***Offical NCAAT vs Liberty Game Thread***

[Msubulldogfan1]

Looks like some nerves early for both teams. Q looking good.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Officials in our favor right now, missed travel on Peters and Ado foul...and bail peters out on a 1v4. Ill take it.

 

[DAWGS1.sixpack]

THREE missed layups, 2 weren’t even contested.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Ado with a reach in foul 30ft from the basket.

 

[DAWGS1.sixpack]

What a stupid foul by Ado

 

[BoDawg.sixpack]

And here comes Holman launching.

 

[Lawdawg.sixpack]

STOP SHOOTING THREES..

Except for you, Q.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Bad Holman so far...then Great Pass Holman!

 

[dawgman42]

Not on that pass.

 

[DAWGS1.sixpack]

Nice pass and assist for Holman tho.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Beautiful pass by Holman and finish by Woodard. I still feel like we are very nervous.

 

[BoDawg.sixpack]

Keep pounding it inside. They're too small to stop us.

 

[mstateglfr]

And here comes Holman launching.

43% from deep for the year = green light

 

[dawgman42]

Wow, a Feazell sighting this early.

 

[mstateglfr]

Feazell sighting

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Feazell sighting

And looks lost. He needs to go.

 

[SirBarksalot]

How many point blank shots have we missed..geez

 

[Lawdawg.sixpack]

They're too small to stop us.

^^^ this. We missed 3 easy ones to start the game, should’ve been 10-0. NO REASON not to pound the post here

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Howlinz needs to forget about him like he was Woodard

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

How many point blank shots have we missed..geez

6 so far.

 

[vandaldawg]

Bout the same as we usually do. Way too many.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Our defense has not set up yet. Howland needs to figure this **** out quick.

 

[1msucub]

Sigh. Sleepwalking AGAIN.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

I’m still lost at Feazell playing...dudes played probably 1 minute that was garbage time after Nick got shelved, and we put him in early first game of the tournament? That’s beyond me.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Ado is nice in person. He’s weak af on the court.

 

[Dawg1976]

Hard to watch.

 

[maroonmania]

Surprised that they are outperforming us on the boards.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

They will slow down on these 3's when the second half gets going and those sphincters start tightening.

 

[fishwater99]

Holman has got to play some damn defense v

 

[SyonaraStanz]

Our 3 point defense is embarrassing.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Peters, Q and Woodard showed up... rest of team no show

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

I’ll take a 2 point lead. Make some adjustments and blow em out this 2nd half.

 

[Drewbowski]

Size advantage is all I came up with

 

[BoDawg.sixpack]

Duke only up 4 over NDSU at the half.

 

[Drewbowski]

That one handed dunk from Woodard was the prettiest MSU bball moment all year

 

[jakldawg]

Just for clarity...theirs or ours?

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

DEFENSE.

Clear and simple. We usually play defense well for one half and if we keep it close, we usually win.

In spite of all those 3's we got the lead before halftime.

Howland adjusts, we beat these guys by 15 at least.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

That one handed dunk from Woodard was the prettiest MSU bball moment all year

That two-handled slam from Q was pretty nasty as well.

 

[BoDawg.sixpack]

Considering Perry didn't even score in the first half I'd say we're in decent shape.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

This liberty team is annoying af.

We give up too many open looks helping off the wrong guys.
