Srsly, guys? You're doing a preview of the Arky-Pine Bluff baseball team?
It's baseball season officially, so yes, we're doing anything we can to take our minds off the NIT, inane recruiting "updates"(Tobias Singleton likes macrownni n cheez) and a lack of meaningful football.
Quick. Name Arkansas-Pine Bluff's mascot.
See? Maybe those things aren't so important – oops, broke the moratorium.

Shep Smith Watching Underground Basketball Feed on Air | YouTube
Shep Smith is just like the rest of us, fuckin' off at work and whatnot. Except he is brazen enough to do it with millions of people watching. THAT IS DEDICATION, DAMMIT!
What's the Future For Eniel Polynice | Brandt
There has been speculation of the dynamic-scorer-and-perimeter-defender-turned-spastic-baller's future. Namely, rumors of him entering the NBA draft (yes, really) have surfaced. There is also a possibility that he'll transfer, albeit to a lower division in order to avoid sitting out a season per NCAA regulations. If so, I wouldn't be surprised. Polynice went from a true threat to a fish-lookalike liability and, with Nick Williams and Dundrecous Nelson coming in at guard spots, he may not have many opportunities for playing time next season.
The 2010 Bitter Bowl Bracket | Maize 'n' Brew
SBN's Michigan blog and another member of the elite society of blogs whose titles reference alcohol comsumption (Northwestern's Sippin on Purple is another) has taken fan bases who are bitter - and rightfully so - about the performances of their sports franchises as of late. Why are we in it? You know exactly why. Our longstanding tradition of beginning seasons ranked or with solid win streaks, only to fade down the stretch in every sport we care about has earned us an invite to this particular dance. Our first round matchup is against the Arkansas Razorbacks who, despite hiring quarterback Jesus to be their head coach and reruiting the tallest, cannon-armed cro magnan in the state of Arkansas to transfer away from Michigan, still kinda suck balls at football. Other teams invited are Michigan, Washington, Georgia, Indiana, UCLA, amongst others.

Full of Win II: The Cuppies
by The Ghost of Jay Cutler on Mar 15, 2010 4:28 PM EDT

It was in March of 2008 when Ivory Tower sent an email about to his fellow Ole Miss sports geeks and general comrades to gauge interest in starting up our own snarky, off-color Rebel blog. A few days later, Red [REDACTED] Cup was created. That would eventually grow to what you're looking at now which, quite frankly, is well beyond anything we expected.
So, how are we celebrating our second birthday? By giving out meaningless awards, that's how! In a way to re-visit the Best of the Cup series started during our first birthday celebration, we are going to let you nominate and vote on which posts, fanshots, comments, etc. will win Cuppies. Yeah, we're calling them "Cuppies" and there ain't shit you can do about that. Categories in which we are accepting nominations follow.

SEC Tournament Quarterfinals: Tennessee Wins | Rocky Top Talk
It might have been close early, but the Rebels didn't even deserve to be on the same court as the Vols down the stretch as poor defense and perhaps the worst free throw shooting performance of the season doomed the Rebels. You know what that means!
THE NIT! | The Mississippi Press
It's pretty indicative of how down the SEC is when the two teams atop the SEC West cannot go dancing.

Kentucky is a number one seed while Vanderbilt and Tennessee were locks for the tournament weeks ago. But, Florida?! How in the hell did they get in?
Ole Miss Falls to Louisville | The Clarion Ledger
I'm really not devestated over this. Of course, Dan McDonnell kicking hass stings a little bit and it always sucks to drop a home series. But, it's baseball; you can drop a few. Furthermore, it's not as if the top-10 Louisville Cardinals dominated the Rebs. They won their two games by the skin of their teeth which I think is equally as demonstrative of our "rebuilding" as well as our resiliance.

Rebs a 2 seed; to host Troy
I know the NIT doesn't matter, but we're still going to talk about it.
Going, Going, GONE! Louisville takes the series.

This weekend, the Rebels tried to outdo the best squad from the Big East, but the Cardinals proved to be too much. A brief analysis of this weekend's action after the jump.
There's a reason that McDonnell has been here. What's your excuse?

Tennessee 76, Ole Miss 65 - Brief Recap
by Juco All-American on Mar 12, 2010 6:31 PM EST

We lost. It wasn't good.
Obviously, we needed this win to cement our ticket to the NCAA tournament. I guess it's still possible that the Rebs will get an at-large bid, but it's highly unlikely.
For the first half, we implemented the approach of trying to find Zach Graham or Chris Warren open for three, and it worked really well. Warren scored sixteen points but did all his damage in the first half. In the second, it was one turnover after another for the point guard. Warren finished with nine turnovers and looked inept when handling the ball. He was also a liability on defense, allowing Tennessee's guards to score at will.
Murphy Holloway went 0-5 from the charity stripe. That's just totally unacceptable. While I really like what Murphy has done this year, he needs to do a lot of offseason work on his shot, namely the free throw. I hope that he never, ever practices threes, because that's just a waste of time for him.
