..and Nova plays the same way.

They shoot a lot of threes... but not really

[Its DJOver]

Gotta find a lineup where we don't get exploited on switches defensively. I'm thinking Markus, Sacar, Brendan, Sam and Joey.  As long as Keita isn't in, you should be able to switch everything.

[muguru]

My Lord. What mid major will be as talented and athletic as SJU?

It looks like we're gonna lose this game. We might come back but I'd guess we don't. We'll still be fine.

No..top 10 teams don't lose at home..period. this would be a HORRIBLE loss..spin it anyway you want

I have not seen many sju games this year but they look so good when we play them i cant understand how they have as many losses as they do

This is one of the dumbest posts you've authored in a long string of stupid posts.

Agree. Then puts way too much pressure on the nova game.  If we lose that one its back to reality. Just happy to make the tourney once again

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Falling in love with the three too much. Gotta attack and keep racking up fouls on SJU.

Joey and Theo guarding on the perimeter is difficult to watch.

If we hit shots that we normally make, we are winning or down 1.

Long game, looking forward to a better 2nd half

Michigan St. begs to differ

Michigan State was top 5 just a few days ago and lost at home.

But........

Must have missed MSU losing to Indiana literally 3 days ago

I actually thought it was sarcastic til I saw who said it

[Johnny B]

MSU about to lose to sub.500 Illinois

[SaveOD238]

Ayo Dosunmu and Illinois trying help us by knocking off Michigan State.  Up 6 under a minute left.

[nyg]

They've hit some tough shots but they're shots from inside of 3'. They're getting to the paint waaaaaay to easily

Simon is 5 of 6, all short ones/layups.  Heron hit three threes to start.  They did nothing from three after.

Their bench scored 2 points with Heron, Clarke and Figeruroa playing about half of the half.  Yet, up 10.  Again, yikes. 

MU 7 turnovers killed them, believe leading to 13 points.  Simon just a bad matchup for Markus, very bad.

Msu is without langford though

As I've said 10 times already.

I don't get why we won't post

Come out and punch these dudes in the mouth

Simon has hit some stupid running floaters

[#UnleashSean]

Very cold. But markus has gone off in the 2nd half after a bad first multiple times this season. I'm predicting a 41 point game from him.

St John's got some serious foul trouble. Not the worst position to be in if your Marquette.

[PGsHeroes32]

Msu is without langford though

They have been for over a month

[PGsHeroes32]

Great inbounds

#2 Duke lost to unranked Syracuse at home
#8 North Carolina lost to unranked Louisville by 21 at home
#9 Michigan State lost to unranked Indiana at home

So 3/19 of the current top 10 team have lost at home. And all of them to unranked opponents!
