The only redeeming thing I can think about playing MTSU is that we won't be pushed around or overpowered in the post. Sparty would have tossed Lydon and Coleman like rag dolls.

We had zero chance against Costello. That guy is a man.

I don't know they were banging down there pretty hard. They are not afraid to mix it up.

Both SU and MTU show what a complete a#s clown, moron Charles Barkley is.

 

[TheCusian]

be careful what you wish for

Gotta play someone. I'd rather play MTSU than M State every time.

30 out of 31 national analysts picked MSU to go to the Final Four. Whoops.

So did this idiot.

Unbelievable. Really unbelievable.

I replied to that same post earlier, so I will spare you

They were doomed!

i hope Syracuse takes advantage and runs the table with Jimmy B giving the bird the whole way

 

[FrancoPizza]

I think we'll ALL take our chances with MTSU. Sparty executed really well, it wasn't a case of them taking MTSU lightly. MTSU would have beaten pretty much anyone with that performance.

One other bonus is we get to hear the announcers say "Giddy Potts" for one more game.

 

[SuffolkCuse]

did they bring the white uni's??

 

[rrlbees]

I'll take my chances with MTSU. They could be another FGSU, but I'm willing to test that theory.

Yep. We might lose but I'll take my chances. Only a fool would want to take their chances with MSU instead.

I remember when a 15 beating a 2 was a crazy event...seemingly is the norm now.

8th time in 32 tournaments, but this makes 4 since 2012

I remember the first one...

Exactly. Bottom line. Absolutely crazy that game was. Did MTSU miss a shot other than a free throw that entire game? They made everything. We need to extend like crazy against them.

lol Donna, really?

I disagree. W can't extend because they have very solid, versatile inside guys. We so need to tag Giddy.

 

[Shenexon]

Superb day so far. Good effort by a bunch of our guys, then a wonderful performance by mtsu. I don't know how we'll match up but loved their underdog chutzpah. Kudos to all...

lol Donna, really?

She must have missed the red shirts in the stands and the fact the tv showed JB in the stands during the game

 

[NYCSUGrad]

Glengarry, i know you know it!! Blake at the beginning!! "So youre talking about what? Bitchin about some sale you shot, some broad youre trying to screw? lets talk about something important!!"

Seriously though, whats everyone bitching about on here when this game is on? lol

MTSU had more stud in them than the Izzo coached Spartans. Sparta has fallen.

I dont insult the Post Standard by calling them the Sub Standard as many do. I call them the American Standard, which itself is an ironic name, and a better description of their work:

 

[BuffOrange]

I can't get over the "Sparty 10-19 from 3" graphic they threw up with a about 4min's left...
And they trailed a 15seed wire to wire.
Incredible.

Thank you! I wish to Bees for a high 5 icon(I dont know if there is one) or the headbanging smiley with the beer mug hoisted, as you deserve it! I'm giving props for the one person to know it!
