State -4.5/Total 142.5

[Coach34]

I like the Under

[Lord McBuckethead]

I am taking over, but we cover.

[confucius say]

ESPN has 6.5

[Coach34]

70% of bets on us.

[MetEdDawg]

Got to win. It's a Quad 3 loss if we can't get it. Really would like to get a double digit win if possible (for NET ranking) but given recent history on the road I'll happily take just a win.

[PGHBulldogBG]

Florida, Butler, Washington State, Michigan State, Gonzaga and Nevada all won today and these are all bubble teams we are battling spots for. We can’t afford to lose tonight with these other teams winning. Also St Johns is winning @Marquette right now

[msstate7]

Washington st win helps us too though... that win is looking good.

[HoopsDawg]

I'm looking forward to seeing more Murphy tonight.

How long is fort out?

[HoopsDawg]

How long is fort out?

Might be back tonight, but I prefer our 8 man rotation to 9.

[msstate7]

Might be back tonight, but I prefer our 8 man rotation to 9.

I would love for him to push himself into the rotation by hitting perimeter shots

[HoopsDawg]

I would love for him to push himself into the rotation by hitting perimeter shots

He's out tonight, but probably back next Saturday.

[Coach34]

pound the paint

[msstate7]

So careless with the ball

[NCMSTFAN]

Missouri is 0-10 in SEC play but they have a packed house.. thats called fan support

[NCMSTFAN]

What was that Cam? We play so sloppy

[msstate7]

If cam is gonna keep throwing the ball away, take em out

[BuckyIsAB****]

Dear God. Every time I watch it is a shit show I swear

[msstate7]

What was that Cam? We play so sloppy

Just taking on 2 guys at the basket for no reason at all

[msstate7]

Could you imagine an egg bowl play in?

[msstate7]

At these not fouls?

[msstate7]

Is tolu hurt?

[parabrave]

Anyone want to help out Hubb tonight

[msstate7]

Anyone want to help out Hubb tonight

That lineup was incapable of him. Jans runs some lineups out there with zero scoring ability

[msstate7]

I like this 5

[RockyDog]

Bozo?s offense looking great tonight

[Coach34]

The Under was money tonight

[Coach34]

Bozo?s offense looking great tonight

We cant shoot. Not much the coach can do except recruit better shooters

[RocketDawg]

We cant shoot. Not much the coach can do except recruit better shooters

Fortunately, they can't either.

[HoopsDawg]

We cant shoot. Not much the coach can do except recruit better shooters

Murphy got a quick 3 points. Jans said nah.

[msstate7]

Jans 5th in winning % among active coaches. Damn

[BuckyIsAB****]

Thank God mizzou is terrible

[msstate7]

I'm not a fan of jones, but he has to shoot the open 3s

[Coach34]

Murphy got a quick 3 points. Jans said nah.

Murphy has got to understand that defense isnt optional

[BuckyIsAB****]

It?s pretty clear to me Jans is punching above his weight class with this bunch

[msstate7]

Nice job

[Leeshouldveflanked]

We would turn the ball over if we were playing against air

[Coach34]

Thank God mizzou is terrible

They lost by 6 at A&M. Tenn is down 12 there at half

[msstate7]

They lost by 6 at A&M. Tenn is down 12 there at half

There's a portion here that hate basketball and just look for reasons to hate this team

[HoopsDawg]

I'm not a fan of jones, but he has to shoot the open 3s

Yeah, he passed up a wide open 3 and then we turn it over. Teams are already sagging off of Cam. Now they are sagging off of Jones too.

[CaptainObvious]

Missouri is 0-10 in SEC play but they have a packed house.. thats called fan support

Gonna go out in a limb and say they all showed up tonight because this game is their best chance to break the 10 game losing streak. State and road woes seem to draw out the best in our Road opponents!😳😳😳

[HoopsDawg]

Murphy has got to understand that defense isnt optional

He's playing his tail off on D.

[CaptainObvious]

22 points in 16 minutes. 4-9 on free throws. The suckage is real with this bunch !

[msstate7]

22 points in 16 minutes. 4-9 on free throws. The suckage is real with this bunch !

The point of the game is to outscore lthe opponent. State is +8

[RocketDawg]

The big white guy with the hair - Connor Vanover - is 7'5".

Wonder when the first 8-footer will show up.

[Coach34]

22 points in 16 minutes. 4-9 on free throws. The suckage is real with this bunch !

lol- we're up 8 on the road

[msstate7]

The refs go from periods of you can beat the hell out of guys to touch fouls

[R2Dawg]

Cam has not had a good game. We need him to show up in second half. Hubbard has cooled too.

Just win tonight now matter how ugly.

[R2Dawg]

The refs go from periods of you can beat the hell out of guys to touch fouls

Yes officiating has been inconsistent.

[Coach34]

Cam has had a bad 1st half for sure

[CaptainObvious]

lol- we're up 8 on the road

And the Dogs still suck at free throw shooting!

[Lord McBuckethead]

I think we have missed the front end of every single trip to the FT line. We should be up by 12 right now.

[msstate7]

Cam has been horrible this half

[BuckyIsAB****]

They lost by 6 at A&M. Tenn is down 12 there at half

They have played 10 sec games and won none of them. But defend away

[StarkVegasSteve]

Cam has been horrible this half

That is because Mizzou has figured out if you just get in front of him he is either going to run over you for a charge or he will turn the ball over. He has no offensive ability other than just charging down the floor. He is god awful shooting, below average dribbling, and a poor passer. Oh and he may quite possibly be a worse FT shooter than Tolu, which takes skill.

[HoopsDawg]

Jones 0-5. Murphy with 5 points in only 6 minutes- WTH?

[CaptainObvious]

4-11 from Charity Stripe! That is suckage!

[msstate7]

They have played 10 sec games and won none of them. But defend away

Looks like they're about to lose another, but detract away

If he doesnt get a put back or a fast break he will never score a point.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Youre right we look great. I am just a hater. Its not like we got absolutely obliterated in our last road game and before that against our rival bc of missed free throws and turnovers

[Coach34]

They have played 10 sec games and won none of them. But defend away

Nobody is beating them by 25. Can we let the game play out?

[CaptainObvious]

Looks like they're about to lose another, but detract away

I sure hope so. It would be nice to beat a team who hasn't won a conference game, even a home one.

[Coach34]

Youre right we look great. I am just a hater. Its not like we got absolutely obliterated in our last road game and before that against our rival bc of missed free throws and turnovers

The teams we have played on the road are 21-6 at home in conference

[Coach34]

Let's see what happens tonight

[CaptainObvious]

Fingers crossed that after tonight they are 21-12 at home.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Nobody is beating them by 25. Can we let the game play out?

Oh believe me nobody wants them to win this game more than I do

[HoopsDawg]

I sure hope so. It would be nice to beat a team who hasn't won a conference game, even a home one.

Short term, this game is about checking the box for our first road win.

Long term, offensive struggles still a problem

[CaptainObvious]

Mizzou seems to have some talent off the court!😎

[Coach34]

Long term, offensive struggles still a problem

Exactly. A team that cant shoot will not suddenly become one that can.

We are a defensive team that has to ugly the game up. Win ugly. Just win baby- thats what we are about

[BuckyIsAB****]

CLANK

[BuckyIsAB****]

Dear God hahaha

[BeardoMSU]

Shak with the spin, lol

[HoopsDawg]

Murphy playing well on D and rebounding/passing. Ugly shot though. Shak feeling it. Pls stay hot for 2 months Shak.

[CaptainObvious]

Impressive 2nd have start. Good job of scoring before Missouri fouls and sends them to the line . Brilliant strategy. Don't give em a chance to foul you!😳😳

[HoopsDawg]

Our D continues to be suffocating without DJ. Interesting

[msstate7]

Murphy playing well on D and rebounding/passing. Ugly shot though. Shak feeling it. Pls stay hot for 2 months Shak.

We need Shak and Davis to be 33 from here out and Hubbard at 35%

[HoopsDawg]

I can't express how much I love a shorter rotation

[StarkVegasSteve]

Need to keep it up til the under 8 timeout and I think they will roll over and quit.

[msstate7]

+20. This thread is about to thin out

[HoopsDawg]

Jans backed into this combo due to DJ being out and Jones in foul trouble. Will he learn from this.

[msstate7]

Jans loves jones and dj more than his wife, so I doubt it.

[CaptainObvious]

I do love it when they make shots.

[HoopsDawg]

Jans loves jones and dj more than his wife, so I doubt it.


lol. True

[StarkVegasSteve]

Cam Matthews cannot shoot, dribble, pass, or make a FT. But by god he can play defense and dunk.

[Coach34]

We are on pace to give Mizzou their worst home loss.....because we suck

[Commercecomet24]

Dominating this game like we needed too.

[msstate7]

We are on pace to give Mizzou their worst home loss.....because we suck

Bucky found something else to do. He'll be back when we aren't looking good

[Commercecomet24]

We are on pace to give Mizzou their worst home loss.....because we suck

Yep we're awful****

[Commercecomet24]

Bucky found something else to do. He'll be back when we aren't looking good

Lot of folks on here vanish when we're winning. Makes you wonder doesn't it?

[StarkVegasSteve]

Guys I would love to say we are this good, but unfortunately they are this bad and have given up on top of that. Good to get a road win, but let’s not act like all our problems are magically solved. We still have not played great.

[Coach34]

Did I mention I bet the Under????

[HoopsDawg]

What a dominant defensive performance

[StarkVegasSteve]

Did I mention I bet the Under????

Should be safe on that one. We are not going to score but 10-15 more and I am not sure they are going to score again. They have just give up.

[Coach34]

Guys I would love to say we are this good, but unfortunately they are this bad and have given up on top of that. Good to get a road win, but let’s not act like all our problems are magically solved. We still have not played great.

They have not quit. We are doing what I thought we would do. Beat their ass

We are Elite defensively. We are very average offensively and dont shoot it well from long range. We are who we are

[Coach34]

Where's Bucky now?

[msstate7]

Guys I would love to say we are this good, but unfortunately they are this bad and have given up on top of that. Good to get a road win, but let’s not act like all our problems are magically solved. We still have not played great.

We will win games by defense. We've defended.

What exactly do you expect from this team? Line was 6.5.

[HoopsDawg]

The problem is DJ and Fort are coming back and Jans will play them. So we will get worse. Nothing against them, it's just a 10 man rotation kills you on offense. Just ask Coach K or read a John Wooden book if you don't believe me

[StarkVegasSteve]

Sloppy passing, not getting back on defense, standing around on offense….seems like they have given up to me. Doesn’t make the road win any less sweet. We just need to keep doing it to show it is not a fluke.

[CaptainObvious]

It is a good Quad 3 win. Will not hurt State but will not help much.

[HoopsDawg]

We have 15 steals

We are doing about what I expected. They are complete dog s*** in their current state. It is why I said if we struggled with them then we would not have to worry about the NCAAT.

[HoopsDawg]

It is a good Quad 3 win. Will not hurt State but will not help much.

Scary game bc a loss would have done us in.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Scary game bc a loss would have done us in.

If we would have lost to Missouri with 3 of their 4 best players out then we would have deserved to be done.

[msstate7]

It is a good Quad 3 win. Will not hurt State but will not help much.

Maybe. aTm got a 5 spot jump for a 19-pt win there Wednesday

[HoopsDawg]

I think we all understand that

[Coach34]

pay me that under DK- Boom

[CaptainObvious]

Back to back wins holding each opponent to their lowest point total of the season. Defense travelled today.

Nice stat

[LC Dawg]

Disappointing win. Took too long to build a 24 point lead.*****

[NCMSTFAN]

It is a good Quad 3 win. Will not hurt State but will not help much.

Agree, but it is a road win and we needed one on our resume so it helps us some so I'll take it

[PGHBulldogBG]

I think it should still move us up some especially with Rutgers and Wazzu winning. I would think it would put us around 40, although the NET can be very confusing

[NCMSTFAN]

Maybe. aTm got a 5 spot jump for a 19-pt win there Wednesday

Exactly

[Coach34]

hey guys- we beat the phuck out of Mizzou tonight

HailState

[HoopsDawg]

pay me that under DK- Boom

Nice bet. I'm sick I didn't take us straight up.

[parabrave]

Moved us out of the last 4 in to a 10th seed. Need to beat OM and TAM.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Moved us out of the last 4 in to a 10th seed. Need to beat OM and TAM.

We are still in the last 4 in accd. to Lunardi. We need to keep winning and we can push our way into the last 4 byes. If we can handle our business we will be 19-8 heading into our last 4. All 4 could be Q1 opportunities. We need to find a way to go 2-2 in those 4. 1-3 would not be a killer but we would have work to do in the SECT to feel safe. 21-10 or better should have us feeling good no matter what happens in the SECT.

[msstate7]

It is a good Quad 3 win. Will not hurt State but will not help much.

Up 9 spots in net.

[R2Dawg]

We have 15 steals

Cam had 7-8 by himself. He had a bad first half but Cam put his superman outfit on at half. Dude is the backbone of this team - weird to say considering he isn't a big scorer but he usually ends up contributing there too most nights.

This team is putting up now and shutting up the critics just like we need to.

We beat the worst team in the conference let's see how the Jekyll and Hyde dogs do this week before getting too excited. I want to believe but know better!

We are still in the last 4 in accd. to Lunardi. .

Lunardi hasnt updated since Friday
