The Bobcat Nation

Go Bobcats!!!

Yes, let's get win number 23 today. Nothing easy about beating an experienced team like UNC who has a dangerous backcourt trio of Matt Johnson, Dalton Knecht and Daylen Kountz.

I'd love to see the Cats make a statement tonight and dominate this game. With EWU out, the title is ours for the taking!

Even though RaeQuan is dead cold, Fuller is on fire and the Cats are up by 17 with 3 to go in the first half. “Fuller is hotter than a cheap pistol today”!

Cats 47 little bears 24 at half!

Sheesh, where has this Caleb Fuller been the last couple weeks? He hasn't even been close on his outside shots lately. We'll take it though!

Been enjoying Cravens' announcing. Comes up with some good ones. "Hotter than a Texas parking lot." "He's a great referee. He called my first technical on me when I was coaching."

Last 6 minutes, and the game is in hand, but I’d like a cleaner finish to the 2nd half.

I’d like us to get a stop in the last couple minutes. The bears are just taking it to the rim.

UNC can’t miss and MSU can’t buy a bucket.

Why must we do this.

Certainly not the way you wanted this one to end. Would have preferred to see the deep end of the bench finish out the last 3:00 or so.

Ditto

The Cats had this game in hand throughout, but UNC has some players and they fought hard in the 2nd half. A nice win, that though at times a bit sloppy ended up being a comfortable W. Onto the semi’s!

It wouldn't be a Bobcat basketball game if they didn't find a way to make us just a tiny bit nervous there towards the end! On to the semis nonetheless, happy that the fans who traveled to Boise didn't get stuck with two one-and-dones.

Danny Sprinkle is now 6-1 in the Big Sky tournament after MSU amassed a whopping 3 total tournament wins in the 20 seasons between his graduation and return as head coach.

Great win, Cats! Congratulations!

Would love, however, to see the Cats carry their momentum through all the way to the end of the game. This game and the last game of the season against Eastern, the Cats played aggressively until about the 7 minute mark of the game, then slowed it down. Both times they let the opposition get back into it. Anyway, just my opinion.

Go, Cats!

It's all that matters in March. Just win, survive and advance.

I second this!!
The boys are 32 games into the season at this point and have yet to put 2 consecutive halves of basketball together. If they play the same brand of basketball in the 2nd half as they did in the 1st were talking about potentially holding the record for biggest blowout in tournament history. I want to see that team. Hopefully we get to see soon. 23-9 and this team still hasn’t peaked…
