MSU @ Indy

[SpartyNash]

That was the single worst display of closing out a game I have ever seen in my life

 

[johnny2x2x]

We are not improving at the line, it's mental at trhe end of games. Just terrible. Almost over shadowed a pretty great and dominant road performance through 38 minutes.

 

[Spartan23MSU]

This is like a broken record. Jesus Christ. Play with some freaking poise for once.

Exactly!!!! No lead is safe with all these role players

 

[Spartan23MSU]

This team gets ousted in the 2nd round

 

[Spartan23MSU]

I just laugh when people say we could make a quiet run in the tourney, because shooting 60% from the line advances you to the second weekend? Please.

This.

At the 4 minute mark Trice started deflating the ball from all the dribbling and wasting of time. I'm so tired of seeing that especially with so much time on the clock and I know it's Izzo who orders it. Just keep playing the way you have the whole damn game and stop going into prevent with 5 minutes left. Same shit every game.

 

[johnny2x2x]

Bottom line, that was a good road win on a tough floor against a team playing for their tourney life, all without our best player.

We win one game in the BTT and I think we're a 6 or 7 seed.

We go into prevent and "hold on" in football with leads also. Exactly, keep playing the way you have been, use the momentum instead of giving it away. go into prevent when youre up several scores with 1 minute left not 10 minutes.

Just not the dreaded 9

The last few minutes will obscure the good work we did to get up 11 w 4 minutes. We were on the road against a decent team that desperately needed a win and we were without Dawson. Very happy to win a game where we shoot a lot of 3's and only hit 25% of them. Very good rebounding effort minus Dawson as well.

I'll take 12-6 and 3rd place for this team with a limited ceiling. Tournament streak is intact in a transitional year

 

[Spartan23MSU]

Just looked at the box score, Clark and Ellis both a good game. Thats refreshing to see in the absence of Dawson.

When its all said and done the streak is intact and litteraly a few buckets from being in serious jeopardy. Just need Kentucky to not win the NC and ill be ready for next year. In fact, I hope we get a shot at them even though wed probably lose.

Another streak continued, we're the only school to make the quarterfinals of every big ten tourney.

Either OSU or Minny.

Either OSU or Minny.

I'm thinking minny. Osu has looked awful

 

[Spartan23MSU]

I'm thinking minny. Osu has looked awful

They've lost a step, im fine with either but id like to avenge the loss. I cant think of losing to them in anything more than 3-4 times in hoops or football the last 20 years. Dawson better be ready.

 

[MSUMatt28]

I think probably OSU. I think today was a case where right now Wisconsin looks really good. Though Minnesota could win. They're one of those teams where you're not quite sure what you're going to get.

 

[Spartanmack]

Minni has lost 2 straight with a shot at the NCAA on the line. Granted one was at Wisco but the other was Penn St at home. Dangelo Russell could probably beat them on his own at this point.

You guys thought MSU was awful at closing games...anyone watching this FSU Clemson game? Biggest choke job I've ever seen.

I had the 2h over, was stillin question at the 3 min mark but ended up hitting by more than 24 pts. pathetic - fsu nearly blew 14 pt lead in 3 minutes
