MU/ND Game Thread

Oso has a double double in the 1st half?  Whoa

Whoa indeed. Would not have guessed

[tower912]

Damn.  That's a shot Ross should knock down.  Up 5 but probably should be up 11-13.

That is a shot that Ross, Stevie, OMP, Jop, TK should all knock down.   

[CountryRoads]

Sounds like a morgue there.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

If MU could shoot, they'd be up by double digits.

ND's talent level looks worse than MU

Blow me a-hole

[GoldenEagles03]

Ross and Stevie each 0-1, Stevie also 0-1 from the FT line and neither made any major impact plays defensively.  One of them will have to produce in the 2nd half.  I'll choose to be excited about the opportunity to win rather than anxious with the feeling of letdown upcoming.

I trust their effort.  Gotta lock in!

might be the nicest thing youve said about MU this year

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Wear them down. Four guys with 2 fouls each.

[nyg]

Two front end misses on free throws, plus two other misses.
At least three layups missed
Started jacking threes at end, now 2 for 9 from three.

All with some ND starters on bench in foul trouble, along with Omax.  Should have taken advantage of the foul issues and MU did not.  But, still have lead, get ball to start second half.

BRB gotta go order that crappy-looking Gotham Steel pan set.

We have to get more from Mitchell and Ross.  Chase actually defended better than Stevie in the first half.  My take is  Chase doesn't hesitate or look herky/jerky.  Stevie on the other hand does not look comfortable offensively.  It's time for him to step up right now. 

[Elonsmusk]

His open court dribbling scares me. Not quite at the Jamal Cain in the open court level, but he needs to give that up. Don't mind him putting it on the floor from 15' in, but let's face it, he is no Davante with the coast to coast run.

Quite possibly my favorite play ever by an MU player...against UW-Madison too.

I think we will roll ND this second half.  Seemed like we were a little slow to get into the intensity but defensive effort stepped up last 8 minutes and I expect more of the same.  Gonna say we win by 12-15.

Agreed.

Gotta knock them down. Seven were clean looks. 

[MuggsyB]

BAM!!!  Let's go now!!

[wadesworld]

Sweet play to open the half.

[mileskishnish72]

I like this!

[TSmith34, Inc.]

That's a start

[MuggsyB]

Excellent start to the 2H.  Keep attacking. 

[Johnny B]

great start

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Someone came out with intensity, and someone didn't.

[MUEng92]

Theo John would have been called for a foul on that last ND miss that Oso had a hand in the guys back as the missed shot rebound went over their head.  I miss Theo but I don't miss getting pissed at cheap fouls called on him

[real chili 83]

Eff ND

[wadesworld]

Eff ND

Amen. Hope we're saying it in Spanish by the end of this thing.

[RushmoreAcademy]

That's how you start a half.

[Daniel]

Let's not let up.   Keep the pedal to the metal...... let's Go!   Defense. And attack the rim!
