I disagree with your assessment that the team struggled down the stretch, as they finished the season winning 6 of their last 9. They struggled in the month of January when Livers was out with his injuries, going 3-6 in conference play. Losing your top scorer hurts, and it would have been very difficult to be better than a 0.500 team in a very tough conference without one of your key pieces for a large chuck of the season. 7-4 in conference play with healthy Livers and 3-6 without him. I would assume that they would have been much better than 9th place had they not lost their top scorer for nearly half of the conference games.
I was confused with the roughing the passer penalty on Winovich. McSorely made a backwards pass over the head of Barkley, resulting in a McSorely fumble. Chase then hits McSorely. Since McSorely didn't make a forward pass, how can the ref call roughing the passer? What would the correct call be, anything? I thought you could hit the player who fumbled while the ball was still loose. It resulted in at least 25 yards and auto first down on what I believe was a scoring drive.

It's gotta be Jacoby Windmon. Dude has a ton of fight in him.

Give the guy a break. I'm sure MSU has cleared him through multiple Title IX investigations. Nothing to see here.
Maybe Boeheim will piss n moan about banked in threes like Izzo did in his half time interview in the Bucknell game. So far Sparty has 2.

These kinds of endings don't usually happen in our favor. I like this feeling.

Proud of this TEAM. They exceded my expectations and did it with class. Kudos!
9 fouls on Oregon for the entire game. WOW! I didn't see that great of defense.
