Game Thread: Penn State vs. Northwestern

[Hungry Jack]

Some sketchy calls against us

You can probably hear me giving it to the zebras

 

[catfans5]

Whe you are at the game, you can see the little stuff Barnhizer does, Box out, help defense and barks out defense commands. He is a real leader.

Smith is in from what I see is that he has some height. May grasp the defense better. He is very similar in body type to PSU.

Off the ball, PSU is very grabby. Lots of holding.

Give them the business for us!!!

 

[PurpleWhiteBoy]

We could play Preston and Hunger together and kill them on the offensive glass as "Lineup #2"

Or play a walk-on and a freshman against Ace Baldwin.

 

[catfans5]

Mullins is the same height as Clayton.

 

[ballerog711]

OK Boo show Dickie V. Why you should be an All-American

 

[ballerog711]

Hunger can't drive and score against slow foot 5s, what's going to do against a 4

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

We could play Preston and Hunger together and kill them on the offensive glass as "Lineup #2"

Or play a walk-on and a freshman against Ace Baldwin.

PSU would score at will will both of them in.

I can’t say for sure that you are wrong, but this is evidence-free wishful thinking.

 

[SDakaGordie]

PSU would score at will will both of them in.

And they would score on the fast break at will.

Cats are definitely off their rhythm and keep getting in each others way. Not sure what’s going on.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Pathetic refereeing. No other word.

 

[Hungry Jack]

Pathetic refereeing. No other word.

I’m getting hoarse

 

[catfans5]

Matt and Hunger are really doing a great job on boxing out on the defensive backboard!

 

[its_the_sauce]

Pathetic refereeing. No other word.

The block against Layton was absurd

 

[SmellyCat]

Boo was just toying with them on that last play.

And you know, where was the foul call on that one? Seemed the refs were faked out too.

 

[Username Not Available]

Yes they are. It’s so nice to see.

Boo ate a forearm on that last play. I hope he’s ok.

 

[SDakaGordie]

The block against Layton was absurd

Ok - that adjective works too.

 

[TheC]

So does 22 never foul? Is that what these awful refs want us to believe??

 

[ballerog711]

MN got the crap beat out of on that one

 

[TheC]

These refs are just unreal

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Boo was absolutely mugged there, no call. Thankfully we somehow got the ball back.

 

[TheC]

Kerns has 4 fouls. Target him! He's been their best offensive weapon today.

 

[Username Not Available]

Cats shooting seems abysmal. I haven’t checked the box score, but we’re really struggling to make open shots today.

 

[ballerog711]

Gotta make shots, getting good looks. Hunger set a couple of nice screens.

Make those free throws as well.

 

[TheC]

So it was a block but can they call the guy who hammered Nick in the head!

 

[ballerog711]

Those two would have made a 3 pisession game with 130 left, bad misses

 

[TheC]

Why do we miss so many clutch free throws???

 

[ballerog711]

Made up for it with that steal and dunk.

 

[TheC]

Must make free throws now

 

[Username Not Available]

Gotta get it over half court and then it’s free throw time.

 

[catfans5]

5 in double figures.

Barnhizer has not come out all game.

 

[SmellyCat]

What must it be like for Nicholson when he sees he has a clean path to a thunderous dunk? If he could bottle that up and sell it, I would spend at least $11 on that.

 

[Hungry Jack]

Our team has lots of balls

 

[Username Not Available]

A lot of these official reviews seem to go against us. Let’s hope we get this one.

 

[SDakaGordie]

So it was a block but can they call the guy who hammered Nick in the head!

That phantom block on Barnhizer was a doozy as well.

 

[TheC]

The free throws simply aren't good for my health!

 

[PURPLECAT88]

40 minutes of action coming back to haunt Brooks at the line.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Fingers taped or not, why the heck can’t Barnhizer make free throws?

 

[GatoLouco]

I really admire the resilience of a team that has a day where offense is struggling, but finds a way to win.
