Well, hrm... I don't really know what to say. Today just wasn't the Bucks day, that's what it comes down to. I guess you could say that 50 seconds changed the whole game, but the reality is that the Bucks went cold. It's tough to beat a team twice, even tougher when you have to play them two times in a row, especially when you consider a team of MSU's talent.

They could have done a few things differently, but the reality is that Neitzel played a pretty much flawless game. We run the Zone defense, the best way to beat that is to start killing em from behind the arch.

Considering the talent we lost last year, and how young this team is, we did better than I figured we would.

For now, let's keep our fingers crossed and hope that our regular season is enough to put us into the tourney.

GO BUCKS!

2 things that gave this game to MSU:
1) The minute stretch with 4 fouls and 1 tech
2) MSU hit their free throws down the stretch... OSU missed some critical ones

If this team doesn't make the NCAA's (and I would be surprised if they do) they could be a very good NIT team

the way the sequence all went down, I don't think it had to do with any puppeteering. The officials are just incompetent and don't know how to call the game. They anticipated calls that didn't materialize, saw things that didn't happen, and just generally sucked. And they let the game get away from them.
