Moments like this make me wish Coach Sprinkle would let athletes be athletes and run more motion offense then calling a set play every time down the floor. Guards can get to the rim if KSU’s bigs are drawn out more.

This is exactly the type of game MSU needed to have a chance. Just need to hit some more shots. Raequan shouldn't leave the court in the second half until the buzzer sounds or he fouls out. Competing well, proud of the effort so far if the execution isn't there! Jubrile has to be hurt, right?

We’re pressing and it’s showing. I would make the guards penetrate and dish out or to the bigs. We got there on the backs of the bigs, make them play the same game they’re dictating to us. Battle is on fire. IF we get one more scorer we’re there at the end. If not,…………

Damn right! We just don't have the bench they do. I was surprised to see Great start. Can't wait to see what Sprinkle has them do this half.

Keep it close and drag them into deep water. Take care of the ball, tie our shoes tight, a couple good shots, a couple lucky breaks and we are in this game.

It all comes down to making some outside shots. If we can't, we're in trouble. Thank goodness for Great, Belo has totally disappeared. He didn't even get a rebound.

Great perspective. They hit a miracle three and we go sideways from the stripe and yet only down six.

And the lead finally gets to double digits because we can't hit shots. Wide open look by Brown is a perfect example. Gotta dig deep to stay in this now.

Brown, Ford and Osobar kept the Cats in it with Battle on the bench. Down 6 at half, with as poorly as they played, should give them hope. RaeQuan can get whatever he wants shot wise, just needs to stay aggressive. Patterson, Lecholat , so hard to watch those 2. ugh! Go Cats! Loosen up!

Negative. It's crazy how many of these are wide open looks too.

Patterson with a near airball. Glad he's back in. Come on Danny. Try anyone else
