State vs UGA basketball thread...

[RocketDawg]

Yes, we missed the second of the two free throws on purpose to run out the .5 on the clock.

Q basically just got to shoot the free-throw over again after he missed it allegedly because of the stuffed animal. That's fair, but I don't ever think I've seen a one-shot technical before.

[Liverpooldawg]

I'll bet the student (assuming it was a student) that threw the stuffed animal on the court never sees the inside of that place again until graduation services.

I don't think that came from the student section. By the angle it was near mid court.

This game is a prime example of why God allowed man to stumble upon the creation of alcohol.

Yes, but he actually made it easier and gave us a ready-to-use plant... but I digress.

[HoopsDawg]

Any chance we pull the shirt on Stewart? I'm sure we won't, but I wonder how close to ready he is

no chance.

I heard today that this is the first time since 2004 we have won 3 Road SEC games in a row.

Didn't he get fouled shooting a three?? Missed one, made one and missed one on purpose... where's the extra shot?

Nice stat, and quite sad if true

[Ari Gold]

Holman and Petersdecided to just play like shit. I'd rather have Datcher than Holman

If Datcher hasn?t played all year there is a reason. My guess he is redshirting and transferring

Can?t risk it at this point. If Howland is going to waste minutes playing Holman over Woodard, we are not going very far in post season. Don?t risk it.

[HoopsDawg]

Find a way to win..that?s all that matters..
really need Nick back badly
And everyone sees why tonight

Nick is probably our 3rd best player. I would rate our top 3:

1. Q
2. Reggie
3. Nick

[RougeDawg]

We usually lose games with some sort of bs like that. It's nice to win one for a change. I wouldn't want to be the dumb ass that threw that thing on the court.

Was thinking this myself. I?ve seen us lose so many games like this my mind was slipping into mentally accepting another notch on the belt. Mississippi State teams never make winning easy.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Datcher has played. Early in the season for like 5 minutes.

I hate watching this team play

[Dawgcap]

We are an amazingly talented team who has no identity. The only remotely consistent player has been Q and even he has his stretches. This is the type team that can shock many nationally by a Sweet 16 run or better or settle in to the type heartbreak team we expect to see happen. I can’t remember seeing a team with this many inconsistencies game to game.

[Dawg61]

Georgia is absolutely horrible. There?s a reason they?ve only won one game in conference. We have to have Peters play 1000x better then he is. He?s playing horrifyingly bad right now.

I thought we looked totally gassed the last 12 minutes. We aren't used to a 7 man rotation especially against a big team like UGA. Right now is when we're missing Eli and Stapleton.

I?ll one up you. If this team has a hot streak from Lamar and Q at the same time, a final four run is possible. We have the depth down low to compete. We just need more scoring from our smaller guys.

[msstate7]

We've essentially had to play without both our starting guards the last 2 games. Peters has to step the frick up. Here's his last 2 lines...
Vs ark: 5 pts 3 assists 1 reb
Vs Georgia: 0 pts 2 assists 1 reb

Carter the last 2:
Vs ark: 18 pts. 4 assists 3 reb
Vs Georgia: 11 pts 4 assists 3 reb

Carter is stepping up to replace some of nick's production. Peters is killing us.

I think Elite 8 and kinda where I was going but I won’t be totally shocked if we don’t make the tournament. We are more than talented but something about this team scares me. Almost like we have some fragile egos that won’t allow them to go out and fight as a team. Everything is there but we are lacking a chemistry. If we find it we can be nasty. If not... we’ll we know that situation

[parabrave]

Coach Howland talking about the travel problems with the plane and hotels in the postgame interview. Who is running the travel office and what type of Aircraft are they chartering, a 1942 DC3 with the Cleveland Indians decal on it.

[Dawg61]

Meanwhile Tookie Brown is averaging 17.5 points and 5.1 assists a game. He had a 28 point 10 assist game two weeks ago. Not to throw salt in the PG wound or anything.**
