Battle of DJ Durkin Game Thread

A&M has shot 26, 21, 30, and 28 percent from three their last four games. Shooting 75 percent right now. Why?

 

[DAWGSANDSAINTS]

Time to remove thumb from arce.
When we get lackadaisical and sloppy, we don't do well.

And for some reason that has happened pretty frequently this year.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

We down 12. That's the sign they ready to get on the bus.

 

[theoriginalSALTYdog]

Huge game. I just ate an edible. Second half should be fun.

AM -2.5
O/U 139

Tolu point total 14.5
Hubbard is 16

Well the good news is we'll likely be a high seed in the NIT and get a home game, so we've got that going for us.....

 

[msudawg1200]

Make that 78%. Unfreaking real. Better win Saturday. I'm sure I'll be called a "bad fan" for being a realist.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Somehow... Someway.... Sometime... In the past few weeks we have forgot what we learned about playing defense

Because they are wide *** open.

 

[57stratdawg]

Last 5 minutes of the 1H might cost us the game.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Zero fire on the bench.

Salmon needs to be in there right now making a move. Leave him in college station.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Tolu: 0 points, 1 rebound, 2 fouls. Yikes

Not really. We just stopped playing teams we can physically dominate. You know, being able to play basketball is important.

 

[msudawg1200]

And some of our fans think we are "in". If this holds up some of y'all are going to be sad in the next bracket predictions come out. 10 or 11 in the last four byes. Lose Saturday and we get in the Last 4i In/Out group.

Especially if you’re a basketball team********

They are basically doubling him before he can get a touch.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

We crawfishing into an nit host spot.

First 5 min of the game set the tone. I knew we were toast then.

[msugolf]

This is just piss poor from everyone…coaches and players. Horrible effort and execution

He’s going to a better job in a few weeks

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Rinse, repeat. Same song, every road game.

 

[Lettuce]

A&M plays the ugliest style of basketball I’ve ever seen. Amazing how some of those heaves at the basket have gone in. It’s just not our night. Ugly azz basketball.

I’ll give them credit for having a smothering defense. We have no answer

 

[mstateglfr]

Leave who exactly in college station?

 

[She Mate Me]

The only reason TAMU is winning easily is because they are shooting the ball SIGNIFICANTLY better than they do on average.

If you want to turn that into a reason to talk down about your favorite team, have at it, as you already are. But if they're shooting just a normal average, this is a close game

They are typically one of the worst shooting teams in the country.

 

[TXDawg.sixpack]

Coaches don’t care, players don’t care…

Why should we care?

ETA…Hubbard cares. With this late season effort by the others, I wouldn’t blame him if he transfers.

 

[8dog]

we get beat off the dribble a lot but this is embarrassing. They are getting to the rim whenever they want.

 

[RockyDog]

Jans is a joke. We need new blood

 

[She Mate Me]

Damn, I remember now why I quit entering game threads.

 

[FlotownDawg]

Some of y’all just say ridiculous stuff to get a reaction. There is no way y’all can logically believe some of the stuff you say.

You're just passing out the idea some here are logical like it's candy...

 

[mstateglfr]

MSU has way more than its fair share of fans who are clearly dumber than the average American.
Helluva burden for the school to overcome.

 

[57stratdawg]

We’ve had clean looks by Hubbard and Davis late. Just not going down.

 

[57stratdawg]

Refs trying to drag A&M across the finish line.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Refs trying to drag A&M across the finish line.

We made eye contact.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

At least we drug ourself back into this game. What were we down?.. 20+ points?

At least they turn herself around and start playing ball again?

Texas A&M is getting given at the free-throw line. Home cooking is good.

 

[mstateglfr]

We’ve had clean looks by Hubbard and Davis late. Just not going down.

Yeah, but Hubbard's misses have led to multiple putbacks.
Can't really rely on that long term, but it's been better than most of everything else we have tried in the half court.

 

[mstateglfr]

Welp, the middle of that game was atrocious and it's tough to climb out of a home that deep.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Home cooking is good.

Everywhere other than the hump

 

[msudawg1200]

Welp, the middle of that game was atrocious and it's tough to climb out of a home that deep.

They finally stopped shooting 3's out of their mind. 7-9 at one point now 8-21.

 

[HuntDawg]

Hubbard shot us out of this one, 5-18 from 3. Would have liked to see him drive and kick more.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Everywhere other than the hump

They shot 20 free throws for the game. We shot seven I can handle the way this game went a little bit better if I didn't have to listen to that idiot who is doing color for television tonight. I don't think he can string together to coherent sentences.
