Matthews bringing the attitude
SIAP but I tried a search.
Please tell me someone else saw/heard Matthews at the 8:22 point in the 2nd half after Paschall drove the lane on Iggy. Iggy gives ground, gets the foul and hits the floor under the basket. Matthews comes over to pick him up and then turns to him and says, while extending his forearm, "You gotta push that m*****f***** back!"
He's bringing the same dog attitude that he gave Ward in EL last season. It seems to permeate the team: Iggy right in Paschall's grill after the Simpson dust up, the pregame shoot around showdown, the overall aggressiveness on D and the boards. Not sure if the trigger was Morgan from Illinois or Zach going postal in the huddle years ago in EL. but every year now, we've got toughness to go with our talent.

We just need an athlete from the Chicago area to light our inner fire!

I think this M team (CM and Z/X esp) got into Nova's haeads pre-game. They showed a minor scuffle about M warming up early or at Nova's end initially. I have no doubt that got Nova off their game and trying to play heroball in the 1st half, doesn't work, gets them frustrated and Nova went off the rails at that point. I like it.

Charles Matthews should come out for the MSU pregame warm ups with some grills on and give Ward a big grin!

it coincided with Donnal leaving.. my goodness you could see how soft he was...
Now Matthews seems to be the top dog, and I'm loving it all. This team is very good...
