To beat on the talent some more, while I don't think we have the elite talent this board does, I think we have some pretty good players, players capable of beating Kentucky at home. Stans' teams, and MSU teams in general, have a tendency to do nothing when something is expected and doing something when nothing is expected.

we aren't used to playing hard for 40 minutes. It bites us every time.

Once he blows past Dee on a ball screen, and Sidney et al. watch him cut to the basket he will be able to finger roll his patented "please reject me" layup in for a nice score. At this point my head may explode.

And it will show you people we actually HAVE talent to compete vs the elite teams. We just lack the leadership @ HC.

It will be in a blowout in which you will have either:

1: stopped watching (probable)
2: gotten so elated you won't care

Unfortunately games last 40 minutes . We will take a lead early,something like 7-2, then Kentucky will take a lead they wont relinquish mid way through the first half. It will be a Kentucky lead between 4-8 points until about 10 minutes to play.

Then Sidney will get beat down the floor and Anthony Davis will dunk on top of him. Dee will throw up a couple of desperation 3s. Rodney Hood will hit his freshman wall again, a brick wall (pun intended) . Steele and Bryant will let their guys drive easily into the lane, Sidney wont provide any helpside defense, and we give up a couple of easy buckets. Rick wont call a timeout because he doesnt likes to use them. Then Moultrie wont get a call he was probably fouled on and stans will get T'ed up. Our fans throw things on the court circa 2010. Brad Nessler and Jimmy Dykes take a shot at our fan support and how we need to be more respectful. We lose 82-68 and this board blows up with Fire Stans posts. Rinse and repeat.

when Bost, Hood, Sid, and Moultrie are all on the floor together. If those four stay out of foul trouble and we play a little defencewe will get beat by 10-15. If they don't it will be ugly. The only way it is any better is if one or more likely two of our guys just go off from behind the arc and UK has a sub par game. The talent in depth difference is just too great.

When you don't play like this all the time you end up too worn out in the second half and a team as good as Kentucky will go on a 20 to 4 run at the end of the game.
