Dawgs up 38-35 at half

[Coach34]

good start

[chef dixon]

Looks like we are up 38-35 at half. Also looked like we were up by around 10 with a couple minutes left in the half. Unbelievable that ESPN.com can't even provide a gamecast or boxscore.

[K9 Avenger]

got off to a bit of a slow start, recovered to take a 9 point lead and then let the Bulls tighten it up just before the half... pretty entertaining game to this point.

I been watching stats on cbssports

[gravedigger]

state up with 16:18 left in the game. score is 44-41

[thunderclap]

Yahoo sports app is all over it

[chef dixon]

Regardless of how some of our games have gone and how bad our schedule has been, this year is absolutely an improvement over last.

[CadaverDawg]

What's the score? Can someone provide more frequent updates?

[chef dixon]

looks like we are up 55-52 with 10 minutes to go, Sword and Borchert 10 a piece

[Coach34]

State up 3

[gravedigger]

And contrary to some fan's belief, the effort on the court has changed dramatically in just over a year.

What will be the proof in the pudding for Ray will be how well he gets difference makers into the program, and the effort they give when they get here.

I wasn't always the biggest fan of Richard Williams, but he got kids to play roles that were critical. Stansbury never seemed to pull that off. Brandon Vincent was one that comes to mind.

By the way, I'm not a Stansbury basher. He raised our expectations.

[Coach34]

Borchert has 3 fouls though

[Coach34]

not getting much out of Roq Johnson

[gravedigger]

state up 5 now with the ball

[CadaverDawg]

State up 58-52 with 8:36 to go.

[chef dixon]

not getting much out of Roq Johnson

Not sure we can rely on him every night. Our rocks are Sword and Ware. Borchert, Roq, and Fred are x factors it seems. IJ ready is playing well which is big.

[Coach34]

58-52...9 mins

Thanks, buddy. Just frustrating sometimes, ya know?

[CadaverDawg]

Thanks, buddy. Just frustrating sometimes, ya know?

No doubt. I feel the same way

[chef dixon]

Dawgs up 67-62. 1:34 to go, looks like they just turned it over

[It_Could_Happen]

Man this bunch isn't very talented but they are scrappy and it's fun to watch. I can live with not being talented if they fight like this every game.

[Coach34]

turnover- 1:13

[RougeDawg]

How are yall watching it?

[joben3]

not trying to cheat the system, but I paid for hail state.com and haven't been able to use it much. IF you really need and cant pay for it PM me and ill give you the info. All bulldogs should be able to listen to the games if they want to.

[Coach34]

Roq Johnson foul- 67-64

[TheRef]

I think that you should be able to listen for free but pay to watch. That's my personal opinion.

[Coach34]

PG for SF fouls out

[joben3]

I think that you should be able to listen for free but pay to watch. That's my personal opinion.

completely agree, I paid for it after having a few too many one night and wanting to listen to a game... meh, what do you do...

[RougeDawg]

I am listening on Hailstate but no video available.

[Coach34]

made FT Borchert- up 4

[TheRef]

[joben3]

[TheRef]

I switched to French Camp link and it was ahead of Thezone

[joben3]

HAIL STATE!

[TheRef]

MSU wins 71-66. Now 9-2 on the season, one win away from tying the win total from last year. We play at 9:30 CST against either UNLV or UCSC

[BulldogDX55]

Dawgs take it. Wrap this one in Maroon and White.

**** the haters. Where are Raytoraid and his ilk?

[RougeDawg]

Ballgame 71-66 Dawgs..

[CadaverDawg]

Hell yes. VICTORY!

[Coach34]

Dawgs do it again. 9-2 bitches

[Political Hack]

damn. Ricky Ray is coaching his ass off.

[joben3]

Que the flip tweet from talty.

[chef dixon]

We are the round-robin champions of USF and FGC. If you asked me after the TCU game I'd say we'd have went 0-2.

[CJDAWG85]

Really impressed with this team... You can see a big difference from the first game to this one. I had my doubts during the TCU game, but they seem to be finding that chemistry and understanding their roles on the floor.

[MarketingBully01]

Just shut up about the haters. Winning takes care of that. We are all Bulldog fans and all we want is to win again. Great win for MSU. USF is definitely 10x better then TCU. Wish we had that game back because if we played like this against them we would have blown them out. This puts us at least at 10 wins before the SEC season starts and possibly at 17-18 wins for the season. This was a great win for us regardless of how tomorrow goes. Great win for Coach Ray and team!

[Raytoraid83]

Good win for Ray, and if UNLV get a win we should have a shot at that one too. They were one of the top rebounding teams in the country but if you get roscoe smith frustrated, which isn't hard to do, we should have a shot. I'll admit rays done a good job these last two games.

[Coach34]

Ready is getting better each game and is as advertised- a little undersized but a damn baller. Applewhite is an athlete that is giving quality minutes.

We just have to keep working and this bunch can grab 17 wins this year to keep the rebuild moving forward

[Dawg61]

Awesome win tonight!! I have slight wool growing with each game.

[C222]

I'm sorry for your loss last night.

[trob115]

Just think if we had a consistent shooter who could stretch the floor. We'd definitely be a 20+ win team. You have to love the grit this team shows.

FTF is 7-15 from 3 the last 2 games...we really need him to keep it going
