41 points in the 1st half at the Breslin Center and losing should not be an option.

BU is known for making adjustments to his offense during a season, what are the odds he can do the same defensively?
Couldn’t stop their offense there. Let’s hope they cool off after half.
No choice, unless he wanted to watch us dig a further hole
Dont get me wrong, I’d rather be up, but I’ll take being down the 3 pts the refs screwed us in that half with sparty playing out of their mind. Second half has got to be about defense.
He got past his guy for a wide open layup... Him not taking shots like that means he should never be taking a shot. It was an extremely high quality shot, just needs to make the layup.
Yeah constantly picking on Goode/Dain in pnr Coleman down low
Just having Coleman back will do that, IMO
Hopefully they don't call #3 on him in the 1st 2nd half minute.
Wouldn't surprise me with this crew, though.
Its certainly more fun to watch than coaches yelling at refs, yet here we are.

Not picking on you, but motion to stop saying this every game. We have to accept our defense has sucked.
Crazy thing is comparing us now vs. Brad's other teams, blows my mind we are near dead last in TO% in all of D1.
Zero pressure

We need to accept that Illinois is going to get every teams best effort now. They all know our B1G record for the last 4 years.
They are all coming for us.

That missed goal-tending call is WILD. If you can review at timeouts if a shot was a 2 or a 3, I think you should be able to review clear goal-tending calls. As in, if the question is whether it was touched after it hit the backboard. Review rule needs added for that, I think.
I can't believe nobody saw that live though.

Michigan State is 57% from the field, 66% from 3, 83% on FT, and only up 3...
Domask should be inside of the three point line getting in booty ball position while Ty brings the ball up quickly while being unguarded (assuming Cooper is not going to try to pressure him…). It would get us into offense 3-4 seconds earlier.
Our defensive puts more pressure on our offense than it does the opponent's.

Too much switching.
Just as a comparison, when we played these guys last month at home, we were up 37-34 at half.

Took their best shot and only down 3 at the half. Let’s give Izzo an aneurysm in the second half
Also very few of our guys can hang with smaller faster guards
MSU also had 6 fouls with what 13 and change left in first half and we did nothing to take advantage of it. The refs did nothing to screw us.
