Izzo already working the officials (Steratore).
Sparty turning the ball over A LOT.
January 14th, 2016 at 7:31 PM ^
Jim Calhoun as the color guy tonight. It's weird..I don't know that he knows what the hell he's doing.
January 14th, 2016 at 7:31 PM ^
Sparty as a whole looks stoned...can't even catch and dribble the ball.

A lot of basketball teams wear Jumpman uniforms. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason behind why certain schools have them. What's noteworthy about us is that we'll be the first football team to wear them.

Iowa will be a tough battle on sunday. Seems like they have decent big men.

It's the biggest game in the Big 10 on an otherwise sports-barren Thursday. Our next game is against Iowa. Why not have a thread about it?
January 14th, 2016 at 7:45 PM ^
but alas, it's not looking like it'll be enough

Didn't ask for your participation so go away.
It's a highly rated baskeball game against common, one this weekend, opponents. This isn't a new thing around here.
Good night, Willis.

on this earth and one thing I have learned, you can't please everyone. Upvoting, downvoting, whatevs.
January 14th, 2016 at 7:46 PM ^
because it's a big big ten game that affects the race for the big ten title?
January 14th, 2016 at 8:39 PM ^
Aren't all B1G games featuring at least one team seeded within 3 games of first place?
January 14th, 2016 at 7:44 PM ^
So we need Iowa to win so that they won't be laser focused for us on Sunday and hopefully be overconfident

Wow, just checked the score. Iowa didn't seem like anything special in the nonconference season (3 losses), but in league play they've been fantastic. Did they get someone back from injury?
January 14th, 2016 at 7:49 PM ^
Nope, just really playing well as of late.
Their non-conference may not look the best but don't forget they really should have won at Iowa State (who yes, has been stumbling as of late)...they were up huge, Uthoff had 31 pts in the 1st halft, and they pissed it away the last 10 minutes.

Iowa jumpshooting like a 40-and-over YMCA team.
January 14th, 2016 at 7:53 PM ^
40 and over guys at the Y shoot well I take it?

Who thought Calhoun would make a good color guy? He's putting me to sleep.

MSU has 14 turnovers?!? That's embarrassing.

There is something quintessentially Iowa basketball about some kid named Peter Jok having a rather nice game indeed right now - 19 points including 3 of 4 from outside, making for a personal effective FG% of almost 94% for him personally right now. Iowa's collective effective FG% is 65.15% right now.
