Fears is doing a pretty good Drew Neitzel impersonation. Keeps dribbling the ball into trouble and throwing it away.

 

[gotime909]

3 turnovers and a horrible shot by jace to start the half. Ugh and a 4th turnover now

 

[gotime909]

Nothing good happens when Kohler puts the ball on the floor.

Jace continues his off day to start the 2nd. Not looking good at all this half.

 

[gotime909]

Our best lineup in the 1st half was fears, tre, Akins, Carr and Cooper. Might need to try that combo again.

Iowa State too - they have 9 losses for crap's sake. If we win the BTT and Auburn wins the SEC, we shouldn't finish behind any other SEC team. The fact that we're currently behind Alabama (and probably Tenn is a joke).

Meanwhile, Spartans off to a slow start for the 2nd half and refs helping Oregon get back in the game.

 

[gotime909]

These away from the ball fouls are crazy

Nice little 6-0 run to settle us down. Carr needs more minutes. We just play better when he's in there.

you got it except Kohler instead of Cooper. back to 7 pt lead

 

[gotime909]

Tre, Akins, Carr, fidler and Kohler is a great defensive lineup

ridiculous. disrupts the flow of the game for contact that has no impact.

 

[gotime909]

Carr has absolutely zero fear lol

 

[Spartanmack]

I'm just hoping they make it out without injuries. Seems like they are locked in as a 2 seed regardless what happens in this tournament. Which is isnane that they won their conference by 3 games and if they win this tourney too not getting a 1 seed seems criminal.

Those NET ratings they use are a complete joke. Gonzaga being ahead of us is laughable

We win the B1G and are behind the 2nd and 5th place Big 12 teams who have 2 and 4 more losses. Also behind the 2nd, 3rd and 4th place SEC teams.

 

[Spartanmack]

Richardson is so good.

 

[gotime909]

5 pt possession for jace lol

 

[gotime909]

Have to be better at the line the rest of the way.

 

[gotime909]

Monster 3 from jace!!

 

[Spartanmack]

also worth mentioning, we're 2nd in quad 1 wins on top of B1G Champs by 3 games - and we're 10th in Net rankings. Makes sense.

We have 12, 2 more than Bama, 3 more than ISU, TENN & TT, 4 more than Florida and EIGHT more than Gonzaga - they have 4, has to be a joke.

Were getting great looks just not falling

Maryland was ahead of us until 3 days ago
