What’s Dans aversion to the first half timeout?

Haha Dan has used maybe 2 timeouts ever in the first half

[Liverpooldawg]

If we lose, that may kill what interest I have left.

And that is why we can?t have nice things.

[BulldogBear]

Timeout UMASS with 47 seconds left in the half.

3rd and 4

Ball at the MSU 44

What's a timeout?

[Liverpooldawg]

Because its UMass at 11 o clock with bama next week you ignorant ass prick, by all means if youre there yell as loud as you can see if it makes them play harder

You think if there was a full house they might have a bit more energy? Maybe?

[BulldogBear]

Playing not to lose. Similar to its cousin the prevent D. Both don't often turn out like you want it to.

[Liverpooldawg]

Good think our HC took time out of his week to send a robocall urging fans to attend this shit show.

He saw this coming, he wasn’t alone.

[BulldogBear]

Sure. We're losing because the crowd isn't bigger or loud enough.*** Then how do we win on the road?

[BeardoMSU]

Lets see how much ass gets chewed and some adjustments made.

[BuckyIsAB****]

You think if there was a full house they might have a bit more energy? Maybe?

Maybe. Itd still be 11 am and itd still be Umass. But it doesnt matter. If you disrespect the game by walking your ass on the field and going through the motions you will be exposed. Sit down and shut up

how many times can you make the same point?

Also, to those of you saying "don't blame the fans for this" I have one thing to say to you. **** off. The reason why Dan and the players wanted a crowd was because we are ranked with a sneaky good UMass team coming in. Dan legitimately didn't look happy at the crowd size when he ran out of the tunnel. The players feed off the crowd and when there isn't a crowd to feed off of, you're gonna struggle. I don't care what kind of team you are. It gets you a LOT more hyped up and inspired when you have a big crowd behind you.

Now does the blame solely lie on the fans? No. The players and coaching staff burden some of the blame too. But get off of your pity run with the "I'm not showing up for an 11 AM non-conference game because I'm too busy doing other things." I'll tell you this, if I could have afforded to come down and watch the game in person, I would have. But I have other obligations that I have to do. Granted, I also don't buy season tickets. I come when I can because I live so far away. But I remember when we used to pack out Davis Wade no matter who we were playing and no matter what time.

So both sides stop bitching at each other and come together for this team for once. Our fanbase is our own worst enemy. And people wonder why opponents make fun of us? When your fanbase argues with each other over petty shit like this, you get the situation we are in. That's all I have to say about it, and I'll return with game updates at the end of halftime.

[Liverpooldawg]

No your mentality is what holds MSU back. You're scared to hold coaches and players accountable. You'd rather blame fans who spend their hard earned money and valuable time supporting their team. That's ass backwards man.

Well, I don’t think you can hold anyone else accountable unless you hold yourself accountable. This has been a poor showing all the way around, team and fans. I’m at the game, but I’m as dead as the rest. The big games take care of themselves. It’s ones like this where we need to do better.

[Bully13]

No excuse for this lack of effort.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Sit down and shut up

Show me at 11 am game sellout anywhere in the country against a 2-6 team and Ill agree with you

He doesn?t want anyone to think he has to actually put a mental effort into winning this game. It?s all on the players according to his halftime interview, but we are coaching like we are playing a cupcake. He needs to acknowledge his offensive coaching is no better than their effort.

They are loading the box. Fitz is one heck of an athlete. But he cannot overcome with his feet what they are doing. If we don?t treat the second half like this is a conference game, we will struggle to win.

[Dawg61]

I'll return with game updates at the end of halftime.

Please don't

[Tbonewannabe]

Do you think the crowd might be more fired up if the team looked like they gave a shit? It works both ways.

He has at least 10 more posts in him. #GrindinforhisState
