thats penn state and minnesota. this is the 1st place team in the Big Ten.

It should be a good game though ..Michigan State is talented, they've just underachieved.

and i'm aware of the illinois win ..thats 1 win. in fact, the top 5 teams in the Big Ten are 2-8 in road games against one another. So, thats why I'm going with Iowa tonight in a close game.

haha, yeah, i only remember to do that when he pisses me off. and he hasn't yet today. but that's 'cause they haven't played. give me about 3 hours and paula will disappoint me again.

I'd rather have this paula guarding the inside over Davis:

I'd give her a legit shot at 10 and 5, she does sit next to Randy Jackson. It'll be like trying to steal the food tray from him

why do people still consider msu a final 4 contendeR?

bigmike

02/14/06, 04:28 PM

why do people still consider msu a final 4 contendeR?
because they're the only team in the country with 3 guys averaging more than 18 ppg.
they've got a 6'11" big man with good moves, great guards and an outstanding coach. oh, that and their run last year, too.

Personally, i don't think they will if they're playing this way come march, but on paper they've got what they need to be a final 4 team.

yeah, they play really bad some times, i dont know anything about them really. i know paul davis plays like a pussy, and they have a black guard with corn rolls who wears a white headband

yeah. the black guy you refer to is shannon brown. possibly the most athletic player in the big ten. and they have maurice ager who's 2nd in the big ten in scoring. and paul davis is a pussy.

because he likes to pretend he's a 6'11" shooting guard and take 18-20 foot jump shots and let his guys post up in the paint before the entry pass even comes. I don't think i've ever hated a michigan state player in any sport as much as i hate paul fucking davis.

I'd put Jeff Smoker up there, he went to high school about 5 mins from me. What a waste of talent come his supsension

no, i don't even hate him half as much as i hate paul davis. but that's partly because drew staton is now the qb so that helps jeff smoker's retardation.
but speaking of waste of talent... this kid Kelly Baraka was a senior when i was a freshman and he was the 3rd rated high school running back in the COUNTRY and signed to go to UofM, and he got caught with pot not once, but twice and was booted from the team and had his scholarship revoked. the kid could fucking fly. like a 4.25 40 yard dash, good hands, all sorts of shit. with that speed easily could have been a returner or something in the nfl as he was about 5'10" and 185 lbs he could have been even more. but threw it away before it ever started. he's a waste of talent.

...Iowa by 12 w/ 3 minutes to go ...these Big Ten teams NEED to win on a court besides their own if they want to do anything in March. that makes the top 5 teams 2-9 against one another on the road this season.

they're proving to be legit ..i don't know if they can keep up with quicker teams like Nova ..but they can play some D and they are methodical on offense. Definite final four sleeper as a 4 or 5 seed come tourney time.

if big ten trends hold true, they should. 4 of their next 5 games are at home, where big ten teams seem to thrive. Their only road game is at indiana, and they're pretty inconsistent too.

Ratherbedead22

02/15/06, 12:38 PM

they can definitely win at indiana. michigan st has a good chance of coming back.

but of course, i hope they dont.
