South Carolina game thread

[msstate7]

Like this start. We're a couple Q missed layups from really putting it on South Carolina early

[RocketDawg]

Team looks great today. Hope they can keep it up.

[solodawg]

Love the way we are playing D right now.

[Dawg61]

STOP SHOOTING 3's Holman!!!

[rcsteph1]

SC getting some calls. I like our aggressiveness on both sides of the ball

[Tbonewannabe]

I hope we keep playing with this energy on defense. Great ball movement also.

[msstate7]

If Malik would get his stroke back, we might could make a run at .500

[Dawg61]

Good first half but we really should be up more than 11

[msstate7]

Really unselfish half of basketball all except ready being determined to take last shot of half. Need to rebound defensively and we should be fine

[maroonmania]

Did Dontae Jones make it back in town for the reunion??

[smootness]

Ready's been playing really well of late, Weatherspoon has become arguably our best player, and I really like what Holman brings. He just needs to get stronger.

I really like our potential next year whether Newman comes back or not. We'll have growing pains with all the newcomers, but we have a chance to be playing really well by the end of the year.

[JoseBrown]

Did Dontae Jones make it back in town for the reunion??

I was wondering if Marcus Bullard was available to make it back myself.

[msstate7]

Please rebound defensively

[maroonmania]

Was that Dontae that they were showing walking up the steps?

[rcsteph1]

was it bullard? I just caught the tail end of it

[msstate7]

Keep your cool, ware

[RougeDawg]

Definitely letting them play now.

[maroonmania]

was it bullard? I just caught the tail end of it

It wasn't Bullard, pretty sure it was Jones with the slick bald head.

[Dawg61]

Isn't Bullard in jail on the coast for triple aggravated assault or some crazy shit like that?

[smootness]

A picture of the team was posted on twitter. I don't see Jones or Bullard in it.

[msstate7]

Come on Q

[Dawg61]

Ready with another steal! He has really become good at that

[msstate7]

That was a pretty big travel by usc on that basket

[msstate7]

Fred Thomas is having a hell of a game

[I seen it dawg]

They have finally bought in

[Dawg61]

Fred Thomas is having a hell of a game

He even made a transition layup while still falling to the ground

Bullard I wouldn't expect but you would think Dontae would come back if able. That final four run was the highlight of his athletic career for sure. Has he EVER been back to Starkville since being at the Meadowlands? I'm pretty positive he never came back to school.

[Dawg61]

Terrific unselfish passing!!

[maroonmania]

Man, we are playing with great effort but our shooting the last 10 minutes has been terrible.

Did we get them get outta jail for a day passes cause I'm pretty sure both of them are locked up right now

[maroonmania]

Can't hit a free throw either.

[maroonmania]

WEll that might explain it. Didn't realize Jones had legal issues as well.

[msstate7]

Are we trying to blow this?

[rcsteph1]

zebras gonna get SC back in the game.

[maroonmania]

That was a bogus call on Ready there.

[Irondawg]

Coach Williams said in the radio Dontae made it last night and said he was coming to the game

[maroonmania]

Well, we trying to keep it close with all the missed free throws.

[chef dixon]

They have finally bought in

Safe to say Rick Ray was clueless for 3 years. Howland has found efficient roles for everyone by now.

[rcsteph1]

Gotta make free throws

[rcsteph1]

Cant buy 2 free throws

[starkvegasdawg]

Maybe need to practice FT's this week.

[maroonmania]

We won this one on defense for sure. Offense and free throw shooting left us at the 10 min mark.

[RougeDawg]

We look tired trying to close this out.

[rcsteph1]

I think a lot of the offensive problems are because we are milking the clock and got out of rhythm.

[msstate7]

We look tired trying to close this out.

Think that's it.

[maroonmania]

Would be nice to get to the 11th seed to avoid playing the extra game.

[rcsteph1]

We look tired trying to close this out.


I think our tempo on defense wore us down. But a heck of an effort by this team today

[msstate7]

Why are they fouling?

[rcsteph1]

Hell of a Win Boys! Dominated from the start and fought through it!

[RougeDawg]

We need Bama to win and TN lose to move us into 1 spot.

[dawgday166]

Good game for the guys.

[Johnson85]

Jones must have had a very quiet arrest. Other than a gun incident early in his career (maybe while he was still at the celtics) don't ever remember him getting in trouble.

[maroonmania]

Would be nice to get to the 11th seed to avoid playing the extra game. Man, I sure wish we could start this season over.

[Dawg61]

Great win!!

[CadaverDawg]

What we've seen in the last two weeks is the beginning of something special under Howland

[Dawg61]

Jones must have had a very quiet arrest. Other than a gun incident early in his career (maybe while he was still at the celtics) don't ever remember him getting in trouble.

Glad I'm wrong about Jones

[RocketDawg]

Good to get that last FG and win by 10. They looked really good ... gotta be the most improved team in the SEC over the season.

[Bucky Dog]

SC is the worst 23 win team in the country! Malik was non existent again. Hope he has a good off season.
