..we're gonna need to play the best half of basketball we've played all season to win this one. And what are the odds we can do that after playing the worst half we've played all season?

I haven't
I haven't
Bitched about refs for any of our road games yet. I've always figured it was part of the game on the road. This however is absolute horseshit. This is the worst officiating job I have seen. It's usually a call here or there. This is blatant bad calls and all one way

This is an ads kicking. Refs had nothing to do with it. We should play tougher.

Bad line up. Horrible effort. Bad fundamentals. Looks like we were beaten. Need to show some Heath second half. Can do it but it looks so so bad.

Well, this could be going better.
I'm oddly comforted by Hoke's presence, however.
It is evident he does not approve.

effort I have seen all season... It's their choice to come back and play like a damn team or they can let us fans down who have been there for them through all of their ups and downs.
2013 will be the year.

Izzo is only 19-11 against UM
Izzo is only 19-11 against UM
That's not that impressive considering the Ellerbe/Amaker years.
Then again, looks like it will be 20-11 pretty soon.

This team is soft
This team is soft
I don't know how anyone can deny that. How in the world can you get into this arena tonight and not be up to the task. Most of our players are not. Soft is the key word for this team.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:59 PM |
Yep
Yep
Soft physically (see: the last minute of that half), soft mentally (see: all of our road losses). They just get outworked and outhustled.
Inspiring haters to hate since 1817.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:55 PM |
When

You have no post threat and you rely solely on jump shooting, you'll never have consistency because its easier to defend and shooters are streaky. Defensively we haven't been good in a few weeks.

Fuck it. Belien needs to do

Fuck it. Belien needs to do the war rebounding drill that Izzo does. Our defense and rebounding is beyond atrocious and if we don't watch it this game could get pretty ugly.

These guys need someone to
These guys need someone to
These guys need someone to yell in their damn ears at halftime. Seems to me that no one on the coaching staff can do that. Pathetic first half and I hope to God they come out a totally different team in the second half.

Helps turn bad defense into good defense, great. But yelling is highly overrated and most good coaches don't have to do much of it.

SICK of hearing that. I
SICK of hearing that. I
SICK of hearing that. I wasnt super talented at my sport but ALWAYS played my behind off and always brought defense to my game. Even when offense lacked. It doesnt matter what age you are - people either have that drive to play defense or not. I coached many teams since and some kids do it and have that internal drive and some dont. Whether 6 years old, 11 or 18 yrs old.

Well, State is shooting out
Well, State is shooting out
Well, State is shooting out of their mind also. They haven't made a ton of open shots, most of them are contested, they're just going in. If we get any closer to them, the refs blow the whistle.
HAIL.

It's ok guys. After the loss to Wisconsin they all sat around and mentioned one thing they could do better. So, they're all set now. You can tell that lit a fire under them.
