State (-12.5) hosts ark today in MBK

[msstate7]

Has there been a fort and/or DJ update?

Gotta have this game.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

I’m curious on Fort and DJ as well.

We know Taylor is gone, and we know Keyshawn Murphy is back. We just need a Fort and DJ update.

We need this win today. A loss here would really hurt us.

I would laugh my butt off if Missouri beat Ole Miss in Oxford today. Please let it happen somehow.

[Rawdawg]

DJ can play if needed but likely Ole Miss. Haven?t heard on Fort.

[ZedFedder]

Arkansas is a team that scares me. They have been terrible, they struggle on the road, and thus their NET is bad.

Yet, there is a reason they were preseason top 15 and beat Duke early on. The talent is there, I just hope they don?t start to figure it out today.

[HoopsDawg]

I hope we stick with the 8 man rotation that is 4-0 this year.

I have a feeling they may have quit

[ZedFedder]

I have a feeling they may have quit

Agreed. We cannot let them have any hope.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Fort and Jeffries are both out shooting at 11:15. Don’t know if that means they will play.

[civildawg]

I'm probably late to the party but the rumors on Arky basketball and their demise this year are almost unbelievable.

[msstate7]

Fill us in.

[civildawg]

Superstar on the team is having a relationship with another player on team. A transfer comes in and the superstar and him start getting involved so the locker room blows up over a gay love triangle within their team.

this was a false rumor started by Teaxas A$$M is not true but they have imploded!

This wasn't among the rumors I expected to hear haha

[HoopsDawg]

DJ doesn't look healthy. I don't like this decision

[HoopsDawg]

Arkansas may play the worst D in the conference

[PGHBulldogBG]

Is this running on any other channel? This TCU/Kstate game is still airing on ESPNU

[msstate7]

We are obviously better offensively with Hubbard, but we can play lock down D with Davis and the other starters

[msstate7]

Hey espn,, check your graphics... we're 35th in NET

[msstate7]

Let's get Shak back in

[msstate7]

Ark guy literally carried the ball to the goal from the 3-pt line with no call

[parabrave]

Good play by JB but dammit make a FT/

[msstate7]

Yeah, can we get Murphy out the damn game

[CaptainObvious]

This team has spurts of crappy basketball play that is head scratching.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

DJ doesn't look healthy. I don't like this decision

I totally agree. He didn?t look anywhere close to 100%

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Yeah, can we get Murphy out the damn game

Murphy needs to step up the effort.

[msstate7]

Murphy needs to step up the effort.

I know he's gonna be a downgrade defensively, but missing an open 3 and blowing a layup makes him not worth the def downgrade. Step up, Murphy

[msstate7]

This should be our best off lineup

[msstate7]

Shak, stop being so passive... take the damn 3

[msstate7]

Not the prettiest half, but up 5. We'll take care of business in 2nd half

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Jans isn’t very happy and I don’t blame him

[parabrave]

Richard say Toulu needs to go to the Rim and quit trying to finesse the ball/

[parabrave]

Jeez/ Someone needs to take charge on the Offense.

[msstate7]

That's a horrible call to allow the basket. I'll take it though

[msstate7]

Good def

[CaptainObvious]

This looks like two pigs rooting around in the mud trying to find a corncob!

[msstate7]

Hubbard is a freshmen, but damn, Josh you have to make those wide open 3s.

[msstate7]

This looks like two pigs rooting around in the mud trying to find a corncob!

This is our style

[msstate7]

What a pass, Hubbard

[parabrave]

Dam T.

[msstate7]

Thanks for nothing today, tolu

[msstate7]

These refs love fouls

[somebodyshotmypaw]

44-43 with 12:45 left. This game is worrying me.

[LC Dawg]

Tolu plays so dumb sometimes.

[maroonmania]

4 fouls in 7 minutes for Tolu. And everyone in the league seems to make free throws except us

[msstate7]

44-43 with 12:45 left. This game is worrying me.

It should. Tolu is out for a long time. He's given he's absolutely nothing today

[parabrave]

Bell just got lucky, Dan we are playing stupid today.

[CaptainObvious]

And some people call baseball a boring game. This is crappy basketball and that makes it crappy to watch.

[parabrave]

We about to go 3 guards.

[msstate7]

These refs have mastered fouls, but haven't learned travels

[msstate7]

And some people call baseball a boring game. This is crappy basketball and that makes it crappy to watch.

Then don't

[maroonmania]

Our defense is just bad right now.

[parabrave]

Somebody needs to take charge

[msstate7]

I watch a lot of basketball, and one thing that aggravates the hell out of me with Jans is he doesn't end opponent momentum with TOs

[LC Dawg]

Our guards are going to have to step up and win this game for us.

[CaptainObvious]

Then don't

Oh it is like a 10 car pile up. You know it's bad but you have to stop and look! I watch on the chance the Dawgs might eke out a victory. Vegas picking State by 12 when they can't shoot free throws or make layups is amazing.

lol

[msstate7]

We have 3 guys watching the ball off the rim while an ark player goes and get it. Jans better light their ass up

[msstate7]

When do you use tolu?

[maroonmania]

We rebounding lazy. Twice we've allowed an Ark player to run inside to grab an off rebound.

[CaptainObvious]

When do you use tolu?

When the game is tied with 12 seconds to play and you need 2 free throws!

[CaptainObvious]

Hubbard cannot play interior defense. He ole's his man.

[msstate7]

We rebounding lazy. Twice we've allowed an Ark player to run inside to grab an off rebound.

There is no school in the country that handles success less than miss state. Except for a summer in 2021, we just can't handle success

[SailingDawg]

Refs gave Arky a home game with the foul advantage.

[msstate7]

Get tolu in, jans

[msstate7]

Jans is gonna watch this stay within a possession and then put tolu in in time to miss some FT

[CaptainObvious]

Jans is gonna watch this stay within a possession and then put tolu in in time to miss some FT

Yep. It is like when a men's basketball coach takes the State job, the city of Starkville makes them SOFT as tampons!

[msstate7]

Starting 5 in... win this damn game, state

[RockyDog]

Tolu is trash!!!!!!

[maroonmania]

Ark killing us with put back baskets.

[msstate7]

They're without 4 of their best players and gonna beat us in a 2 min game.

[msstate7]

Damn, gutsy, huge shot

[msstate7]

Take out tolu here on defense

[maroonmania]

Gotta make a stop which is something we haven't done lately.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Two stops and hit FTs and we win this game. Get it done defense.

[CaptainObvious]

Take out tolu here on defense

This is where we miss DJ. His ability to block out and rebound.

[msstate7]

Two stops and hit FTs and we win this game. Get it done defense.

I think we can make a stop. Not sure about FTs

[Lord McBuckethead]

Why does Tolu disappear?

[maroonmania]

Take out tolu here on defense

Tolu has looked bad in this 2nd half.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Possession arrow goes to us. First time ever.

[msstate7]

Love the reb, Matthews, but you know you can't shoot FTs, pass immediately

[parabrave]

Make a fing FT/

[Lord McBuckethead]

Holy Shiit. Missed both.

[msstate7]

Cam showed his IQ is lower than his FT %

[somebodyshotmypaw]

We didn’t come to play.

[parabrave]

Deserve to lose.

[RockyDog]

You can?t spell NiT without Dentiat

[maroonmania]

Free throws looking to do us in again today.

[msstate7]

Jans should tell cam and tolu in a spot like that if they get the reb, take a TO immediately. They are liabilities at the end of a game

[parabrave]

Why does Tolu disappear?

They decided to shut down the paint and they did/

[CaptainObvious]

16 of 28 on free throws. We have been saying they are going to decide a game. Well here it is.

[parabrave]

SHAKKKKK

[Leroy Jenkins]

I just don't understand how a player can't shoot 60-70 percent on FTs.

[maroonmania]

Nice FT shooting Moore!

[msstate7]

No cam, tolu, or Bell here

[parabrave]

Smart foul.

[msstate7]

1 FT, cam. If not, foul

[RocketDawg]

We were very fortunate to win that game.

[chef dixon]

Just win baby. We own Arkansas bitch ass in basketball

[maroonmania]

Well we survived. That's about the only positive from today.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

We will escape and that’s what matters. But we dang sure better come to play Wednesday night.

[msstate7]

What a huge 3 by Hubbard to give us the lead

[PGHBulldogBG]

It seemed like we really went through the motions today but stepped it up in the last minute when it mattered. It makes me wonder if we were looking ahead to Ole Miss.

[parabrave]

If JH can ever shoot more than 30% he will be a real badass. Hopefully that comes with more experience.

[msstate7]

You can?t spell NiT without Dentiat
When he makes the NIT, it will be his first time. He has made the ncaa tourney in 4 of his 6 chances. Cry harder, rebel

[LC Dawg]

What a huge 3 by Hubbard to give us the lead

He's always confident even when he's not shooting it well.
Those free throws by Shak were huge too.

[PGHBulldogBG]

I am not a big drinker but this game made me need to have one LOL

[Lord McBuckethead]

2 stops and missing the FTs worked too.

[msstate7]

I am not a big drinker but this game made me need to have one LOL

lol

[somebodyshotmypaw]

I guess I don’t understand this post. For the season he is over 30% on free throws, 2-pointers, and 3-pointers. If you are talking about today’s game only, he is over 30% on free throws and 2-pointers. He was exactly 30% (3 for 10) on 3-pointers.

[msstate7]

He's gonna be a 38-40 guy maybe by next season. I just really hope we open up the check book for him

[Lord McBuckethead]

I sit me or did they screw around with the score at the end. We were up 2, then we get a stop and Shak hits two FTs and somehow we were only up 3? Mathews missed 4-5 down the stretch.

[LC Dawg]

I am not a big drinker but this game made me need to have one LOL

Props to you to be able to be a Mississippi State fan and not be a big drinker.

[Quaoarsking]

Great win. Up to .500 in the conference and probably favored in 4 of our last 6.

[KOdawg1]

Ugly wins are still wins.

Back to .500 with OM coming to town Wednesday night. Win that, and all we'll need is 1 road win (either @LSU, @AU, or @A&M), and 1 home win (vs. UK or USCe) to be safely in.

[parabrave]

He is 6-18. We need him to get over 30%. And he will the more experience he gets. He seems to do better when he hits the quick look/

[LC Dawg]

I know the free throw misses were big but Cam was 6-7 from the field with the miss being a desperation shot with the clock running out. 17 points and 10 boards. He's just got to get the ball out of his hands at the end of games.

[Jacknut]

Not our best game today, but still got the W. I'll take it.

[KOdawg1]

If Cam had a halfway decent jump shot and could make just 70% from the FT line, he'd be a 1st round NBA draft pick.

The dude has it all except for those two things.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

He is 6-18. We need him to get over 30%. And he will the more experience he gets. He seems to do better when he hits the quick look/

6-18 is over 30%. I learned that in elementary school.

[parabrave]

6-18 is over 30%. I learned that in elementary school.

3 for 10 is 30%/

[somebodyshotmypaw]

3 for 10 is 30%/

Correct. Which I said in my previous post.

[msstate7]

This argument is weird...

Hubbard was 3/8 from 2 and 3/10
From 3, so 6/18 overall

[msstate7]

Lsu won at SC today. Glad we didn't get the bad loss today

[somebodyshotmypaw]

This argument is weird...

Hubbard was 3/8 from 2 and 3/10
From 3, so 6/18 overall

Exactly correct.

And he’s over 30% on the season in free throws, 2 pointers, 3 pointers, and overall field goal percentage.

[StarkVegasSteve]

We still cannot shoot FTs

Arky is not as bad as their record indicates

We should have won by double digits

Josh Hubbard is the absolute TRUTH. Ice water in his veins.


These are the things that are true.

[R2Dawg]

Hubbard didn't have his usual ON day but dude delivers when we need it. Just incredible for a freshman. The metrics on him in HS were based on his lack of height but they missed greatly on evaluating his talent and translation to the next level.

One other big shout out - Cam Matthews. Dude is just a baller. Dang I'm gonna miss him and he will be the biggest loss from this years team.

It was great being at the Hump today even though we played ugly much of game. Just win.

[PGHBulldogBG]

Mizzou is giving Ole Miss a good game in Oxford. Ole Miss will probably win by about 8 or so but they won’t move up at all because of it

[msstate7]

Sec refs doing all they can to help... Mizzou +6 in fouls 2nd half

[PGHBulldogBG]

I forgot how bad Mizzou was. Looks like probably a 12 point win once all is said and done
