To The Hump! 5 vs 8 Kentucky Game Thread

[57stratdawg]

Let’s twist this knife. Might be the only time MSU gets to knock off Calipari.

MSU - 5 (Yeesh)
O/U - 155
UK ML +160

If you like MSU to cover, I’d lean towards the Under.

Also, winner of this one might get Freshman of the year between Hubbard and Dillingham.

 

[57stratdawg]

This should be a heck of an environment.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Started good, especially Tolu.

 

[Dawgpile]

Did we??? ACTUALLY pull off a 'white out' game? Crowd looks great!

 

[RopeDawg]

Our defense is SUFFOCATING right now. Love our energy keep kicking their ***

 

[57stratdawg]

Did we??? ACTUALLY pull off a 'white out' game? Crowd looks great!

Think they handed out shirts

 

[57stratdawg]

Did we sub 4 at the under 16?

Tough since the crew on the floor was on a big run.

 

[Dawgpile]

Think they handed out shirts

Still.....

 

[Baddog11]

Calapari working the officials on every foul call, setting the stage for help later.

We had a nice lead early but if we're going to get in a shootout with Kentucky this isn't going to end well. We could easily have a double digit lead if Tolu and Murphy could make a layup or if we played any defense. They're eating us alive on the ball screens.

 

[Dawgpile]

K-Murph doing gods work!!!

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Bell looks like he has put on 20lbs in the last month

 

[Crazy Cotton]

they've decided to "let them play" which means no foul trouble for Kentucky bigs, and they can hang all over Tolu. They're just sitting on the outside shooting 3s, so no skin off their nose.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

Somebody must have pissed off Cam

 

[RockyDog]

More Cam, more Murphy, mix in DJ. Jones gives us nothing at this point.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Team looks sharp, need to finish around the rim.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

Went from giving DJ the business to givin him blessings in less than 1 second

 

[Perd Hapley]

Playing well on the offensive end, but still seems like a minor miracle that we are up 8. UK is getting wide asś open looks on every single possession.

 

[57stratdawg]

Good first half. Up 8. 43-35.

 

[Maroon13]

Man, that has a helluva effort. State played well all around. Keep it going!!

 

[Jack Klompus.sixpack]

Calipari halftime interview…. Please hold on and beat his smug @$$.

 

[TrueMaroonGrind]

I need this win so bad. Need revenge for many years but absolutely need revenge for 2010.

Well we have the Ref tonight that his Daddy played at State so we’ll be ok !

Calipari halftime interview…. Please hold on and beat his smug @$$.

 

[DAWGSANDSAINTS]

Yea I don’t see DJ hitting two more 3’s in the second half.
Tofu need to quit finessing the damn ball around the rim and FINISH!!
We’d be up 14 right now if we make easy shots at the basket.

 

[57stratdawg]

SEC Freshman of the Year - Josh Hubbard, ladies and gentlemen

 

[Jack Klompus.sixpack]

Hubbard got a look in his eye coming out of halftime.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

The way this half has started, me and strat are gonna be the only people in this thread

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Hubbard got a look in his eye coming out of halftime.

He has settled down.

 

[RockyDog]

Why is Jones playing so much? He is literally not touching the ball on the offensive end

 

[Crazy Cotton]

Why is Jones playing so much? He is literally not touching the ball on the offensive end

He's got the length to defend their 3 point shooters

 

[57stratdawg]

Cam is really defending

 

[57stratdawg]

Not a foul on Cam

 

[Crazy Cotton]

moving screens all over DJ - 2 on that possession

 

[DAWGSANDSAINTS]

Not a foul on Cam

Nope

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Frigging walk

 

[onewoof]

Here come the shït calls for KY

 

[RockyDog]

Here come the refs. They calling some phantom **** in Kentuckys favor now

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Just like they always do, the referees give Kentucky the benefit of the doubt on every out-of-bounds play. I figure by the 10 minute mark they will catch us and pass us.

 

[Maroon Pug]

I really hope the refs do not start to get whistle happy at the end of this game.. if so, it will not go State's way.

 

[L4Dawg]

The refs are reverting to form. They always do when Kentucky needs it.
