But they sure tried to give it away.

What up/down team this is.

For most of the game they played zone. For some reason towards the end of the game they went man to man and the Illini seemed to make shots. They did exactly the same thing against Purdue late

Pathetic.

Slow-footed.

INEXCUSABLE.

Pick any of the above, and you've got my description of the game tonight.

Pete all of the above fits last night

How can a team fighting for a NCAA spot be so not ready to play a game against a poor team like Michigan. I can't remember seeing so many easy wide open points in the paint. This team is really sad when it comes to playing man on man and Tubby keeps them in that defense

Ridiculous effort in a game that should have meant everything to them.
Is this team closer to "getting over the hump", or closer to "sinking into oblivion"?
I'm beginning to doubt what has been going on here.
Michigan was motivated on many fronts, and I could see losing a tight game.
That game was over at the tip-off.

I've never seen a guy wear his emotions on his sleeve so much (and let it affect his play, and his team's play)
Too bad, really, he could have been something.
This squad CAN beat MSU if all goes well. They've dang near done it twice already this year.
Cut down on the mistakes at crucial times, they can win.

Didn't Michigan St just suspend a player? I'm thinking it was a kid named Allen, but not sure

Can't hurt.

I went to the Iowa game last Sunday (free tickets).  Senior day and a festive atmosphere.  It was good to see Johnson and Westbrook play really well on their day of recognition, and Bostick the other senior made a contribution too.  But they were greatly aided by an Iowa squad that is the worst excuse for a big 10 basketball team I've seen in quite a while.  They looked more like a NSIC team.  And an average one at best.  What happened to that program?

Should be an interesting game tonight.  We better show up or they'll embarrass us.  I love the way MSU plays with their physicality and prowess on the boards.

I hate how our idea of protecting a lead is running the clock all the way down and then having a guard fling a blind shot towards the hoop. We must have done it 4 or 5 times.

He's crazy inconsistent. Just awful tonight. Thankfully Iverson had one of the best games of his career.

Big'un for Joseph also.

Congrats to Tubby on another 20-win season. FINALLY knock off M-State.

Unfortunately, I see them at 9-9 in conference, 10-8 at best. They may end up having to win two games in the conference tournament in order to make it to the big one.
