Michigan State knocks off The Citadel 79-65 in a 66-possession game. Official box score. In honor of Festivus, let’s start with the Airing of Grievances: It seems to me Travis Walton played more minutes (at least 10) at point guard than he has in any other game this season. He also had his worst offensive [...]

Coming into this season, we thought MSU might have finally beaten the turnover bug. They had ended the 2007-08 season by posting sub-20% turnover percentages in nine of their final 11 games. To date, though, turnovers continue to be the team’s weak point on offense this season. Their turnover percentage of 21.0% ranks 163rd in [...]
Saturday Links: More Knee News

Injury News of the Cheerfulness-Inducing Variety Joe Rexrode: Delvon Roe said after Friday’s practice that doctors have cleared him to do “whatever I want to do.” . . . So while Goran Suton’s knee situation is a drag on this team, Roe’s situation is as good as could be expected at this point. He’s practicing [...]

The Tarheels dismantle the Spartans 98-63 in an 83-possession game. Official box score. In terms of analyzing the full 40 minutes of the game, the Statsheet “Stat of the Day” sums things up neatly: “Michigan State did not beat North Carolina at any of the 4 factors.” So let’s talk about the two halves of [...]

Going into this weekend, I said a 2-1 record in the Old Spice Classic would be a “solid outcome.” But that was contingent on winning the opening game against Maryland–which we didn’t. Nevertheless, I don’t think we should get too despondent about MSU’s Old Spice Classic results (although yours truly was pretty despondent late Thursday [...]
Wichita State Game Recap (11/30/08)
Posted in game recap, tagged delvon roe, old spice classic, wichita state on November 30, 2008 | 5 Comments »
Michigan State knocks off Wichita State 65-57 in roughly a 63-possession game. Unofficial Official box score (I’m tired of waiting for the official one to get posted). It’s hard to know exactly how to feel about this result, partly because we don’t know how good (or bad) a team Wichita State is. On the one [...]

The Spartans slide by the Mastadons 70-59 in a 62-possession game. (PPP: 1.13-0.95) Bad News: MSU trailed a mediocre Summit League team with less than 11 minutes left in the game. Good News: Raymar Morgan came up big in crunch time of a road game, scoring 8 points in a 13-0 MSU run to take [...]
Idaho Game Recap (11/16/08): Delvon's Debut

The Spartans vandalize the Vandals 100-62 in a 70 69-possession game (seemed faster than that, didn’t it?). In a game with plenty of scoring by the good guys, let’s start by talking about a player who didn’t make a single field goal: Delvon Roe must have had the most impressive one-point debut by a freshman [...]

The Big Ten Geeks have part 1 of their interview with John Gasaway up. Assists are adverbial! Tom Izzo says the team is looking “tougher” than he expected through the first three practices! Kalin Lucas is practicing at both the point and 2-guard. Delvon Roe is participating in full contact drills, but is being held [...]
Midnight Madness Report

I hadn’t been to Midnight Madness for a few years and I was impressed with the program last night. They did a great job with the 70s theme (women’s players in 1970s outfits, men’s players in short shorts, VW bus for Izzo’s arrival, funny video about Izzo taking a trip across America to the 1979 [...]
