SPG 6.9 / 5.6

Spread is USC -4.5.

**Personal edit: Was at Aric Holman's old gym last night for the Owensboro game. They won State 2 years ago against some of the big boys when he was there. He was going to visit USC, but committed to MSU prior. Family decision. Good kid.

Learned this after moving here: In KY, there are no classes for HS basketball. There are District Champs, then Region Champs, then a State Tourney with schools of all sizes in a Sweet Sixteen. The tiniest country school can win it all.

Go Cocks!

12 sec and Silva with a foul

 

[jeff2001]

Beautiful pass to Kotsar. 8-5

 

[jeff2001]

Kotsar very aggressive tonight so far.

 

[aj&uscgrad]

I swear Bookers shot produces the prettiest swishes

 

[jeff2001]

14-11 not us.

 

[Mooshie001]

Big men getting it done so far that’s our recipe for winning.

 

[jeff2001]

Need to put Myers on a milk carton?

 

[Rod Dangerfield]

Just glad we haven't turned Gueye so far.

 

[jeff2001]

23-18 msu

 

[jeff2001]

23 up.

 

[jeff2001]

Beatty scored !

 

[jeff2001]

How about an intentional foul ?

 

[jeff2001]

Gravett , me and my son call him "Dragon ball z". Super Saiyan

 

[Rod Dangerfield]

Uh oh....we're Gueye.

 

[jeff2001]

Offensively challenged 5 on the court right now.

 

[Vincent Hanna]

Gravett , me and my son call him "Dragon ball z". Super Saiyan

His name is Shocktop. Substitutes not accepted.

 

[jeff2001]

Up 5 with a minute to go in half.

37-36 msu

 

[Rod Dangerfield]

Never easy. Just like in football.

 

[aj&uscgrad]

Jeez we aren't worth a crap finishing a half

 

[USCBIRDS]

The whole team is offensively challenged. We’re a turnover machine too. You should never get caught without a true Point Guard.

 

[Vincent Hanna]

Such an... unpolished product. Up 5 with a chance to have some breathing room and we trot out Gravett, Gueye, Haase, Booker, and Hinson with like 2 mins left. Strangely we now trail.

 

[Horseshoe 04]

BOOM !

 

[jeff2001]

44-40 msu

 

[GamecockJL]

We aren’t even as talented as Miss State

 

[jeff2001]

Dang

 

[jeff2001]

48-40

 

[Rod Dangerfield]

What.

The.

Hell.

 

[RockThrillCock]

Kotsar was open with the roll and then Myers made another dumb move.

 

[Jaybird1010]

We need to go and recruit guards that can create there own shot. We work for every shot we have.

 

[RockThrillCock]

So our point guard Myers is a transfer from the juggernaut Maine! We have another one from FAU, great recruiting Frank. You give yourself your own headaches.

 

[Horseshoe 04]

Screw them “Silva Time “

 

[Jaybird1010]

We have NO guard on this team that can drive the lane on a consistent basis.

 

[Horseshoe 04]

Booker takes the shot from here on out for the rest of the year

 

[Vincent Hanna]

So our point guard Myers is a transfer from the juggernaut Maine! We have another one from FAU, great recruiting Frank. You give yourself your own headaches.

Don't forget our big men from the basketball rich countries of Chile and Senegal. The SEC is toast once we get that pipeline established in Dakar.

 

[jeff2001]

They're not missing right now.

 

[jeff2001]

MSU guards are way quicker than ours.

 

[king ward]

Frank has it all under control. He understands the nuances of recruiting like no one else in America.

 

[RockThrillCock]

Kotsar can do so much more offensively. Dribble, fake, spin, shot. McHale wasn’t a banger either but he can learn a lot.

 

[Rod Dangerfield]

No worries. Mike Morgan is on the call. We'll win. Always do when he calls our game.
