6pm, no?

[Duckdog]

Damn son its only 1:30! Calm it on down

[HailStateSZN19]

Feed Perry & him stay out of foul trouble. Nick Spoon harass Tyree on defense like crazy & make Tyree defend/run off rub screens all night long while he's on defense and wear him down. Keep any of the supporting cast behind Tyree from having a solid game like Hinson did in the Hump last year (was it him or someone else that killed us at home last year?). DJ or Tyson need to have a solid game offensively. I'm not worried much about this game for whatever reason. I think Perry has a monster game and we win by 10+.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Perry needs to have 20-25 touches in the paint tonight. Ole Miss doesn't have much size and they have no depth at those positions. Perry could have a massive night. Nick and Stewart are going to have to contain Tyree and Shuler. So as long as they don't get someone like Hinson get nuclear and not be able to miss we should win this one. We're the better team.

[ScoobaDawg]

Damn son its only 1:30! Calm it on down

This is calm for me... Shit this might be the most fired up I've been for a game since leaving state.



6pm, no?

Yes. edited to add the info

Yep Hinson went off..5 for 11 on 3's , 8 of 16 fg's overall. 26 points.

[MaroonFlounder]

Kermit runs a lot of 2-3 zone? Can we make it rain from the perimeter? Who goes off?

[StarkVegasSteve]

Kermit runs a lot of 2-3 zone? Can we make it rain from the perimeter? Who goes off?

They'll try to run that 1-3-1 halfcourt trap of theirs a lot tonight. It gave us some problems in the first half last year.

[OLJWales]

Since they don't have anyone physical enough to deal with Perry , are they good enough to force us into beating them with perimeter shots playing zone all night? Is their zone gonna be able to limit Perry's touches in the paint?

ELLLL NAHHHH

[RocketDawg]

81-63 MSU.

[3rdGen]

HERE WE GO!!!!!! 17 those shitbirds in their own house!!!!!!

[BuckyIsAB****]

From all accounts this kid is a total beast and has been the biggest surprise of workouts and throwing sessions. NFL size and speed for sure. Not sure how he left FSU or why but Im glad he did. I watched MGCCC most of this year and he was legit but I didnt think he was near athletic enough to play without a hand in the dirt. He has been at OLB for us and has been a beast from what some of the players are saying

[HoopsDawg]

What is this camera angle?!

[MoreCowbell]

Really like our ball movement so far. DJ Stewart is going to be special

[msstate7]

Stewart is gonna be a stud... he's getting close now

[LC Dawg]

I love how we are attacking.

[msstate7]

Alright dawgs, great start... now tyree is out, so let's hit him em hard here

[3rdGen]

Attacking and passing like we throwing darts.

[AmiteDog]

Kermit the Fraud needs a T. The puppies are kicking his whiny bitch ass

[msstate7]

Kermit the Fraud needs a T. The puppies are kicking his whiny bitch ass

He's getting close.

[HoopsDawg]

Kermit has lost his mind tonight.

[ScoobaDawg]

Loving it. Keep it going!!!

[msstate7]

Kermit has lost his mind tonight.

Losing composure fo sho

[Maroonthirteen]

I'm really disappointed...... that I'm not there. Hail State.

[starkvegasdawg]

Kermit has lost his mind tonight.

It's not easy being green...with envy.

[WildDawg]

It?s too far away, like from a blimp. I?ve asked ESPN to zoom in closer.

[RocketDawg]

I expected a full house. Lots of empty seats on the sides. Is the rain to blame?

[RocketDawg]

Can't make a basket now.

[HoopsDawg]

-9 since Carter came in.

[bobtail bob]

Good dawgs, bad dawgs syndrome

[Percho]

Is there something wrong in throwing the ball to the corner on the trap?

[HoopsDawg]

Good dawgs, bad dawgs syndrome

Something about our 1st half rotations are not working.

[RocketDawg]

Good dawgs, bad dawgs syndrome

Just wait til the second half ....

[msstate7]

-9 since Carter came in.

While true, we also had about 3 TOs in there, and carter wasn't on tyree. I'm all for limiting carter's mins though

[starkvegasdawg]

Our normal first half team is back.

[LC Dawg]

We quit attacking and got lazy against their zone. We've got to keep moving against the zone.

[Dawg2003]

Ben Howland continues to get punked by Ole Miss.

[RocketDawg]

Looking better, at least for the time being.

[HoopsDawg]

Come on Tyson. Play smart!!

[bobtail bob]

Good dawgs are back

[msstate7]

Was that a basketball play on the foul?

[DDawg]

It truly does suck.

[HoopsDawg]

Terrible long 2 by Tyson off the dribble with plenty of time on the shot clock. Come on Howland, you can't accept that.

[HoopsDawg]

starting 5 playing very well so far.

8-14 with only 3 turnovers by the starting 5.

[R2Dawg]

Yep great Pavillion improvement.

[DDawg]

I truly believe DJ Stewart going to end up being one of the better players we have this decade. Think he?s further along than Q was at this point and will far surpass him by the end of his time here.

[SailingDawg]

Announcers say we're bigger, more athletic, better...

Outrebounding them 19-8

[msstate7]

Terrible long 2 by Tyson off the dribble with plenty of time on the shot clock. Come on Howland, you can't accept that.

What was the +- with carter on court that run? You can't post that only when it's bad haha

[HoopsDawg]

crucial minutes here with Ado on the bench.

[msstate7]

Perry can go from 1st team AA to WTF at times

[HoopsDawg]

What was the +- with carter on court that run? You can't post that only when it's bad haha

The key +/- tonight is Ado. Not happy with some of the plays Carter continues to make.

[msstate7]

These last 5 mins are huge

[R2Dawg]

Perry can go from 1st team AA to WTF at times

Yes he can

[R2Dawg]

Woodard can stroke it. He is shooting 47% from 3 on year.

[msstate7]

The key +/- tonight is Ado. Not happy with some of the plays Carter continues to make.

I agree with that. I wish carter would drive more when he's in... he looks better driving that shooting

[msstate7]

Yes he can

Hopefully just fatigue

[HoopsDawg]

Hopefully just fatigue

His conditioning really suffered last year. I think he has asthma. He makes poor turnovers and commits silly fouls when he is gassed.

[Bdawg]

Come on dawgs!! Push hard to finish this half and stretch the lead!! Don't relax!!!

[HoopsDawg]

This team would be so good if Weatherspoon was a 38% 3 point shooter. Dang it.

[Maroonthirteen]

I expected a full house. Lots of empty seats on the sides. Is the rain to blame?

Rebs in Mem metro are already looking to baseball. Also it's an 1-1.5 drive from Memphis metro to oxford. 6p tip doesn't help.

[msstate7]

This team would be so good if Weatherspoon was a 38% 3 point shooter. Dang it.

Or if carter were the shooter we get told he is

[msstate7]

Weatherspoon needs a break

[Bdawg]

Bad pull up Nick

[bobtail bob]

Come on dawgs , run some clock off you got a big lead

[msstate7]

Just a complete shit run to end half.

[Bdawg]

We gunna piss the lead away before half aren't we?

[msstate7]

We have 2 studs down low in perry and ado, and nothing behind them

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Tyree eating Weatherspoons lunch again...

[starkvegasdawg]

They are aware you can shoot the ball inside the three point line?

[Bdawg]

We have no killer instinct. Always relaxing at points throughout the game.

[msstate7]

Their big man that's killing us has 2 fouls and we bombing 3s

[msstate7]

Tyree eating Weatherspoons lunch again...

Nick ain't close to him as a player

[RocketDawg]

The big lead has melted. We'll be lucky to be leading at all at the half.

[R2Dawg]

Well we sucked the last part of the first half; just couldn't play a good first half.

[MaroonFlounder]

Keep missing 3s dammit

[msstate7]

They are in serious foul trouble though... 2nd half should be us

[starkvegasdawg]

Pissed away two double digit leads. Should be up 20.

[Maridian Dawg]

Their 2 best players now have 3 fouls each. We are wearing them down.

[R2Dawg]

We have 2 studs down low in perry and ado, and nothing behind them

Yes, we have to find another big soon. We got Ado one more year.

[HoopsDawg]

What was the +- with carter on court that run? You can't post that only when it's bad haha

at the half, we were +20 with Ado on the court. -5 with Carter.

[msstate7]

They doing this without perry and ado on the floor. They in trouble in 2nd half

[bobtail bob]

That jacket Davis has on looks like it came off the rack at Hudson?s salvage dirty cheap in Hattiesburg

[msstate7]

at the half, we were +20 with Ado on the court. -5 with Carter.

That's pretty unfair to carter to be honest. Is he responsible for sy? Sy has 14 at half and avg 9

[CJDAWG85]

This should be a damn blowout. Keep attacking the damn basket.

[msstate7]

This should be a damn blowout. Keep attacking the damn basket.

They are completely eviscerating us without ado on the floor.

[Commercecomet24]

We have way to many empty possessions every game. Bad passes, unforced turnovers, bad shots. I swear its like we just completely lose focus for periods every game.

[MarketingBully]

Didn?t like Howland?s old school take out of Ado and Perry when they got two fouls. That?s the game right there. You leave them in and this is still a 10+ point game. We had Oduro and Feazell in there for their run at the end of the half.

[CJDAWG85]

We fell in love with the jump shot towards the end of the half.

[Todd4State]

I was curious as to whether or not we would use him at DE or OLB.

[MarketingBully]

They are completely eviscerating us without ado on the floor.

Couple that with Howland sitting Perry the last two minutes and there went the offensive production.

[HoopsDawg]

That's pretty unfair to carter to be honest. Is he responsible for sy? Sy has 14 at half and avg 9

It's just a stat. You do it all the time. And you asked for it. As I said, Ado has been the key player tonight. Nick and Carter aren't playing well.

[HoopsDawg]

We have way to many empty possessions every game. Bad passes, unforced turnovers, bad shots. I swear its like we just completely lose focus for periods every game.

Exactly right. That's why we are on the bubble. Unforced turnovers and mental errors.

[msstate7]

Couple that with Howland sitting Perry the last two minutes and there went the offensive production.

I'm fine with sitting perry there. He doesn't need 3 fouls before round 10-12 mins to go

[Ari Gold]

Couple that with Howland sitting Perry the last two minutes and there went the offensive production.

2 fouls and we have the lead.. 100% you take him out..

[Commercecomet24]

Exactly right. That's why we are on the bubble. Unforced turnovers and mental errors.

It just drives me crazy!

[msstate7]

Didn?t like Howland?s old school take out of Ado and Perry when they got two fouls. That?s the game right there. You leave them in and this is still a 10+ point game. We had Oduro and Feazell in there for their run at the end of the half.

Hinson and buffen have 3 fouls. Sy has 2. We gonna nut check them down low in the 2nd half. I say we win by 8+

[MarketingBully]

I'm fine with sitting perry there. He doesn't need 3 fouls before round 10-12 mins to go

They couldn?t deal with him because they don?t have a guy to guard him. I?d of taken a chance and left him in. Howland?s old school thinking got Ole Miss back in the game. Sitting players with two fouls is dumb. Especially with how little depth we have. They basically scored at will with both Perry and Ado off the court:

You take them out and it’s not even debatable... that’s not old school that’s common sense ..

[jdelta02]

DJ Stewart is playing very well in the first half against Ole Miss. He came out strong in the first half of the Kentucky game as well. Had 15 points in that game (tied for Miss. State's) leading scorer.

[HoopsDawg]

And I would like to see more Molinar but I get why Howland doesn't play him. He gets blown by on defense off the dribble. Doesn't make sense with his athleticism and speed. Probably just a result of not having to play defense in AAU.

[msstate7]

And I would like to see more Molinar but I get why Howland doesn't play him. He gets blown by on defense off the dribble. Doesn't make sense with his athleticism and speed. Probably just a result of not having to play defense in AAU.

Howland has a short fuse with him it seems

And being a true freshman. He will be night and day next year if he puts in the work

[LC Dawg]

I wish Howland would tell his guys they can take a 3 but if they miss they will go to the bench. Maybe they won't love that shot so much. I think we could win without taking another one.

[Dawgcap]

I agree. Gotta take them out. It?s a game of runs. I?d of been happy with a bigger lead but to be honest any lead is better than what I expected heading in. It?s a big difference leaving a guard in with 2 fouls vs a big. Correct call I think

[msstate7]

I wish Howland would tell his guys they can take a 3 but if they miss they will go to the bench. Maybe they won't love that shot so much. I think we could win without taking another one.

How bout no 3s before the ball goes in the paint?

[R2Dawg]

UK down to Vandy at half and Ark getting killed by UT at half. Ark is tanking their season.

[R2Dawg]

Love Perry but he can't finish inside with players on him. No explosion off floor.

[msstate7]

Nick is pretty awful tonight so far

[msstate7]

Welp, we have gave them life

[MarketingBully]

Welp, we have gave them life

That all comes back to those 2 foul take outs by Howland.

[NCDawg]

Team in black makes too many dumb mistakes.

[msstate7]

Nick...
0 pts 3 assist 3 TOs

He's being abused out there

[bobtail bob]

Waiting on good dawgs to show back up

[LC Dawg]

How bout no 3s before the ball goes in the paint?
I'd take that. Even we they collapse on Perry we need to be cutting toward the basket.

[CJDAWG85]

Howland getting completely out coached by a guy with one remaining TO.

[msugolf]

We were up 31-18. Been out scored 20-3 since. Good teams don't let that happen

[R2Dawg]

Nick is pretty awful tonight so far

His worst game of year I think.

[Ari Gold]

I wish Howland would tell his guys they can take a 3 but if they miss they will go to the bench. Maybe they won't love that shot so much. I think we could win without taking another one.

I wish we would attack the basket
But like Fishback said we shoot the 2nd best 3point % in the league
Which means we don?t shot that many

[msstate7]

Nick, sit

[R2Dawg]

This team has quit right now. Spoon has to show up soon or we will get run out of bld.

[MarketingBully]

We are going to get blown out.

[msstate7]

We gonna get beat. The difference in this game is OM has a better coach, unfortunately

[HoopsDawg]

horrible D by Nick there. What was he doing?

[CJDAWG85]

This is ****ing pathetic. Welcome back to the shit we were!!! Typical State garbage

[Ari Gold]

That all comes back to those 2 foul take outs by Howland.

Hahahahaha.... this is what I mean by zero basketball IQ...

[msstate7]

I thought we would come out and go after their bigs with our size, but they playing their game, not ours

[msu15]

That decision to sit both Ado and Perry at the end of the half is really working out. We're getting out-coached again.

[RLM38654]

Back to typical MSU basketball. Good grief

[MaroonFlounder]

Has Molinar played any at all?

[starkvegasdawg]

Time to watch Ghost Adventures. I'll check back in a few minutes maybe.

[MarketingBully]

We gonna get beat. The difference in this game is OM has a better coach, unfortunately

I don?t think they listen to Howland. Have you noticed he knows exactly what Ole Miss does. 1-3-1 halfcourt trap into a 2/3 zone. He said all of that shit in the press conference. But when our team sees it. Lazy ass passes don?t get it in the middle don?t go to Perry and take long ass jump shots. Exactly what Ole Miss wants us to do and what Howland doesn?t want us to do. I don?t understand why they don?t listen to Howland...

[State82]

This is a prime example of why the Hump has an extremely high vacancy rate.

[BeardoMSU]

The bed shitting has commenced...****s sake.

[R2Dawg]

Lose tonight and goodbye NCAAT

[Irondawg]

You can’t fix stupid and we are a low low low Basketball team. Kermit switched to a defense that makes us make quick passes to score and we are incapable of making those quick decisions and good passes so we settle for garbage shots half the time.

We may win but I honestly quit watching the games because we typically playing poor fundamental basketball. This is the first game I’ve watched out of the last 5 and looks like it hasn’t changed much. Hope we come back but we are wasting this one away at the moment

[Cowbell]

I do not understand why we leave our Post player on the perimeter and do not feed it inside. This is a close game that shouldn't be.

[msstate7]

Nice, Woodard

[msstate7]

Last 2 possessions, our game

[MarketingBully]

That decision to sit both Ado and Perry at the end of the half is really working out. We're getting out-coached again.

Bingo.

[Turfdawg67]

Lose tonight and goodbye NCAAT

Who cares, we'll be 1 and done anyway. This team has no heart.

[msstate7]

Sy 3rd

[R2Dawg]

Perry fouled and then BS foul on other end.

[msstate7]

Attack the paint!

[LC Dawg]

Every time we attack the basket we're successful! It ain't rocket surgery. Or even Chemistry. Keep attacking.

[msstate7]

Nick is killing us.

[MarketingBully]

What does this team do in practice I wonder? They act like they don?t get coached worth a shit.

[Ezsoil]

Inability to beat a zone.....and an unwillingness to play a zone ....this team is NIT bound

[3rdGen]

Is it just me or are we taking some of the worst shot selections we could possibly come up with?

[msstate7]

Did nick bet on this game or is he just this overmatched by OM's guards?

[MarketingBully]

Nick is killing us.

Everyone is killing us. No one knows how to execute a decent entry pass into the post. No one knows how to accurately reverse the ball and no one knows how to pass worth a shit period. What do these guys do in practice? Seriously?

[3rdGen]

Hell we go to the paint twice for two easy layups and then we just start chunkin the ball at the rim.

[HoopsDawg]

Nick looks like Tony from Blue Chips tonight.

[MarketingBully]

Did nick bet on this game or is he just this overmatched by OM's guards?

I think he?s allowed one or two mistakes to snowball into oblivion.

[Turfdawg67]

Every time we attack the basket we're successful! It ain't rocket surgery. Or even Chemistry. Keep attacking.

Nah... let's just pass around the perimeter and then jack up a 3 or a long 2.

[Dawsonmsu]

Nit here we come - please push the ball down the floor. A loss is to be expected with this kind of half court offense.

[Lord McBuckethead]

I switched tvs. Time to go. Down 6 with 12 left.

[Dawgology]

All I know is these Ole Miss fans are SUPER excited to finally be winning against not their real rivals in something

[RougeDawg]

Once again a 5 minute stretch to end the 1st half erased the entire lead and momentum.

[bobtail bob]

We look lost

[msudawg1200]

Lose this one and we MUST win at Arky on Saturday. If we lose this one it is most likely this team's death knell anyway.

[msstate7]

Our guards aren't in the same galaxy with theirs. Nick and carter would never play for OM

[RougeDawg]

37-13 runs are inexcusable. Get ready to see the 1-3-1 zone the rest of the season.

[R2Dawg]

This may be worse than Joe blowing the no1 D in country in 18. Most talent we've had in 15 years and we don't even look NIT worthy.

[MarketingBully]

Once again a 5 minute stretch to end the 1st half erased the entire lead and momentum.

Taking Ado and Perry out with two fouls sparked a 35-14 run.

[bobtail bob]

Don?t matter what happens We have no guard play who can win in any type of post season. I?m tied of this brand of basketball

[HoopsDawg]

Our guards aren't in the same galaxy with theirs. Nick and carter would never play for OM

Nick -20. 0 points, 0-5, 5 Turnovers. Mind boggling.

[3rdGen]

[Lord McBuckethead]

Well 17 guys. We don't deserve to go to the tourney if we allow a simple zone to shut us the 17 down.

[dantheman4248]

It's almost like iso ball and shitty team offense with minimal movement is super ineffective against the zone. 37-13 run.

Can't wait for the run at the end of the game because we're that talented to win. And then we'll have the same people praising them. Hopefully they wake up and decide to play team basketball not isoball

[HoopsDawg]

Woodard, take that 3!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WildDawg]

Why are they passing around that trap zone?? Attack with dribble penetration! We are doing just what they want us to....make them foul you!

[msstate7]

Kermit has bent howland over his knee tonight.

[3rdGen]

Will we ever score in transition?

[Commercecomet24]

Do we even practice against a zone trap? We always look like we've never seen it before.

[HoopsDawg]

I can barely take another bad entry pass by Carter.

[Dawsonmsu]

The game has moved beyond Ben Howland. Time for us to move on. We need a better X’s and O’s Coach. Way too much talent being squandered.

[msugolf]

This just isn't a good team. Good as in NCAA tourney good. We have great athletes with no concept of how to play quick, high IQ basketball. When our guys get frustrated they just try to force things to happen. Whether it isn't being taught or they aren't listening or they aren't capable, whatever. We have pieces, not a team.

[Cowbell]

Do we even practice against a zone trap? We always look like we've never seen it before.

Do we even practice?

[R2Dawg]

Why are they passing around that trap zone?? Attack with dribble penetration! We are doing just what they want us to....make them foul you!

Piss poor coaching. Spoon can drive around this zone easy and dish for a dunk every time or open J. Our coaching is really bad.

[Commercecomet24]

Do we even practice?


That's an even better question.

[WildDawg]

Do we even practice against a zone trap? We always look like we've never seen it before.

They have seen us wilt against most teams with half/full pressure defense. We don’t know how to attack it and play timid. Plus we throw up stupid shots!

[HoopsDawg]

Carter and Nick, 1-10 with 9 turnovers, 0 steals. College basketball is a guard oriented game.

[Cowbell]

This is the epitome of getting out coached. Anyone that wants to argue that needs to take off their maroon sunshades.

[R2Dawg]

I've seen junior high teams better prepared and coached.

[dantheman4248]

This just isn't a good team. Good as in NCAA tourney good. We have great athletes with no concept of how to play quick, high IQ basketball. When our guys get frustrated they just try to force things to happen. Whether it isn't being taught or they aren't listening or they aren't capable, whatever. We have pieces, not a team.

Be careful or The Entourage ™️ will come tell you about his basketball knowledge and how wrong you are. Talking dangerous there.

[Commercecomet24]

Yep exactly. We don't handle token pressure very well much less real pressure.

[Cowbell]

That's an even better question.
Study hall instead since no more tutors

[Lord McBuckethead]

Piss poor coaching. Spoon can drive around this zone easy and dish for a dunk every time or open J. Our coaching is really bad.

Exactly. Spoon can get penetration. No idea what we are doing. We haven't even tried to penetrate the zone. Spoon can do it.

[HoopsDawg]

Yep exactly. We don't handle token pressure very well much less real pressure.

The 1-3-1 shouldn't work for more than 2 or 3 possessions unless you are in middle school.

[Maroonthirteen]

This just isn't a good team. Good as in NCAA tourney good. We have great athletes with no concept of how to play quick, high IQ basketball.

Boom goes the dynamite

[Lord McBuckethead]

10 pts with 8 left.

[msstate7]

Nick is taking a dive

[Liverpooldawg]

Lose this one and we MUST win at Arky on Saturday. If we lose this one it is most likely this team's death knell anyway.

Losing to a bad team at this stage of the game ends any hope of the Dance, it won't happen. I do not like this team at all.

[Dawg2003]

This team is like an abusive relationship. They reel you in and then bitch slap you with a performance like tonight.

[Lord McBuckethead]

17 man. Man we are sucking.

[HoopsDawg]

Tyree wearing Nick out.

[BuckyIsAB****]

This is why nobody gives a shit. We are a chore to watch 75 percent of our games. Culture problems too much me not enough we. OM wont even make the NIT

[msugolf]

Be careful or The Entourage ™️ will come tell you about his basketball knowledge and how wrong you are. Talking dangerous there.

Meh I played at a much higher level of that guy ever dreamed about playing at. And the people I talk to who share my sentiments played on NCAA tourney teams. I don't need his approval

[Dawg2003]

Arkansas is also shit. Their NET will drop.

[HoopsDawg]

Nick is taking a dive

seems fishy to me. I'm dead serious.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Get the ball in. Foul. Got to do that every posession

[Bdawg]

Is the lob pass all we know to try to break a half court press?

[3rdGen]

Even the announcers are talking about how we need to attack the zone. Talking about how passive we are on offense.

[MaroonFlounder]

Baseball starts Friday. I'm done.

[MarketingBully]

Do they pass this bad in the NBA? I mean holy heck Howland can?t coach worth a shit.

[RocketDawg]

So much for being a second half team.

[Maroonthirteen]

When does Tyree graduate? That dude has kicked our ass for a decade.

[msstate7]

This is embarrassing. F this team!

[Lord McBuckethead]

Well thats the NIT. Good job dawgs.

[3rdGen]

What the literal 17 are we doing here!!!!!!

[MarketingBully]

I don?t want to hear Ari defend this shit. Howland is not a good coach. He was a good coach but he isn?t now.

[Lord McBuckethead]

No way that was an offensive foul.

[msstate7]

I agreed with sitting perry and ado in 1st half, but it lost this game. That decision and nick getting treated like a junior high player lost this game

[HoopsDawg]

Nick you are making it too obvious bro. Not even fighting thru a pick.

[RocketDawg]

There's been about a 30 point swing since 5 minutes to go in the first half.

[Commercecomet24]

The 1-3-1 shouldn't work for more than 2 or 3 possessions unless you are in middle school.

Dang exactly! No way it should work for a whole game! SMH

[msstate7]

Nick, you can't play with these guys. Shut the F up

[BuckyIsAB****]

This is pretty Moorheadesque

[Dawgology]

Typical Ben Howland Bulldog basketball team. But y'all keep on toting that water bucket. Good luck. Focusing on WBB and baseball until fall.

[BeardoMSU]

Dickless wonders...

[Turfdawg67]

What a waste of talent.

[Dawsonmsu]

This is so embrassing.

[Commercecomet24]

Well we won't have to worry about that pesky ncaa tournament this year. Tonight is just an awful showing by players and coaches.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Nick you are making it too obvious bro. Not even fighting thru a pick.

Why would he purposely blow a game what does he have to gain from it

[PKADogs55]

Soft, undisciplined, deserve to lose. Just sad to watch. Should have beat the Shit out of these clowns.

[3rdGen]

I?m don?t turning this shit show off.

[CJDAWG85]

Leave Howland there

[Reunion Dog]

No leadership..
No coaching..

PATHETIC!

BURN THOSE 17 BLACK UNI'S!

[Commercecomet24]

Typical Ben Howland Bulldog basketball team. But y'all keep on toting that water bucket. Good luck. Focusing on WBB and baseball until fall.

Yep time to focus on Vic and the Diamond Dawgs.

[RougeDawg]

They flat out gave up. Pathetic. I hope they don?t even make the NIT after this effort.

[Dawsonmsu]

Kermit Davis would win the Sec with our roster.

[HoopsDawg]

Why would he purposely blow a game what does he have to gain from it

$$$$. gambling is big business.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Well. Maybe NIT boys.

[msstate7]

Why would he purposely blow a game what does he have to gain from it

He has no future in basketball

[Commercecomet24]

This reminds me to much of the football team under moorhead

[dantheman4248]

This right here is why this team didn't get support last year and doesn't get support this year. They choke in the one game that matters and show piss poor ****ing effort. I'd rather watch 5 guys who give a shit about the name on their jersey than these guys.

[LC Dawg]

Ben Howland is Kermit Davis's bitch.

[Dawsonmsu]

Our only hope is for Ben Howland to retire after this season. We need to contact Stan Jones immediately.

[Cloak]

We just got embarrassed by the worst team in the SEC. How is that even possible

[dawgday166]

He has no future in basketball

Did someone think he did? He's alright as a college player most times but he ain't an NBA player. Frazier would've shut Tyree down tonight.

[R2Dawg]

There is no leadership or chemistry on this team. We have all quit. I see no one being a leader. Kinda what you get with poor coaching and your best players are freshmen and soph.

I see no way we make tourney now. Could only lose 1 more at most; we'll lose 4-5 or more now.

[MarketingBully]

I agreed with sitting perry and ado in 1st half, but it lost this game. That decision and nick getting treated like a junior high player lost this game

It gave OM Mo and confidence. We were up 12 when old fuddy duddy did that. Since that time the run has been massive.

[HoopsDawg]

We are still +2 with Ado on the court. -32 with Nick on the court. Never seen a swing like that when both guys have played more than 25 minutes.

Molinar makes 1 turnover and Howland takes him out.

[Lord McBuckethead]

We will not lose 4-5 more. But shit, we are better than this team. They just out coached us to the hilt.

[dawgday166]

This is a soft team. Said that a few games ago.

[msstate7]

Sy outplayed perry too

[msudawg1200]

$$$$. gambling is big business.

Damn dude, he just played like ass. Get out of here with that.

[Maroonthirteen]

$$$$. gambling is big business.

Get out with that. Tyree is just a better player. Weatherspoon nor Carter can handle his quickness or strength on either end. Also neither of our guards are good shooters. And they aren't physical.
