tennessee state game thread

[CBB_Fan]

We aren't an ncaa tell right now. Maybe the will change like it did last year, but the guys need to give a much better effort or we'll lose a lot of games we should win.

We aren't just getting every team's best shot, we are giving them our worst. We are the reason Tennessee State is up by one at halftime. Bad play on both sides of the floor and poor rebounding is something we cannot afford every first half.

If it is any consolation, this crappy play by top 25 teams seems to be an epidemic today and even yesterday...

How ugly has Marquette-Ohio State been so far? The 38 total first-half points are the lowest yet in any game this season, per Fox.

Points in the first half for Ohio State football today: 35. Points in the first half for Ohio State basketball today: 19.

We're getting outplayed and out-coached right now, pure and simple.

I just passed a team of painters seemingly headed for the locker room.

Mike Kennedy said it was 19-18 Marquette at the half.

He was mistaken. 19-19 at halftime.

Im not even worked up, Im stating the facts losing to this joke of an 0-3 team at the half is nothing but embarassment, the fact theyve gotten all these offense rebounds that this team is getting, is cause for some serious concern. Not concern of whether or not we are good enough, but concern about effort. The only reason this team should be getting offensive rebounds is simple, they are putting in way more effort than us. Once again your comment is assanine as usual. Im not worked up im stating the facts. We have a lot to work on.

[1979Shocker]

VanVleet and Baker are both shooting bad this game.

[Play Angry]

The offense has arrived.

Can't disagree. This team is in need of a butt whoopin - by the coaches - not T-State....

Although from what I can tell I'm not missing a ton, I'm still very annoyed that ESPN3 isn't streaming WSU games until Depaul.

I kinda wonder if all the attention has gone to their head a bit, not a ton, but a bit. A lot of this game hasnt looked like MTXE basketball. Expecially on the boards, Expecially against a team like this. Their frontcourt is supposed to be their biggest weakness. The fact that one of their players has 4 offensive rebounds is extremely concerning to me. Not that we dont have the big guys we need, that the effort wasn't there. That is not shocker basketball.

We are gonna run away with this now, but I think there is cause for concern going into playing depaul and byu/texas.

First time I can remember Being more concerned about shocker defense than offense in quite some time!

Shooting isimproving modestly..

2pt, 3pt, FT
40.0% 28.6% 63.2%

[Bluzrover]

Finally, the defense is kicking in which is getting the offense going. Nice trey by Tekele.

[1979Shocker]

48-38 now. We've still got a ways to go to make the point spread.
