MSU second half open thread
Let's hope for a strong second half showing to close the gap.

It's been the same problem in every one of our losses...dominated inside.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:21 PM ^
I've never seen us this bad. That includes the years we sucked.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:22 PM ^
Fucking A, I don't care, send me to Bolivia, but how this team is playing is fucking disgraceful. Each and every one of them. You seriously can't get yourself up to play well against your fucking biggest rival in a top 10 matchup? They're all playing like fucking dumbasses, and John Beilien should be popping a damn vein right now. And end all this BS talk about GR3 going to the draft, kid plays like shit anytime a player with half an iota of talent is lined up against him. Fuck this team, fuck losing to Sparty again. I hope there is a special edition of TWIS just for this game, because all shit we get from Sparty is completely deserved. We are getting our fucking asses handed to us. The fact that we play this shitty on the road is astounding. Oh, so peopla are yelling and screaming, so now you can't even complete a fucking pass? Boo hoo, and nut up. These guys come here for no money to play at Michigan, fucking play well.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:23 PM ^
Fuck this shit, fuck this shit, fuck this shit, fuck this team. Fuck Sparty, but fuck this team more for getting our asses handed to us. If I see any of these morons on campus they'll know my opinion about this game.
Where's the god damn booze.

We might've played better in 2000 when Sparty beat us 114-63.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:22 PM ^
McGary must have 6 of our 9 turnovers. Oh well though... at least he's trying.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:39 PM ^
AT least he works hard unlike some of his teammates. His passing is quite awful though. But I like him overall. Only frosh who has shown up on every road game.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:23 PM ^
Max Bielfeldt with a finish?
February 12th, 2013 at 10:23 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:23 PM ^
? THJ was set for 3 seconds...

Would love to see how sparty does playing every top team on the road, before getting the rematch at home. Schedule did not allow this team any chance !!!!
IU plays Purdue and Nebraska next .... WTF. Sparty lost at Illinois & Minnesota. They beat Wisconsin - but Wisconsin didn't hit a half court shot (which would have beat them.
Fuck you B1G schedulers !!!
February 12th, 2013 at 10:24 PM ^
My frustration level is pushing me toward the beer.

Z-O-N-E
February 12th, 2013 at 10:24 PM ^
Wisconsin game: Choke
MSU game: Joke
This team needs a huge kick in the arse, unfortunately Zack Novak ain't walking through that door anytime soon.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:25 PM ^
A true test of how broken this team is will be if we fail to win by 15+ and convincingly at home vs. PSU next.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:40 PM ^
beating horrid teams at home does nothing for this teams chances to advance when it matters.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:25 PM ^
Up by 20 and pissed about fouls being called on them.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:26 PM ^
I am rather amazed with Staee's shooting tonight.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:26 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:27 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:27 PM ^
Sometimes we just sorta stink.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:27 PM ^
It would be cool if our team, like, actually tried harder.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:27 PM ^
The refs are not a 20 point difference in this game. That's a lame excuse for the whooping that is taking place due to turnovers and just sloppy play.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:29 PM ^
agree but if you are going to do this you have to call it both ways, we would still be down 10 but you cant call it seperate ways.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:32 PM ^
The refs have not been bad at all...not even close to a 10 point advantage
February 12th, 2013 at 10:27 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:31 PM ^
you can't win the tourney when you don't even fucking care
February 12th, 2013 at 10:31 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:28 PM ^
For as much youth and inexperience this team has, the scheduling did us no favors. Not an excuse, but if these big road games were more spread out it wouldn't feel like such a downward spiral.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:28 PM ^
In Europe that is...
And which of our players will be the best in the pros?
in the CBA that is...

Might as well get a screenshot of Horford shrugging and caption it ''I don't know what I'm doing'' or something.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:29 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:29 PM ^
Nobody thinks that the refs account for a 20 point deficit, but we haven't gotten anything tonight. That Burke 3rd foul was atrocious.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:34 PM ^
We haven't done anything to get a call...our team doesn't drive so how are they gonna get a call? The burke call wasn't even important AT ALL.
February 12th, 2013 at 11:09 PM ^
But a number were blaming the refs for at least 19 points earlier on this board. The refs played zero role in the outcome of this game. Everyone here piled on LaVeon Bell for his comments about the refs screwing them because they were unfounded just as blaming the refs for not breaking 50 until MSU sent the walkons in is unfounded.
Bad game by Michigan and a great game by State is why this was a slaughter.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:29 PM ^
I thought i could come here for comfort... i was wrong.
February 12th, 2013 at 10:29 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:29 PM ^
February 12th, 2013 at 10:37 PM ^
I was wondering when the "we are still a year or two away" comments would show up.

Has any team regressed more than Michigan since the beginning of the season? Comparing one of their games from early on to one of the games now is scary. Meanwhile MSU has improved a ton. All of the other top Big Ten teams seem to be improving (OSU, MSU, Wisconsin, Indiana) while Michigan looks worse and worse every outing. Beilein needs to step up.
