I thought this game started at 6:30

Well it’s definitely over now.

I had thought about going to the game with my boys since it’s just a 4 hour drive for us. Glad we didn’t go. And why does Izzy still have his starters in up by 36?

We really don't know how good (or not) this team is. In the same way this game cannot define the season, the directional state universities can't either. We likely won't have a good read on this team until the midpoint of the conference season.

 

The officiating is bad, has always been bad and always will be bad - accept it. The refs did not beat us today. MSU showed up, we did not.

[Silverbacked1]

Okay now how I know how North Florida fan felt.

 

okay too early?

[Huskerpapa]

Yeah, we quit.

Can we move our games (BB and FB) to Sunday nights? I hate starting every weekend with this sick, sad feeling.

[Cazzie22]

I want to see us attack the basket instead of jacking up threes.  Clearly we are not this bad and Sparty is not that good.  But today is all that matters.

[Silverbacked1]

Yeah but at least two days of drinking without going to work, was always easier for me.

[Vinny]

Why is the arena announcer making announcements while Morgan shoots free-throws? It’s a blowout. You’re MSU, you know how to win. Have some GD class.

Or Monday because the general sucks anyway. Let's just mitigate the suck.

If someone misses 2 in a row, the fans get free McDonalds

[Cazzie22]

Get Gary out.  He’s not a one on one player.  I hope this doesn’t ruin our psyche!  It’s damaging mine!

[Huskerpapa]

This is a very disheartening loss.  We simply look overwhelmed. 

[hhcmatt]

We're flirting with history here

 

[Silverbacked1]

The bench is emptying for MSU. 

 

WE NEED TO DO THE SAME.

 

[hal9000]

WE GOT to 50!!!  Sweet baby Jesus, we got to 50.

[hal9000]

Well, it’s 34 degrees in East Lansing, and 62 in Lincoln.  So suck it Sparty.

Griffiths needs a multi-game benching, and if the effort doesn't improve, send him packing.  No effort whatsoever.   And if you think that's too harsh, watch him standing still and not playing ANY defense on the possession in the last minute.   Guy is just completely lost, and appears disinterested as well.  I can handle bad, but not a lack of effort.

[MJW82]

At least my wife making a bunch of Chex mix during the game made the house smell nice for this

He loves having the ball taken away from him more than Dowdell loves running into the first defender he sees

[hskr4life]

You can afford to lose at MSU. You CANT afford to lose LIKE THAT

[hhcmatt]

Fred literally just said he was pissed off in the postgame presser

I’m cool with the fans doing whatever, especially the students. It’s part of college basketball. The adult over the sound system while Morgan has the ball getting ready to shoot shouldn’t happen.
