Did You Notice?

• Graduate student forward Erynn Barnum surpassed a career-high rebound total for the second-straight game, with 15 points and 15 rebounds in 32 minutes as women's basketball blew out Mississippi Valley State. 

• The 55 points in the first half tied the most points in any half and the fourth overall 50-point half under Sam Purcell.

• The 64-point win marked the largest margin of victory under Purcell and the largest since the Bulldogs defeated Murray State, 124-43, on Nov. 15, 2019. The Bulldogs received 32 points from its bench and all eight available players scored in the effort.

Daily Dose of Mike Leach:

“Somebody said that in passing, you know, 'I hate cats.' You know, somebody really hates cats, and I've never figured that one out. And credit to cats, the ability to generate that much animosity, you know?"
