State vs tcu game thread

[msstate7]

We need this one

[99jc]

We need this one

lol dream on brother

[RocketDawg]

Looks like a late start, or starting on the News or U. Alabama game is going to drag on forever even though they're getting blown out. Should just stop televising at 3:00.

[EdwardDrayton]

Back for another game because apparently we do not have enough frustration in our lives.

[msstate7]

lol dream on brother

I'm certainly not betting my power bill money on it, but BPI favors us and the line is 1.5. We have a shot

[RocketDawg]

My statement is almost irrelevant - I was on the wrong channel. But Iowa State/Missouri is going forever as well. And the alternate is the ESPN App.

[EdwardDrayton]

Alabama getting prison bitched by Oklahoma.

[EdwardDrayton]

I'm certainly not betting my power bill money on it, but BPI favors us and the line is 1.5. We have a shot

"Shot"=15%

[RocketDawg]

Game isn't available on the ESPN App at 3:05. Supposed to start at 3:00.

[msstate7]

That's hard to watch a player crying holding his knee. Gotta figure he's done

[LC Dawg]

That's hard to watch a player crying holding his knee. Gotta figure he's done
That was horrible to watch in person.

[Cowbell]

Back for another game because apparently we do not have enough frustration in our lives.

Lol

[Cowbell]

That was horrible to watch in person.

Who went down?

[msstate7]

Miles Avgs 19 a game. This is a must win

[Ranchdawg]

Been there and done that! Hypertension knee. Second time it took months to get over!

[EdwardDrayton]

That's hard to watch a player crying holding his knee. Gotta figure he's done

That was a wicked hyperextension.

[RocketDawg]

Who went down?

A TCU player. He tried to get up but couldn't. Don't know his name.

[msstate7]

Dj does almost everything well but shoot. If he had Matthews' mindset, he'd be a nice player

[EdwardDrayton]

TCU: Imma gon drive the basket on you.

Cam: No. No you're not.

LOL!!

[EdwardDrayton]

Dj does almost everything well but shoot. If he had Matthews' mindset, he'd be a nice player

I would tell him I'd break his fingers if he shoots outside 12 feet.

[msstate7]

Great play, Davis

[msstate7]

Does Davis have another year?

[EdwardDrayton]

TCU just not the same team without Miles. This one is a lot more interesting now.

[msstate7]

TCU just not the same team without Miles. This one is a lot more interesting now.

Well of course, but they weren't doing anything with him today either. Our defense is legit

[EdwardDrayton]

Well of course, but they weren't doing anything with him today either. Our defense is legit

Yeah well our 'legit' defense hasn't won us any games lately.

[msstate7]

Yeah well our 'legit' defense hasn't won us any games lately.
Yeah our defense costing us games

[EdwardDrayton]

Yeah our defense costing us games

So you're in a mood again today. LOL!!

[msstate7]

Can tolu, Davis, anf dj come back next season?

[RocketDawg]

Good half except for the last 30-something seconds. And why the foul?

[msstate7]

What a horse shit call

[EdwardDrayton]

Can tolu, Davis, anf dj come back next season?

Tolu - No
DJ - No
Davis - Listed as a senior but should have two years of eligibility left

[msstate7]

If that is a flagrant foul, why isn't every foul at the end of the game a flagrant foul? My God, college basketball is the absolute worst product... why do I love it?

[HoopsDawg]

DJ 0-6 from 3. At this point, DJ shooting a 3 is the same as a turnover.

[msstate7]

DJ 0-6 from 3. At this point, DJ shooting a 3 is the same as a turnover.

He shouldn't shoot. I will say that a lot of his shots are bc it's the end of the shot clock. I'm ok with those, but he and Matthews are the same player... neither should attempt a 3 early

[HoopsDawg]

It's taken almost the whole season, but Jans FINALLY cut 11's minutes.

[EdwardDrayton]

DJ 0-6 from 3. At this point, DJ shooting a 3 is the same as a turnover.

He is a liability from 3. Don't understand why Jans doesn't put a stop to it but Howland didn't either.

[CaptainObvious]

I see TCU has State right where they want them.

[RocketDawg]

If that is a flagrant foul, why isn't every foul at the end of the game a flagrant foul? My God, college basketball is the absolute worst product... why do I love it?

Yep. Never understood the obviously intentional fouls near the end not being called intentional. And I suppose, therefore flagrant.

[R2Dawg]

Get Cam the ball under goal or coming down the lane and its over.

[R2Dawg]

He is a liability from 3. Don't understand why Jans doesn't put a stop to it but Howland didn't either.

Yep DJ kills us in stretches

[EdwardDrayton]

Get Cam the ball under goal or coming down the lane and its over.

Cam takes no prisoners. Absolutely love the way he plays.

[R2Dawg]

Why ai't Shaq on the floor?

And Russell don't play for a month and no he logging monster minutes?

[R2Dawg]

Jans substitutions and PT decisions confuse me

[CaptainObvious]

I just saw where State went the last 5 minutes of the half without a field goal. Our men have turned basketball into Soccer.

[R2Dawg]

And here comes the collapse and TCU will hit every shot they throw up.

[msstate7]

Tolu - No
DJ - No
Davis - Listed as a senior but should have two years of eligibility left

Why wouldn't tolu get the Covid season?

[CaptainObvious]

Jans substitutions and PT decisions confuse me

What do y?all expect him to do? Ain?t a damn one of ?em worth a scholarship!

[CaptainObvious]

Why wouldn't tolu get the Covid season?

Why would you want him back? Good grief! I don?t want any of these clowns back. Go recruit the Sanderson.

[msstate7]

Why would you want him back? Good grief! I don?t want any of these clowns back. Go recruit the Sanderson.

Why would I want back a guy that's good? Hmmm...

[EdwardDrayton]

Why wouldn't tolu get the Covid season?

I'm not an expert on this 7 but my understanding is that they got an extra year to get in four years of eligibility. This is Tolu's fourth year.

[msstate7]

Gotta rebound guys

[msstate7]

I'm not an expert on this 7 but my understanding is that they got an extra year to get in four years of eligibility. This is Tolu's fourth year.

That 4th year includes 2020, which got canceled out

[parabrave]

Next time DJ puts up a 3 he gets the Willie Mays Hayes treatment, 0-7.

[Ranchdawg]

If we lose it will because of turnovers at the 12min 2nd half. Come on guys you just can?t turn the ball over in tight games.

[EdwardDrayton]

That 4th year includes 2020, which got canceled out

So if that's the way it works then he and DJ both should have one more year.

[archdog]

DJ just is basically a turnover. Can we just give his minutes to someone else.

[HoopsDawg]

Not McNair's day, get Tolu and Cam back in the game immediately.

[msstate7]

Why do I watch this shit? Every game for the last 5 years is exactly the same... we come close, but lose. This program should swallow an atom bomb and just disappear from the face of the earth

[R2Dawg]

Well the fans have showed up and load again. Can't blame anything on the fans like some do all the time on why we don't win in any sport. Our fans have hung in there this season. We need to finish this one bad.

[archdog]

How has DJ just forgot how to shoot?

[R2Dawg]

Not McNair's day, get Tolu and Cam back in the game immediately.

Immediately

[msstate7]

Spoiler alert --- tcu will win by 3-5 points!!!!!

[R2Dawg]

Our season hopes on line in next 7 min

[Ranchdawg]

Come on deadgum it! Don?t turn the ball over. Come on

[R2Dawg]

Maybe Tolu's best game. They can't stop him.

[EdwardDrayton]

How has DJ just forgot how to shoot?

He's the same DJ he was last year unfortunately.

[HoopsDawg]

Immediately

Credit to Jans, he did what I said.

[HoopsDawg]

Maybe Tolu's best game. They can't stop him.

+10 with Tolu today. -9 with McNair. Gotta roll with Tolu the rest of the way

[R2Dawg]

Lucky bank 3, ballgame. Cursed again

[msstate7]

Why do I let this affect me so much? I know what's gonna happen, and yet, I still let it ruin my day. I should visit a hypnotist, and tell him to make me get sick at the stomach every time I think about watching miss st basketball

[Ranchdawg]

Tolu is absolutely getting mugged. I thought a defensive player couldn?t put two hands on a player. Heck the TCU guy was wrapping both arms around Tolu. Call it ref

[EdwardDrayton]

Why do I let this affect me so much? I know what's gonna happen, and yet, I still let it ruin my day. I should visit a hypnotist, and tell him to make me get sick at the stomach every time I think about watching miss st basketball

Hang in there 7; we're still in it.

[msstate7]

Hang in there 7; we're still in it.

Lol, everyone knows what's gonna happen. We're a cursed program

[EdwardDrayton]

Lol, everyone knows what's gonna happen. We're a cursed program

Yeah I know what you mean. I just keep hoping one will roll our way.

[msstate7]

We will get a big basket. The. Tcu will get some crazy BS shot to fall, and then we'll miss a layup. Hey, at least ice world 2 starts tonight

[EdwardDrayton]

We've done a good job on the scoring side; better than our usual 55-60. And TCU is about where we would expect them to be without Miles. They're usually around 75-80 with Miles 19.

[msstate7]

Here come a TO that leads to a easy layup win

[R2Dawg]

Horrible last possession, we just can't win

[msstate7]

Hell of a play, jans... are you drunk as me?

[EdwardDrayton]

How about some OT Dawg fans!!!

[Cowbell]

We needed 2 points and we take a 3 for the win. You gotta be kidding me.

[R2Dawg]

5 more minutes of misery

[Ranchdawg]

Some free basketball

[EdwardDrayton]

Horrible last possession, we just can't win

Yeah that was not what we wanted.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

What a piss poor offensive end of regulation

[R2Dawg]

Cam such a valuable player

[EdwardDrayton]

Some Shak sugar baby!!!

[parabrave]

Got no problem with Davis getting the last shot but he should've driven to at least draw a foul/

[R2Dawg]

Do we?

[EdwardDrayton]

The crowd infusing some energy in our Dawgs!!!

[EdwardDrayton]

Tolu with the MONSTER block!!

[parabrave]

Toulu deserves to get the SEC POTW.

[EdwardDrayton]

DAVIIIIIISSSSSS!!!!

[R2Dawg]

Toulu deserves to get the SEC POTW.

We win he will be

[R2Dawg]

Davis has had a heck of a game. Shaq and Cam key too

[R2Dawg]

DJ with a stupid foul

[EdwardDrayton]

Folks, we have scored SEVENTY-SIX points today!!! Who woulda thunk it!!!

[R2Dawg]

Win or lose on FT line now

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Why arent the guards coming to get the ball on inbounds?

[EdwardDrayton]

TCU backfills at least half of Miles points and we STILL WIN!!!!

[CaptainObvious]

Well I?ll be dang. The Bulldogs win a basketball game.

[msstate7]

Great win!!!

[State82]

Nice job from the line to finish out.

[R2Dawg]

Huge win.

[parabrave]

Biggest win of the last 10 years

[EdwardDrayton]

Great win!!!

That truly is a great win. We just saw the team we thought we had eight games ago.

[Cowbell]

Huge win for this program, especially considering the slide they have been on.

[KB21]

Last two games are the best they have played. It?s a great sign.

[NCMSTFAN]

Big win!! If we can get that type of play out of DeShawn Davis and Shak together more, we are tough to beat. At the college level you have to have good gaurd play, they both played well today

[Ranchdawg]

Dawgs win it feels good to say that. Thank you fans for showing up

[EdwardDrayton]

Big win!! If we can get that type of play out of DeShawn Davis and Shak together more, we are tough to beat. At the college level you have to have good gaurd play, they both played well today

We finally get what we've all been waiting for in conference play. A couple of guards to step up from the field.

[BlackSailsDawg]

We needed that in a major way

[parabrave]

Davis just took it over. This is what we have been missing all year.

[MaroonFlounder]

Biggest win of the last 10 years

Except TCU was without 3 of their main players. I?ll take it though

[msstate7]

Man, I'm so happy. This week has to be 2-0

[msstate7]

Except TCU was without 3 of their main players. I?ll take it though

We still had to make plays to win, and we did

[RocketDawg]

Lol, everyone knows what's gonna happen. We're a cursed program

I was never worried at all. **

[EdwardDrayton]

Except TCU was without 3 of their main players. I?ll take it though

We would have been in it for the win regardless.

[RocketDawg]

We finally get what we've all been waiting for in conference play. A couple of guards to step up from the field.

Maybe this will get them over the mental. They had to be down on themselves.

[parabrave]

Except TCU was without 3 of their main players. I?ll take it though

Dam not a day to be a debby downer.

[msstate7]

I was never worried at all. **

I really hope this is the win we all point to in a couple years as the program changer

[99jc]

I really hope this is the win we all point to in a couple years as the program changer

this team is what it is great defense shitty shooting. i love the optimism. but put down the crack pipe.

[EdwardDrayton]

Maybe this will get them over the mental. They had to be down on themselves.

We thought we probably would have a game when one or two guards would feel it and we'd poach a win. The question becomes can we sustain. But for now just going to pour some silky smooth and bask in the win!!

[parabrave]

Can't complain on the Hump aftergame music selection Queen blaring though on the radio

[EdwardDrayton]

this team is what it is great defense shitty shooting. i love the optimism. but put down the crack pipe.

Well we shot 50% from the field today against #11.

[SmokeyDawg]

this team is what it is great defense shitty shooting. i love the optimism. but put down the crack pipe.


lol dream on brother

Let'em dream

[msstate7]

Well we shot 50% from the field today against #11.
He probably bet against us. I hope he bet his life savings

[msstate7]

lol dream on brother

Nice post

[EdwardDrayton]

He probably bet against us. I hope he bet his life savings

LOL!!

[CJDAWG85]

I took us +1 in the 2H.


Hopefully this team start believing in themselves again. Their D can keep them in any game.

[NCMSTFAN]

Except TCU was without 3 of their main players. I?ll take it though

Yes they were but they still had good remaining players and we proved against Bama that we can play with almost anyone. Don't let what happened to Bama today fool you. They beat alot of good people this season. They were due for a loss

[NCMSTFAN]

We finally get what we've all been waiting for in conference play. A couple of guards to step up from the field.

It's so important to have good gaurd play. Hopefully this can continue

[msstate7]

I really hope we can bring Davis, dj, and tolu next season

[R2Dawg]

Today's win was huge for many reasons.

Outside of the obvious Q1 win is that we get a lot of big PR on national stage for this win in SECBig12 challenge. That matters a lot too.

[EdwardDrayton]

Yes they were but they still had good remaining players and we proved against Bama that we can play with almost anyone. Don't let what happened to Bama today fool you. They beat alot of good people this season. They were due for a loss

TCU was MAYBE five points off their usual output. So they backfilled their scoring almost in full if not in full. We still win by pouring in 81 points. We're in it for the win no matter who they had on the floor.

[EdwardDrayton]

I really hope we can bring Davis, dj, and tolu next season

No doubt. I still believe DJ has huge upside with the right coach who can motivate and develop his talent.

[EdwardDrayton]

Not getting a whole lotta support from our SEC brethren in The Challenge.

[99jc]

He probably bet against us. I hope he bet his life savings

no bet today. i was too busy counting my money! i did taxes today and i am crying.

[msstate7]

no bet today. i was too busy counting my money! i did taxes today and i am crying.

Haha, I feel ya on that

[msstate7]

Haha, nice

[EdwardDrayton]

Broke out the Ardbeg Uigeadail to toast this worthy win. Neat. Salud.

[MetEdDawg]

Jans has the offense playing with noticeably more tempo.

We don't have guys that can create their own shots and take advantage of some of what we create. But I think it's helped us out. Defense is still solid.

Our next 4 games are @SC, Missouri, LSU, and @Arkansas. Would be nice to go 3-1 in that stretch. That gets us back into the conversation. We play no more ranked teams the rest of the way in conference.

I agree, I noticed the offensive improvement last game. He ran some plays that impressed me, he wasn't doing that before

[Cowbell]

I hope we all give Jan's time. We often forget how long it takes to instill culture and get your scheme not just installed, but taught on a level that the leaders on the team can set examples with it. It's obvious now that we are improving with each game.

Think everyone is invested for at least another year. The primary concern is recruiting and how he does next time out in the portal. We'll see how well he does with that next hurdle.

[Rawdawg]

It's so important to have good gaurd play. Hopefully this can continue

Reed only played 7 minutes, still -5 though.

[parabrave]

I agree, I noticed the offensive improvement last game. He ran some plays that impressed me, he wasn't doing that before

I think he turned to Davis to run the offense. Toulu is now getting more help inside the paint so he is not getting mugged. We need another perimeter shooter and DJ isn't it.

[Reason2succeed]

TCU has a real problem with Bulldogs.

[R2Dawg]

I think he turned to Davis to run the offense. Toulu is now getting more help inside the paint so he is not getting mugged. We need another perimeter shooter and DJ isn't it.

Shaq can be the other shooter. I like Stevenson role too. It took nearly all year to figure out PT and roles but we look much more fluid now.

[parabrave]

Thats what Jans said postgame. The boys are finally figuring out what their roles are

[HoopsDawg]

Thats what Jans said postgame. The boys are finally figuring out what their roles are

Davis, Shaq, and Tolu need to take 85% of our shots. Cam and DJ the rest.

[msstate7]

Davis, Shaq, and Tolu need to take 85% of our shots. Cam and DJ the rest.

What you think odds are of us getting Davis, shaq, and tolu back next season?

[EdwardDrayton]

Davis, Shaq, and Tolu need to take 85% of our shots. Cam and DJ the rest.

Yep. If Davis and Shak can maintain a perimeter threat, it will pull teams out of that sag or packline defense. That opens up space for Tolu to operate and maneuver on both sides of the basket. And then we see 27 point, 13 rebound games from him.

[Ari Gold]

no bet today. i was too busy counting my money! i did taxes today and i am crying.

Sure you didn?t... I just took a huge drag from my pipe.. you want a hit ??
