With a little luck, Payne will have another altercation with a table. /s
MSU shot 66% in 1st half, Wiscy 28%.
It's looking more and more like Michigan's going to have a shot at Jeri Ryan tomorrow.
That's right. 7 of 9.
Wow. Props.
I've been sitting on that one hoping I'd have a chance to pull it out this year.
Double
Sparty, come out to plaaaaay...............
Looking like their rounding into typical March form.
Wiscy certainly isn't done but I like M getting a firmer hold on a potential one seed.
Wiscy is susceptible up the middle and staee is fairly athletic, certainly more so that staee. Unless things change, I can't see Wiscy coming back.

I cannot stand Doug Gottlieb.
Apparently, the TV Guy consensus is that State will win the national championship. Amazing where half of a game and Izzo hype will take you
Did anyone else see this CWebb BK commercial? Interesting he's representing the fake U of M jersey while trying to "distance himself" from anything Fab 5 related.
The big 7'er going to work now. Can make this game interesting if MSU starts getting into foul trouble.
Please do that tomorrow as well
Floor Slap! Please go on a run Wisky
Good job of Sparty lowering their defensive PPP when slapping the floor there. Fouling can only bring down their 2.4 defensive PPP. Idiots.
Man, even though MSU looks good right now, Wisco still scares me more for some reason. Probably shell shock from recent memories.
CBS giving a serious BJ to MSU right now. "I dont think there are four better teams in the country - when healthy - that are better than MSU". Good grief shut up. They've been healthy enough that they can't make these dumb excuses
So sick of these fucking announcers. I hope we do get another shot at State. Let's shut their fucking mouths.
Whoever the #1 is that draws MSU as a #4 or whatever, is really going to be unhappy with life . . .
MSU shooting 61.5% thru 3/4 of game
'Adreian's Payne: Learning to Read'
*reed
Downtown!!!!! holy shit.
They are right about the experience thing with MSU - most high rated 5 stars are gone post sophomore year so MSU has experience most teams don't due to slow development. Most 5 stars go to the NBA after 2 years. MSU retains them forever... Dawson and Payne lol... Appling was a HS All American to boot. Payne is a 23 year old 5 star - big men are a premium. Compare to Vonleh who is a top 10 mock draft guy after 1 year in NCAA.
Only Gary Harris is someone on a normal path for a high end 5 star. Izzo spends the first 2 years breaking down players and then trying to rebuild them back up in their jr and sr year - that calendar is not working for most high end recruits now. Harris is one guy he never did try to break down.
Wisconsin scares me more than MSU. Good to see Sparty putting the beat down.
Michigan has a better chance of bashing Staee than Wisconsin, who has actually beaten Michigan
I might agree normally, but you've got to think Sparty is itching for a rematch and will be jacked sky-high.
MSU is hitting almost 60 percent of their shots, including 3's. How likely are they to shoot the same way tomorrow?
Not at all
If that's a blocking foul, I'm Barack Obama.
If that's not a charge then there is no more charge call
Both Wiscy and MSU are really working....could help us tomorrow. Wishful thinking?
we had the same tough physical game. Wont matter.
So even if MSU is healthy, we'd have had more time to rest.
Poor Izzo. Life is so unfair.
It amazes me how the offensive player can push off and bump and get the call now.
Or are they just doing a Sparty rah-rah informercial. These guys are unbelievable.
Izzo may need a BeatsPill suppository if this game gets any closer.
Rooting for a triple overtime game
Wisconsin is clawing away. Should be a good finish.
to make up for it. Do you think that's fair?
Think it's going to be too little too late for Wisconsin. Hope I'm wrong.
Counted 10 references to injuries for Sparty so far....over under was 14...
Kaminsky is a beast
Wisconsin just can't get a stop. Oh wait they did, and then fouled.
We have state supremacy right now. I don't like Sparty getting a shot at putting a dent in it. We'd have less to lose against Wisconsin.
More to gain against MSU. Shut them down tomorrow and they'll go full-on meltdown.
But the officials will be against them, just as Delaney ordered. Their chemistry is screwed up by all those guys returning from injury, too.
What injuries?
