OXFORD, Miss. -- Giddy Potts scored 20 points and hit four 3-pointers to lead Middle Tennessee to a 77-62 victory over Mississippi on Wednesday night.?Middle Tennessee (7-1) hit 9 of 16 3-pointers as a team and shot 48 percent (29 of 60) from the floor in a game they dominated from the opening tip.The problem is that we have guys who, for whatever reason, freeze up out there, Ole Miss head coach Andy Kennedy said. Its my job to have an answer for that, and I dont.?Ole Miss (5-2) struggled out of the gate, starting 0-for-7 from the field and turning the ball over 14 times in the first half. Middle Tennessee built a 16-1 lead early and eventually led 48-19 at the break.Ive been in coaching a while, and thats about the best half you could have from the standpoint of hitting shots and making plays, Middle Tennessee head coach Kermit Davis said.?Ole Miss opened the second half on a 10-2 run and chipped away at the MT lead for most of the half, but never led. The Rebels managed only two second-half turnovers and finished 19-of-27 from the free throw line, but in the end could not overcome their deep first-half hole.Weve flirted with a loss like this a couple times already this season, Kennedy said. Its like I told our team: if you get pulled over and the cop doesnt give you a ticket, you get a mile down the road and you speed back up -- you dont learn your lesson. Well, we got our ticket tonight. And were going to be paying for this one for a while.Middle Tennessee made shots when it needed them and finished an efficient 10-of-12 from the free throw line, including several during a late Rebel push.I wouldnt say it was anything we did second half, Davis said. They just started making plays and gaining momentum. I think they kind of maybe ran out of gas there at the end.Potts was 7 of 9 from the field and 4 of 6 from beyond the arc for the Blue Raiders. Reggie Upshaw added 15 points on 6-of-10 shooting and 10 rebounds and JaCorey Williams chipped in 10.?Deandre Burnett led the Rebels with 15 points., while Cullen Neal added 13 points and Breein Tyree 11.?TURNOVER TROUBLESMiddle Tennessee scored 15 points off turnovers, capitalizing on Rebel mistakes.Our points-off-turnovers have been really good the last few games, Davis said. Our 1-3-1 is very active, very long. And we need that to be effective for us.? BIG PICTUREMiddle Tennessee adds a quality road win to its non-conference resume. The Blue Raiders were an NCAA Tournament team last year, upsetting Michigan State in the first round.This was a quality RPI game that no one was really talking about, Davis said. It could be a great win in that sense for us. Andys team definitely has a chance to be an NCAA tournament team.? UP NEXTOle Miss will try to rebound with a home game versus Memphis on Saturday.Middle Tennessee travels to South Alabama on Saturday. Daniel Alfredsson Jersey . The Nashville Predators were glad their captain was still on their side. Weber had a goal and two assists, and Roman Josi scored the shootout winner to lift the Predators to a 4-3 win over the Flyers on Thursday night. Clarke MacArthur Jersey . -- The Bishops Gaiters are showing they belong among the countrys top varsity football teams. http://www.wholesalesenatorsjerseys.com/?tag=cheap-alex-burrows-jersey . Goals from Jerome Boateng, Franck Ribery and Thomas Mueller extended Bayerns unbeaten run to a record 37 matches. "This record is incredible," Bayern coach Pep Guardiola said. Cody Ceci Jersey . The defending champion beat Gael Monfils of France 7-6 (6), 6-3, while second-seeded Andy Murray of Britain dispatched Edouard Roger-Vasselin, also of France, 6-3, 6-3. Making his first appearance since injuring his wrist a month ago, Del Potro had difficulty with his service games in the first set. Erik Karlsson Jersey . Zvonareva, who won the tournament in 2009 and 10, couldnt handle her opponents big groundstrokes in only her third event back after 17 months out with a shoulder injury. Zvonareva made her comeback in January in Shenzhen and played in the Australian Open but lost her first matches at both tournaments. Joe Root is ready to captain England according to Alastair Cook. While Cook maintained that his views on continuing as captain have not changed - he has long said that he will continue on a series by series basis and make a firm decision only after consulting the managing director of the England team, Andrew Strauss - he did hint he was asking himself some questions over his future.I think Joe Root is ready to captain England, Cook said following Englands innings-and-36-run defeat in Mumbai which handed India the series. He is ready because he is a clued-up guy and he has the respect of everyone in the changing room.You never know until you actually experience it and everything that comes with the England captaincy. You are thrown in at the deep end and you kind of sink or swim. Nothing can prepare you for it. He has not got much captaincy experience but that does not mean everything.While it is true that Root, the current vice-captain, has little captaincy experience - he has been captain for just four first-class games - that could equally be used as a reason to elevate him sooner rather than later.England play two Test series in the English summer of 2017 - one against South Africa and one against West Indies - and, if there is any doubt over whether Cook will continue as captain until the Ashes at the end of the year, there is bound to be a temptation to provide Root with the maximum amount of experience possible and make the change before the South Africa series.There is already much required of him, though. He is, arguably, Englands key batsman in all three formats and, in tthe next few weeks, he will become a father for the first time.dddddddddddd With the demands of England schedule, it may be that Cook and Strauss are reluctant to overload him.Either way, Cook has some time to reflect on his position. As he is no longer a member of the England limited-overs teams, he has no international commitments until July after the Chennai Test finishes next week and while he has sounded increasingly jaded with some aspects of life on the road in recent weeks, he retains great pride in the leadership role.The comments I made at start of series have not changed, Cook said. It sticks true to end of this series. I will sit down with Straussy at the end of the year like we have made the pact to do to talk honestly and openly about stuff. My position has not changed and wouldnt have done had we won this game or lost this game.Of course you have questions. Naturally you look at stuff. Clearly it is a hard place to tour, certainly with the balance of our squad in terms of where our strengths lie, the sub-continent is going to be a harder place to tour than somewhere like South Africa.But being captain of England is a huge honour, a huge privilege. You are at the forefront of the team and it comes onto your shoulders when you win or lose. In the heat of the battle you make those decisions. You go to bed at night and you have to live with making good or bad decisions. As a bloke to be asked to lead your country is a huge honour personally.
