Game 28: Michigan State at Michigan Open Thread

Thank goodness this went over the number at least.

Still very very disappointed as a fan.

Out-coached and outplayed. As much as it hurts, I’m going to have to admit just how good of a coach Izz is.

Villanova doesn’t count?

It hadn’t worried me until today to be honest. Chalked it up to losing to good teams in arenas they historically struggle in. After today, just surprised over anything. Didn’t think they’d lose at home to a depleted MSU team. Concerning now, more if they lose those two road games.

Huh?
Winston far outplayed Z.
Efficiency matters.
Look at his entire stat line

Poole is the story of the game, Mcquaid just dominated that matchup

23-28 FTs compared to 17-20

At the time I wrote that he had two more points than Simpson.

Edit: I qualified the statement with a ā€œfrom a stats perspectiveā€. I’ve been commenting about Winston’s control of game throughout the thread. Simpson’s issue may have been trying to outplay Winston rather than focusing on running our team.

Man, why do ppl get so butthurt about simply pointing out the glaring flaws of this team? No one here has said this season is doomed…or is being overly pessimistic, but damn, when simply pointing out certain realities about this team get’s you nasty, derisive pm’s, some ppl need to toughen up and not be such melty snowflakes…get a freaking grip.

Hopefully this is a reality check for him. He needs to figure out he’s not as good as the shots he takes.

Hedge and recover got shredded today. Izzo coached great game.

Very evenly matched today. MSU just outplayed Michigan down the stretch

Surprised they didn’t give up on that sooner. I would have put Matthews on Winston.

ISO ball completely disappointing on offense as well.

Yup, that would seem to have been the move. Bet they try it in EL.

Was that our worst defensive game of the season?

This or Penn State

…but isn’t that exactly what we’ve been told is what’s needed when a team switches everything? Attack your mismatches 1-on-1? Didn’t we go through this last year?

Was Harbaugh on our bench today? No real meaningful adjustments today by coaching staff.
