Vandy game thread

[BirdPuppy]

Teams are just going to start grabbing Tolu as soon as he gets position down low and force him to make free throws. He shoots them worse than Shaq.

Looks like thats the play for the last 3:17.

 

[thekimmer]

We do not look good

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Is it just me or do we struggle significantly with bringing rebounds all the way down? It’s like we go up and have the ball in the air, but by the time we come down, the ball goes goes flying

I guess they don’t teach rebounding anymore

 

[FlotownDawg]

Tolu has stepped up and hit 5-6 since they started fouling him intentionally.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

It’s not just Tolu. Our entire team can’t hit a freethrow. It’s gotta be a mental thing.

Probably a lack of practice thing.

 

[BirdPuppy]

Fort 0 minutes 2H? Nauseating.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Fort 0 minutes 2H? Nauseating.

He will get Hubbard’s minutes next year if he doesn’t transfer out

 

[WilCoDawg]

Is it just my tv or does this broadcast have the announcers volume lower than the crowd noise. Now, I realize there was a previous discussion of how the crowd noise seemed to be lower in previous games.
I know I shouldn’t complain not being able to hear Cross.

Line was MSU -13.5

This game is close to a must win.

Vegas is incredible.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Anyone who had State covering the 13.5 is throwing things through their TV right now

That last basket can suck my nut sack

 

[ZombieKissinger]

One concern. Tolu has ZERO rebounds. Bell has seven. Tolu has got to get on the boards more.

Turned it around in the second half w/ 11

 

[BirdPuppy]

Me and you both. Had -13 though.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Tolu finished with 25 points and 11 rebounds. All 11 rebounds were in the second half.

 

[Baddog11]

And here I was thinking all the booing at the end was because we were lackadaisically lazy getting back and gave them an easy lay-up.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Actually, according to my ESPN app, the line closed at 12.5. So we covered!

 

[MSUDC11-2.0]

And here I was thinking all the booing at the end was because we were lackadaisically lazy getting back and gave them an easy lay-up.

It was a little bit of bad sport by Vandy. We had called off the dogs and that last lay up was a little cheap.

There are a LOT safer bets out there than ever betting on an MSU athletic team to cover a spread. Anyone who is a lifelong MSU fans should surely know that.

The volume was much higher which I prefer. The Bama game sounded like there were about 50 people there.

This team is trash. Should have won by 14. Pathetic.

Ok good. I'm glad it wasn’t my tv. I am noticing that there’s a huge difference between our broadcast and other broadcasts though. Watching UK/UGA game, I can clearly hear the announcers AND the amped up crowd.

I know! If our lazy, pathetic thugs with neck tattoos had gotten back on defense with 3 seconds left, Vandy wouldn’t have gotten that last important layup that made it a very close 13-point win. ******

Nope.

I still don't understand why they moved the team benches to the camera side. Can't see them on TV. Or did they move the cameras during the renovation?

This is the only problem I have with the renovations. I loved being able to watch the coaches and the bench during play.

They moved the benches.

My thoughts after watching the game.

1 That was an ugly game. But never in any doubt after midway through the 1st half.

2 We are very limited offensively.

3 The Tolu vs Bell comments in this thread are bizarre. Tolu is a 1st team SEC player. Bell is a role player.

Agree with your assessment. We got up big and did just enough the rest of the way to keep Vandy at arm’s length. Free throws again were a problem. Tolu was 2-8 at one point and had to make five of his last six to just get back to over 50%. If Hubbard isn’t hitting shots, we are in trouble offensively. Fort hit a couple big threes in his limited minutes. Will need more out of him in that regard.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Now thar we are the Tennessee state champs, when will the banner ceremony be?

Betting on MSU Sports is off the scale stupid. Just send that money to NIL

 

[PhiDawg]

Is this team still trash?

 

[Maroon13]

They moved the benches because they created the student pit on that side. Can't have students behind opponents bench or so I heard.
