Postgame Thoughts… FSU game 2

[UpstateSM]

Joe should have turned around and punted the ball into the crowd I would have stayed and clapped until it was just me and Benny working on his free throws left in the dome

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Good news. Pitt is up 13 againt Louisville.

Our win over Pitt might rise from a Q5 win to a Q4 win.

I applaud you guys for still caring about Q4 vs Q5.

When does the A10 jump us in conference rank?

JB was screaming for a foul on Jimmy’s last shot. There was none. He wouldn’t have made the foul shots anyway.

He could have used that moment to call a timeout before the last four seconds.

I'm just trying to figure out where FSU is finding these 7'+ frosh to throw out here in waves every year I mean seriously what the hell

Isn’t one of them from Syracuse?

Must be official now ... Benny's in the JB doghouse.
4 minutes last game. None today.

Will laugh or berate if asked about it.

Why wasn’t he coaching? The game wasn’t over.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

I hate to be that guy, but I was watching him during that last huddle before the atrocity of a play by Jimmy. Benny was outside the team circle standing behind JB, and looked totally disengaged from anything going on. Honest to God my first thought was; "Poor Benny". -sigh-

Saw that as well. Looked like he was mentally packing

They use that Brady Bunch trick where you hang from the swingset for an hour and temporarily gain an inch and a half of height.

The NiT doesnt go by those type of wins

Yeah, that was weird. I thought I had missed an appearance.
So, what—Benny goes public with saying he has no intention to transfer, so JAB is like, ‘Oh, sweet—then I don’t have to play you this year.‘

 

[Willy75]

Lowest IQ play I’ve ever seen in the history of basketball.

Well the in bounds after Keith Smart’s shot wasn’t so great either.

This was a game with good basketball. Sadly it felt like it would be a long 2nd half because of that, and I dont know whether to be happy because this is the first time we reached that this year or sad because were not good enough to beat top 26-50ish teams that play well.

Sy played well, Edwards played tough, Joe had his best stretch of the year in the first half, Cole brought some toughness, buddy was up and down. The last bucket that we scored on was good. Cuse was good today imo.

And they should have won.

He broke Jimmy's Nintendo.

It's a pattern that repeats itself over and over throughout the game - this was just an instance where it occurred toward the end as well

Jims world is becoming pretty strange.

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

I mean we play well and lose all these games but its not like at any time you think we are the superior team.

As always if we only had a bench things could be very different but we couldn't have guys on the roster that pushed certain players for PT.

There is actually no such thing as a Q5 win. Q4 is the lowest you can be.
I just decided to put Pitt in Q5 to make a joke about them -- you can always look to Pitt basketball in your time of misery

I would be curious to hear from someone who was at the game if JB was arguing that Jimmy was fouled for that entire final 10 seconds or whatever it was.

He was hoping to get a few steps in today

Such a joke.

Feel terrible for the kid.
