OXFORD, Miss. Phil Haynes Seahawks Jersey . -- 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.

LOUIS -- Cardinals cleanup hitter Allen Craig says hes recovered from a foot injury and ready to be put on St. The Melbourne Cup is the race that stops a nation and for an event that has run for over 150 years there are plenty of statistics that you should know before we kick off 2016s Melbourne Cup Day.* First run in 1861 under the banner of the Victorian Turf Club and won by the Etienne de Mestre-trained Archer who beat the favourite Mormon by six lengths. The prize was 1420 pounds and the trophy a gold watch.* Archer came back the following year to beat Mormon, this time by eight lengths, a record margin that still stands (it was equalled in 1968 by Rain Lover).* De Mestre would go on to train three other winners of the Melbourne Cup - Tim Whiffler (1867), Chester (1877) and Calamia (1878).* Trainer Bart Cummings claimed the first of his 12 Melbourne Cups in 1965 with Light Fingers. The following year stablemate Galilee was the only horse to prevent Light Fingers making it back-to-back Cups and in 1967 Red Handed gave Cummings his third straight victory.* Cummings other winners were Think Big (1974, 1975), Gold And Black (1977), Hyperno (1979), Kingston Rule (1990), Lets Elope (1991), Saintly (1996), Rogan Josh (1999) and Viewed (2008).* Other trainers to have multiple Cup wins include: 5 - Lee Freedman: Tawrrific (1989), Subzero (1992), Doriemus (1995), Makybe Diva (2004, 2005); 4 - John Tait: The Barb (1866), Glencoe (1868), The Pearl (1871), The Quack (1872); Richard Bradfield: Patron (1894), The Victory (1902), Night Watch (1918), Backwood (1924); James Scobie: Clean Sweep (1900), King Ingoda (1922), Bitalli (1923), Trivalve (1927); W S Hinkenbothem: Mentor (1888), Carbine (1890), Newhaven (1896), Blue Spec (1905).* In 1972 the race was altered to the metric distance of 3200m, 18.7 metres or 61.5 feet short of two miles.* Kingston Rule holds the metric race record of 3:16.30.* 1985 marked the dawn of a new era for the Cup with prizemoney raised to $1 million. The owners of What A Nuisance received $650,000 and a $23,000 Cup.* This year the race is worth $3.6 million to the winning owners along with a trophy valued at $200,000.* Four-year-olds (43) and five-year-olds (44) have the best record of any age group. Other age groups are three-year-old (23), six-year-old (32), seven-year-old (10) and eight-year-old (2).* The oldest horses to win the race were the eight-year-olds Toryboy (1865) and Catalogue (1938).* The last three-year-old to win was Skipton (1941), who gave champion jockey Billy Cook his first Cup win.* There have been no dead-heats for first in the racce but Topical and Gaine Carrington dead-heated for third in Hall Marks 1933 Cup and Lahar and Zazabelle also dead-heated for third in the 1999 Cup won by Rogan Josh.
