Well, that half was interesting, and the Mississippi Rebels made it that way with great play from Murphy Holloway, Terrance Henry, and Jelan Kendrick. But the Wildcats responded to every challenge and ended the half making 3 straight baskets from 3-point range, surrendering only a single free throw, to take an 8-point lead.

We need better play in the second half. Mainly, we need more patience.
