I can't figure Penn State out. Mike Rhoades first year was pretty dang good. They were 9-11 in the league. Baldwin was an all-conference player and the conference DPOY. They replaced last year's cente

Need to get this one.  It's a big swing game.  A win keeps us in a bye for the conference tournament, puts us at .500, plus makes the Michigan home game one to likely lockup a tournament spot.  A win

Juwan may not have played well but Sam having 3 lazy turnovers in 1st 5 minutes combined with all the others is why this game went in sewer.

What in the actual hell was that? That’s just… awful. Just terrible. Against this PSU team!?!? Wow.

We played abysmal defense.  Didn't try attacking the rim as often as we should have.  When we did, we could not get a foul called on them, and would have to make shots through contact, which we couldn't.

 

We aren't probably going to be able to comeback again.  Need to get it within single digits by the end of the game.

For as good as this team has been for most of the season, we are still doing something incredibly WRONG! Just Bizarre!

I think we have a group of players, each with somewhat unique strengths, and very little overlap, so when we get disrupted in an area we don't have a ready patch. If Williams isn't scoring, Essegian isn't perimeter bombing, Morgan isn't posting, Meah isn't defending, etc. we don't have a plan B. Also our ball insecurity is a regular Achilles heel.

I don't think I'll ever stop thinking about how Sam, Rollie and Brice came out and acted as if they had no idea whatsoever that Penn State puts a lot of pressure on the ball

This so, so much. Lazy and unattentive. Getting ball taken/knocked away from behind is terrible.

I truly believe the rest of the first half would've gone much different if they would've just taken care of the ball in the first couple minutes. Penn State's body language did a complete 180 flip when they realized they could take the ball from us.

It's so hard to know when to stop being obviously biased and try to make the box score look defensible...really the most difficult job in sports.

It's frustrating.   Countless inconsistencies.  Gary gets called for a reach.  PSU had countless reaches the whole 1st half.  Rollie goes straight up gets called for a foul.  He goes to the rim, PSU does same thing, no call.  Meah gets all ball, call a foul.  Don't call a foul when PSU does it.  In no universe should we have twice as many fouls (PSU had 2 fouls until the refs decided they needed to make the box score look better)

Right again. Even if get shots off we're more than likely not giving them run outs. Urgency was lacking.

When Brice hit that shot, he was fouled, no call.  Before he traveled,  Andrew was fouled, not called.

 

I don't want to pick on these calls, but honestly, we are getting fouled constantly.

 

I guess an aggressive team gets those breaks.
