Growing pains, men. We need to block out at least a few times in this game so I will be able to eat dinner. We need I.J. to play like a senior. We need to show some defensive discipline.

A top 10 class should not struggle with Northwestern State...........

With or without Weatherspoon we should blow them out. Their RPI is 323.

nothing less than a blowout win will be acceptable.

We're getting better shots at the basket, not just jacking up 3s this game which is a pleasant site.

We are a slow starting team, for sure. You would think with these high energy freshman we would be running around with our hair on fire. With that said, you can tell we are very athletic and are capable of big runs. We just need to be more consistent with our energy level. We wiff on way too many screens in and out of the lane.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Ugh ***** hard to watch sometimes. Wish we could just blow somebody out. Also wish last years team was these freshmen. It's like last years senior laden team delayed the rebuild a year.

 

[Philly Dawg]

The problem right now is that we can't make outside shots. You have to make jumpers if you play a three guard lineup.

0-9 for three good lord. I thought all these guys we got were all good shooters

They've all been good looks, almost uncontested 3s. Can't get em to fall

We need to realize that Spoon is not walking back on that floor and someone has to emerge as the leader. Tyson Carter or Peters just needs to take us and go. I.J. is incapable.

Peters can't quit being suspended apparently

Peters can't quit being suspended apparently

So he's suspended? I get the feeling just watching his body language on the floor that he's a little immature. Nice to know that howlands gonna lay down the law. But hopefully peters gets the message and straightens up, if indeed he's got some issues.

I'm assuming and could be completely off base

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Can't hit open jump shots to save our freaking life

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Even though this team is very talented, it is very apparent they lack some confidence since Q went down. You can almost read it on their face when they take a shot from outside.

They also have a lot to learn on the defensive side of the ball.

It's going to be a tough year but I wouldn't give up yet just because we are struggling in December.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Ugly *** win. I'll take it tho. I dunno how many teams state is gonna manage to beat this year.

 

[Shamoan]

18 people got to watch a bunch of freshmen play some minutes.

 

[Lettucexxxx]

I just hope we get all of this slopshit out of the way before SEC ball. We arnt even close to how good we can be, so only one way to go. I did like how IJ took over. Someone will have to do it an entire game for us to be competitive...not just for 3/4 minutes.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

I would imagine we won't be 0-12 to start out from 3. Prolly not much better really, but still.

 

[Shmuley]

So, the brunette seated at the courtside table near our bench?

Peters can't quit being suspended apparently

Peters overslept in his room today. Coach told him to just stay home. Peters posted an apology on instragram.
