Make the Free Throws: wtf else is there to say. And for the umpteenth time shot rewarding a teammate with a hand slap, fist bump or whatever after he misses: tell him to make the f'ing shot!

Turnovers. Stop them. We often look like we're about to lose the ball and we're lucky to be able to make an IMPOSSIBLE / IMPLAUSIBLE pass that doesn't connect. Stop it. Learn how to make 10-15 foot shots … and the pass to the Big man will become easier. Now, it's anybodies' guess if we're trying to dribble, split the D, setting up for a 3 ball that no one really is confident in shooting or we just chuck up a shot that is short (imo long is acceptable NEVER short).

Here's hoping we show up, weather the UM storm and pull out a W. How? Don't know , but it will involve EO, Geo, Mathis (needs to get his confidence back), Harper, Kiss, McConnell and reduction in TO's and increase in made FT's...we got a "puncher,s" shot!

Your comment presents lots of ifs and in Rutgers case there are plenty of buts why the ifs aren't corrected.Its a long enduring process .

It’s not just us... MSU was 8-22 from the free throw line in a 4 point loss to Indiana :flushed:

Make or miss, I never liked the fist bump between free throws. Takes you out of focus.
