:43 - I remember when someone wrote an article about Florida getting a 2 seed in January. This was under the assumption that they ran the table in the SEC and the SEC tournament. Great call.

1:37 - Florida State turns it over 15.7 times a game, a rate of 22.5% of their possessions - never a good sign for a team who can look so good. Sounds like a bad match-up could send them home early.

1:36 - Thornton has body control that Meeks needs, Meeks has the quicks that Thornton needs. Thornton will be a solid NBA player - reminds me of Mario Chalmers actually.

1:35 - Garrett Temple is the most underrated defender in this conference.

1:33 - Thoughts on Marcus Thornton's NBA prospects?

1:31 - Mississippi State looking to put this game away, and can't say I'm all that surprised. They've had some bad breaks this year and deserve a few good ones. On that note, think this is the first time ESPN has ever had any SEC tournament games (outside of the next 15 years).

1:18 - Thank you Lunardi for actually putting Auburn up there. How many times do you have to deny Auburn before backtracking hardcore? After the regular season it was "no chance Auburn fans have no hope" now after one win it's looking likely? Come on.

1:15 - As I said, Mississippi State should not have been as bad as they were this year. There's no question about it.

1:13 - UNC is still a very good team without Lawson, but not great. It's clear the difference he makes to this team.

1:12 - In order to win championships you have to have swagger in the same way Toney Douglas does.

1:11 - Oh and USC. Tim Floyd did yet another brilliant coaching job this year with the talent he has.

1:06 - And I'm awake. No real reason to wake up unless you wanted to see Memphis take care of business for the 13346th time in the Conference USA. Who are we rooting for today? The underdogs. Miss. State, Baylor, Maryland. Love to see, now that Kentucky is nowhere near the bubble, teams come out of nowhere and steal bids. Should be a fun day.
