They gonna move it to ESPNnews? Eggbowl a good 30 minutes from being over.

 

[xcop]

If UM comes back and ties this............who knows when TV picks up? Go State!

The game will start on ESPNews

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Let's basketball!

Damn having to stream it so can’t watch it til the game is over 😞

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

What was that about Alabama not being big enough to bang with Michigan State?

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Alabama leads Michigan State 6-2 heading into the first break. All of the Crimson Tide's points have come on dunks.

 

[frazor]

This defense is smothering.

 

[aggietider]

Afte the first couple possessions, one might have thought we might not score tonight. Then bam, 3 dunks in a row! I’ve had enough of this camera angle. My little boy said what in the world is wrong with the camera?

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Y'all, Bill Walton is rough to listen to

 

[frazor]

Y'all, Bill Walton is rough to listen to

Somebody get him a joint

 

[aggietider]

Y'all, Bill Walton is rough to listen to

Wonder if he’s videoing too? Some of these angles are rough.

 

[TideFanatic]

Score is wrong!

 

[aggietider]

I just saw on the bottom line Malic Hall is out for Mich St. Is he one of their better players?

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Somebody get him a joint

Feel like he's had one already

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

How is that a flop technical? Yikes

 

[TideFanatic]

Score is wrong!

They gave a 3 when it was a 2

 

[aggietider]

They throw it in the post and shoot mid range shots. May take us a minute to get back adjusted to that.

 

[TideFanatic]

The flop technical!😡😡😡😡

 

[MobileBama]

I believe their best two players are out

 

[TideFanatic]

Did Clowney smart off to the refs? The first foul was a joke and then the flop technical. terrible refs

 

[TideFan35]

We are a better team without quinerly on the court right now. He dribbles and holds the ball too long

 

[vegas man]

Spartans protecting the three point line. Need to take it to the rim.

 

[xcop]

I already am tired of Walton and donuts...

 

[aggietider]

They are 9-9 from the FT line and we haven’t shot one. That’s tough to overcome.

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Not a great game to go stone cold from beyond the arc.

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Man, Brandon Miller is something.

 

[xcop]

Miller taking charge

 

[TideFan35]

MSU living at the line. Not good
For us

 

[TideFanatic]

If you ever have a chance to get a voo doo donut, get the grape ape. The best!

 

[frazor]

Miller taking charge

Get the man the ball. They may be focusing on him but it feels like he went 6 minutes without touching the ball while Q was in.

 

[Tony_Tsoukalas]

Michigan State 34, Alabama 33 | 1:56, H1

— Michigan State is 10 of 12 from the line, while Alabama is 3 of 3.

— The Spartans hold a 19-14 advantage on the boards and a 6-2 advantage in second-chance points.

Noted! I've always wanted to try voo doo

 

[frazor]

I think, I think our bigs may need to jump over and help the guards who are getting screened to death. Sparty is 6-6 with 14 foot wide open shots.

Those are just foreign to our guys. They never see them when scrimmaging and such.

 

[aggietider]

We have to find a way to run some offense through Miller. We can go multiple possessions where he just stands over there and watches. He needs to touch it A LOT.

 

[frazor]

Really like Clowney
