Goings with 16, averages 8, 1st half, makes sense.

Better than the michigan guy that hadn't scored in B1G play all year that scored like 10 against us. There is a common theme somewhere in there....

Just got home. Debated starting from the beginning on the DVR, but thanks to this thread I just picked it up already in progress, no point in screaming at the screen for horrible things that happened 30 minutes ago.

Roby's hands...lol. good lord.

If you want to really see what’s happening watch how many guys move when mich state on offense. 4 or 5 continual. Then watch nebr. 2 or 3. Which is harder to defend?  Someone moving or someone standing?

Just watch the first 5 minutes and then turn it off.

Great defense....allow the putback.

[tcp]

well, we held them to less than a 20 pt lead. god, this team is almost unwatchable.

Letting a dude who averages 8 a game match his career high in one half is not great.

We are shooting 31%. Which is par for the course under Miles.

I've seen it many times tonight on offense too. We would get the rebound, but instead of using two hands to get the missed bucket, we just try to tip the ball back in and miss more than half the time.

FIFY

I hate the fact that I can't turn it off. I want to. I just can't. As much as I know this thing is O V E R and as tired as I am of watching this team play, my fan card just won't let me completely give up.

We are the patron saints of benchwarmer prayers.

Not a good half for Amir Harris. Forced some bad shots at the rim. This got ugly quick. Roby let goins shoot about 3 wide open 3s. You won't win that way

[Red Don]

These may be a little more readable (besides being a better source - you have to pay for it )

I generally don't call out our own individual players, but man... I don't know much as infuriating as watching Isaiah Roby. No doubt he's a great kid with a ton of natural ability but his complete lack of aggression is just brutal. Not even just at the basket -- lazy passes, halfhearted defense... put Tanner's motor in him and you have an All-American.

I predicted us to lose by 18 and guess what, we are losing by 18.  If you would like to pay me for specific predictions about your future, let me know and I will provide you with a PO box.

I have two issues with your statement:

 

1)  You're splitting hairs and ruining my new business

2)  Tell me 1, 10, 50, things that lead you to believe we can't play Michigan St. even in the first half...well, nevermind on #2

We have had the ability to allow a pedestrian player(s) to look like all-americans against us.

This guy has 13 pts and 3 rebounds since Christmas (hasn't been injured), 11 of those pts and all 3 rebounds against us.
