IUBB vs Michigan State - Sunday, 03.01.26 @ 3:45 on CBS-TV

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

After 3 losses in a row my enthusiasm has significantly waned and I'm adopting the Cubs mantra of "wait 'til next year".

In just over a week's time: 

We lose by 29 at Mackey. 

We lose by 4 at home to an 11-16 team. 

Michigan State wins at Mackey. 

We play Michigan State on Sunday ...

MSU bludgeoned us on the glass last time. 13 O-Rebs to our 5. We aren't likely to outrebound them, but we have to get that closer to have a chance.

As much as I loved MSU taking out pee eww - I really can't stand and hate to see St coming on late in the year. But as far as that goes I can't stand and hate just about all the teams in the BIG! 

God!...please help my team beat the crap out of these punks!

Actually saw a Facebook comment the other night calling Izzo "Mr. February." I figure it was either a bot or someone very young.

I’ve never heard that one before, he’s always been preferred as “Mr. March”, “Izzo wins in March” or anything similar to those.

MSU favored by 3.5. Purdue favored by 5.5 at Ohio St.

A little surprised at 3.5

[TheWatShot]

My first thought was we'll probably have to hit at least 10 threes to have a chance. Then I realized Purdue made 12 the other night and still lost. 

 

Hard to see us winning this one. If we're like 6 of 20-something from deep it will get ugly.

Completely agree. Would love to be wrong, but MSU -3.5 is the bet here. They’ve got too much height and too much bounce.

They'll have to be sleepwalking to a degree and we'll have to be playing some of,  if not our best basketball.  I don't see both happening at the same time.

I'm interested in what our crowd is like today.  In the past, a ranked Michigan State team coming into Assembly Hall would mean a packed house and a raucous crowd. Unfortunately, it appears that mismanagement of the program has caused a decrease of enthusiasm from our fanbase.  I'm hoping the students turn out in huge numbers today.

Losing has caused a loss of...well...   Just win, baby!

I think it will be a good crowd today. It's still been packed and loud for big games like Purdue.

Now if we lose today, the place might be dead on Wednesday night vs Minnesota.

Purdue and OSU OT? Be prepared for IU telecast joined in progress?

Hope not.
