Michigan vs MSU basketball game predictions (today)

the moving pick on Schilling

...

Unwatchable refs. Let Schilling shoulder into Brooks but livers called for a weak ass screen.

for doing the same type of screaming thing when he dunked it on State a couple of years ago?

Yeah, I thought so.

Must be nice to have super athletic freaks like that.

If we just play a bit more physical we will win this game.

Down 3 at the half. I'm actually amazed. 

Stoped himself from blocking Shilling knowing it would be a foul.

Refs already decided this one.

despite the bullshit officiating.  JB better give them hell walking off the court.

should be up 6-8 ...6 missed bunnies, horrible fouls..not looking good..out played last 4 mins of half per usual..yet only down 3  UGH!

Nice first half. Too bad refs made it 6 on 5

Down 3 with THAT officiating feels like an accomplishment.  If we can get an even vaguely fair whistle in the second half we can win.

and yet we're only down 3 which is amazing

Izzo sold his soul to the devil for a 3 point lead at home against his main rival. Lol. Good luck not getting caught, lil guy.

...and staying in this, I can’t help but notice how talent deficient we are. I wish JB could recruit better

Theories as to why Tom can't hear in his left ear? Discuss.

time to switch over to Red Wings-Penguins

So fucking tired of getting bent over by the refs. Big ten does absolutely nothing. This game is 90% staee on the 50/50 calls.

Key to the second half is Wagner getting to stay on the floor.  If he gets yet another ticky tack bullshit call in the first four, we're done.

Poor officiating (expected), MSU shooting 57%, UM shooting 36% and we're only down 3??? If you told me all the above I'd think we're down 20.

and still complain about the calls not going his way. Can't set a pick or defend the post without a call. Sparty can hack and grind and it's just good defense. What a joke

1. Officiating a joke. Not surprised, any of you? What is more surprising to me is how little "home cooking" we get at Crisler.

2. Mo came to play. Need to run pick and pop more at top. Make them defend it.

3. Livers showing first signs I remember on O of being out of sinc or rushing stuff. Couple bad plays from the freshman we haven't seen all year.

4. Missed too many opportunities at the rim. Gotta like the fact that only down 3 and we shot 37%ish and they shoot 55%ish.

Gotta stay out of foul trouble on Z and Mo the first 5 minutes of 2nd half.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

needs to step up and help.  he's the damn senior on the team.

I don’t have a strong feeling in our ability to pull this out. I’m not sure why. We are playing well. But it just doesn’t feel great

What makes a Spartan a Spartan? The ability to turn question marks into exclamation marks... Staeee?!?

is a good thing. They are really helping out at both ends without sacrificing back end defense. The difference has been transition scoring and points off TOs. Got to make more shots at the rim when they get there.

a fucking bs call

Weak as fuck

Gotta love this media halftime narrative.

1.) "Is Purdue the biggest threat to Michigan State?"

What a spit in the eye for the game we played earlier this week, its outcome, and the game we're playing against MSU right now.

2.) "MSU 57%FG, UM 37%FG...yet UM only down 3."

We missed bunnies at the rim, which were good shots, and a few of MSU's misses drew fouls (illegitimately) which redact the misses from their field goal total. Ntm, we were leading for almost the entire half up until the 8-2 run that last two minutes.

3.) "Michigan shooting 5-12 3pt"

The classic Beilein cliche, that Michigan is only as good as they shoot 3's. We have only three more made 3's than MSU, so a total of 3 extra points if the shots weren't behind the line.

We're dominating offensive rebounds and the turnover margin, but missed bunnies at the rim. Don't even get me started with the officiating hypocrisy for moving screens and calls under the basket.

Charlie with 2 fts!

Beilein shirt is on point

Outside of the all the BS calls, love how this team is handling the game.  We can hang with anyone in the Big 10.  F sparty, GO BLUE!

We're gonna Shock the World!

M 72 - Staee 65

gets hammered on the 3 attempt but no call, fucking bullshit!

bout time.  he out.

Holy shit. Fucking horrible officiating
