Tom Izzo Excuse Prediction Thread
What will Tiny Tom blame this on? My early candidates:
1. We really thought we would get to play in the middle of the night like Michigan got to.
2. No way to preduct Syrancuse would come with an entirely new defensive set.
3. It's incredibly hard and unfair to have to play away from Breslin.
threw off our mechanics."
I want a green, clean future for my children, so I hope he will now dedicate more time to rehabilitating litterbugs.
Their baseless accusations have been a big distraction for the team
Not really fair to our kids that we had to play so far from home - it was practically a home game for Jim and that's pretty clear when you look at the FT disparity. Our kids played great, they just got lucky. Normally Cassius hits that 50-footer, just rimmed out. We're still the best team in the country. We only lost to 4 teams all year."
You'd be hard pressed to find another coach who has done less with more, than Izzo.
But the rape enabler is probably number 1 in that category
Weird rims
Weird guys
Weird zone
This is so good!!!!
FYS!
Fuck you, Bilas!
Fuck every group thinking turd who followed the herd and picked this flawed team to win it all.
Y'all got Detroit, you know what? SHORT BUS TRIP HOME SUCKERS.
Hahahahahahaha
FUCK YOU SPARTY
played some weird guys tommy. that dog shit team should have been bombed to death by a 4, 5 out offense but you had MB on the wing all day lol
We were a little worn out after a deep run in the B1G tourney, and all the distractions of NYC
It was distractions caused by the press! Reporters who ask questions and report things are to blame!
"We had a lot of distractions all year from the ESPN witch-in, and also, the healing process wasn't over yet so I thought it was really unfair to our players."
Sadly,this is probably pretty close to what Izzo will say.
Michigan epic win. Michigna gets what looks like a pretty good qb commit. OSU loses. Sparty gets humiliated in Detroit. Dare I call it a perfect sports weekend?
Fate wanted to make sure he still got to torment Spartan dreams even after his decommit.
That high powered Cuse offense is just impossible to stop.
Doesn't really matter what the excuses are because this was supposed to be the year and they are gone in the round of 32. LOL. Between this and last night, my upcoming week is off to a VERY good start!!
It was a long bus ride from East Lansing and none of the guys were able to get much sleep because of all the homework they had to do to prepare for classes tomorrow. Also, the crowd was obviously all Wolverine fans who had dressed up in green just to taunt us.
Just want to embed this one more time for posterity.
Conference road games are a bear, but what Butler is doing to Villanova wouldn't happen to MSU or Duke. It's not Nova's resume is better than either of those teams, either. That Nova is No. 1 is an example of a trendy team getting votes. And once you're 1, no one looks closer.

What an incredibly dumbass game to lose, in Detroit, to this trash Syracuse team.
I'm so happy.
Who cares, Sparty tears taste like sunshine on a rainy day !!
Somehow I doubt it's "I gave 25 minutes to a guy who averages 7 and .6 PPG instead of playing my lottery pick."
Seriously, Izzo did a terrible job with this team.
"Syracuse is not an 11 seed"
"It wasn't easy to be sent to Detroit, with all the distractions. It would have been nice to be placed somewhere like, maybe Wichita, but those are the breaks of the game. Our freshmen just weren't ready for all the distractions when going up against a Syracuse team full of seniors."
Couldn't beat the last at large team to make the tourney with 2 alleged lottery picks.

He was gifted a Big Ten regular season championship by facing the league's worst schedule.
FIFY.
no post game press conf coverage BTN?
carter is a zone buster. those 2 pts 2 reb and 2 assists in 23 min is proof of that, right?
Michigan has accomplished far more in the last two years with a fraction of the raw talent that MSU has. Enjoy the tournament from the couch, Sparty. That is if you’ve got any couches left after tonight.
