Ceptorman 12297 Posted February 24 Yea they came to life in the Indiana game, and played great last night. Izzo gave a pretty serious interview last week, about getting everyone motivated, must have worked. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave1291 1232 Posted February 26 Izzo motivates? hahaha He's one of the best! We're up in East Lansing @ 9PM tonite on ESPN. Gonna be another battle! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave1291 1232 Posted February 26 They just can't close out a game now. Tom's a great Coach and I wish I were in the press room up there right now. Holtmann is smokin hot I'm sure over that "missed" blocking call on OSU's last possession. Game was over before that though. Discipline wins ball games. Simple! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DizRotus 9260 Posted February 26 Spartans upset #4 Buckeyes. It’s a cliche, but one game at a time now. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope they loosen up and expand the field this year. The NCAA just announced that once the tournament starts, if a team drops out then that's it; no substitutions. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave1291 1232 Posted February 26 It's ALWAYS one game at a time especially in the B1G. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DizRotus 9260 Posted February 26 The possibility of sustaining the NCAA tournament streak is looking better all the time. On Sunday the Spartans travel to College Park, MD to take on the Terps. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DizRotus 9260 Posted February 28 A victory this afternoon will help Sparty’s NCAA tournament hopes tremendously. We shall see if they’re worthy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ceptorman 12297 Posted February 28 Izzo has them gaining momentum. I would never count that guy out. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave1291 1232 Posted February 28 Ya can't EVER count Tom Izzo out! Great coach and an even better guy. Buckeyes home w/Iowa @ 4 on CBS I think. Who knows? I looked at the schedule and knew the last games would tell the tale. Now the question is can they grind it out? Won't be long til March Madness hits but w/Covid they say if you're out with it you're done. Gonna throw a wrench into that scheme too! Ugh! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ceptorman 12297 Posted February 28 I've been gearing up for the tournament, most of the 67 games will be played in Indy....I've been practicing. Did this yesterday...... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like Sparty is currently among the First Four Out. If I'm reading the chart correctly their problem will be that they will have to jump over 3 others directly above them to make the Last Four In. http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ceptorman 12297 Posted February 28 The B1G looks good, 4 out of the top 9. Five top 25 teams have lost so far this weekend. Butler currently giving Villanova all they can handle. Butler plays at Hinkle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spartans can't score, not the same as teams in the past but at this point they need stops. They have got to get this one if they want an invitation to the Big Dance.

DizRotus 9260 Posted February 28 That was a major disappointment. Sparty MUST beat Hoosiers Tuesday and steal a game from Michigan. Winning one against Wolverines is unlikely. Winning both against U of M is not happening. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
