Texas Southern actually has/had a lot of size.

That or he’s in foul trouble because of his sheer size.

Will we avoid Bo and friends because this is a special event game? I’m still flabbergasted at how the B1G refs showed up in midseason form, and that’s not even including the THREE double techs (which is a terrific way to admit you can’t ref a game).

There’s technically no such thing as a conference ref in basketball. The refs generally stick to a geographical footprint so you do still see the same refs popping up in the various conferences but they aren’t beholden to that . Though last year the B1G did do that basically due to COVID, but other conferences did not, not even the P12. So I’m curious if they will continue to keep their unofficial partnership with Boroski, Carstensen, Scirotto, et al.

I’ll set the number of blocks by Diabate at 4.5.

The refs in the MSU-WMU game already make me want to cut my eyeballs out. Every single breath is a foul.

C’mon western. Just for fun. Make it interesting for 40 minutes. Just for me.

The only thing more horrible than Western’s half court offense is MSU’s

Minnesota up 20-11 against a borderline top 100 WKU team so far. Looks like Jamison Battle is good, the rest of the team not so much.

All these MSU turnovers have been awful and pretty much unforced

Wish I had ESPN U. I liked watching western Kentucky last year. I was hoping to watch that game.

I wish the Big 10 Network would take some of that cash they rake in an upgrade 80 percent of their on air talent.

Listening to Bardo on this MSU game makes me want to drink.

Minnesota might just be bad rather than a garbage fire.

OSU might be bad bad. Given up 30 points 12 minutes into the game to Niagra, only up 4 because Liddell has 18

Hence the Bardo Catchphrase drinking game. If you must Bardo, at least get drunk doing it.

Yes, Michigan State is dominating in every other stat but they are playing a team that is just not good. No, it’s worse than that, Western is very bad. Right now this game is so out of hand that if I were a State fan, or a Western fan, for that matter, I’d be really afraid someone is gonna get hurt! This game is CRAZY!

Purdue has come out hot tonight. Like a freshly pulled basket of fries.
