OXFORD, Miss. -- Mississippi played pretty well for most of Thursday night, jumping out to a 20-point lead over Murray State by the middle of the second half. The Rebels looked well on their way to a ho-hum blowout non-conference win.Instead, Ole Miss walked away with a 78-73 win that was much more difficult than coach Andy Kennedy would have liked.Im frustrated because I know what I see and I know what were capable of, Kennedy said. I know this team has to live on a razors edge as it relates to focus, toughness and execution and we refuse to live there because its difficult.Deandre Burnett scored 24 points and Terence Davis added 16 points for the Rebels. Sebastian Saiz had 15 points and 14 rebounds for his fifth double-double of the season.Ole Miss (7-3) had a comfortable advantage for most of the game -- leading 62-42 with 10:55 remaining -- but a late Murray State run made things interesting. The Racers rallied to pull within 77-73 with 17.7 seconds remaining.We just relaxed. We cant do that, Saiz said. We play really hard at times. Weve just got to keep it up for 40 minutes.Kennedy was upset that the Rebels missed on so many opportunities to put the game away earlier.We missed eight layups, Kennedy said. Eight layups. For SEC scholarship players. Layups that I can make right now in this tie and these slippery shoes Im wearing.Weve got to get better.Burnett scored a big chunk of his points on free throws, making 14 of 16. Ole Miss shot just 22 of 62 (35.5 percent) from the field.Murray State (5-6) was led by Terrell Miller, who scored 27 points. The 6-foot-8 junior was efficient from everywhere on the court, shooting 8 of 12 from the field, including 4 of 6 from 3-point range. He added 10 rebounds and two assists.Well never, ever celebrate losing, but Im very pleased with the fight and the way we played, Murray State coach Matt McMahon said. Even down 15, 18 points, we were really defending and competing. We just werent able to complete some plays on the offensive end.Ole Miss led 43-31 at halftime, taking the lead for good with 10:32 remaining in the first half on Burnetts 3-pointer that made it 22-19.BIG PICTUREOle Miss: The Rebels were able to bounce back from an 80-75 loss to Virginia Tech on Saturday.

STANFORD, Calif. -- Stanford heads into the season with questions about which player will touch the ball first after the snap.Where it ends up from there is less in question.While Keller Chryst and Ryan Burns battle it out to replace four-year starter Kevin Hogan at quarterback, the Cardinal offense will once again revolve around Heisman Trophy runner-up Christian McCaffrey.After shattering Barry Sanders record for all-purpose yards with 3,864 yards last season, McCaffrey is back for his junior season as a faster, stronger and more knowledgeable player, coach David Shaw said.He also has plenty of other playmakers to help. Dynamic back Bryce Love is expected to get significantly more time alongside McCaffrey than he did as a freshman when he was used mostly as a spot replacement.Michael Rector and Frances Owusu give the Cardinal two talented senior receivers and Dalton Schultz is the latest in a line of dangerous tight ends for the Cardinal.The quarterbacks job is to deal the cards, Shaw said. Dont make it any more complicated than that. How fast can I get the ball out of my hands into somebody elses hands. The guy, or guys, who do that the best will play.Shaw said hes in no hurry to pick a starting quarterback and said hes open to playing both. The two have just 10 career combined passes as Hogan led the team to three Rose Bowls in four seasons as he became the winningest quarterback in school history.Their job is not to compete with the other guy, Shaw said. Their job is to play the best they can play and let us make the decision beyond that. If we play two guys, great. If we play one guy, greatt.dddddddddddd If we play one guy a lot and have a role for the other guy, thats fine too.Here are some other things to look for from Stanford this season:STAY IN SCHOOL: Rectors decision to return for his fifth year and wait for the NFL draft gives the Cardinal offense a big boost with a deep threat on the outside. Rector has averaged 18.3 yards per catch for his career and has become more than just a vertical receiver.Looking at the team we were going to have I saw it could be a special team, Rector said. I wanted to be a part of that.IN THE TRENCHES: The Cardinal lost plenty on both lines this past offseason and return just two starters in Casey Tucker and Johnny Caspers on the offensive side. The defensive line lost stalwarts Aziz Shittu and Brennan Scarlett but gets talented Harrison Phillips back from a serious knee injury to team with returner Solomon Thomas to anchor that group.KEY GAMES: A tough stretch to end September featuring a home game against USC and trips to UCLA and Washington will determine whether the Cardinal will be able to stay in the hunt for the playoff. The schedule also includes tricky road games against Notre Dame and Oregon, as well as a visit to rival California in the Big Game.PREDICTION: 10-2.SEASON OPENER: The two-quarterback system should get a fairly tough test to start the season when Stanford hosts Kansas State. The Wildcats were a bowl team last year and have four defensive players who were selected to the preseason all-Big 12 team.
