Almost lost to Boise State and LaLa Lafayette at home; will finally take a well-deserved dive at (YT) Miami. They're so much more terrible than we are. Finally. Bang em if you got em.

If Izzo can't pull them together by then (which seems to be his MO), then they'll be left behind in the dust for a while in this conference.

While I am more than happy to see Sparty choke, Boise State might be better than people think.  They just beat #11 Creighton 83-70, with Derrick Marks scoring 35 in the process.  Then again, had Marks not fouled out against MSU they might have beaten them too.

FROM RCMB:

"The chicken littles are out in force tonight. Look, I wish we looked better right now too. I wish we could go undefeated every hoops season and win a National Championship every single season. Not gonna happen, sorry.

It's effing November, and this team just played four games in 8 days, with a whole lot of minutes minus Trice and Harris. Our season is not over at 5-2, not even close. You'd think at this point Izzo would have earned enough trust with the fanbase to play Gauna at point and not be questioned. The team will be FINE. Little bit of rest and some more practice time, and they will be just fine. So quit bitching about a poor showing on the road in November against a tournament-worthy team.

Izzo will destroy this game tape with a sledgehammer, and the team will go on a tear when it counts."

This is so good!

Also just for good measure...
