Penn State and IU are going to drag these last 40 seconds out for quite some time…

What happened?

But you have to make that.

to see Sims off to a poor start… Like the throwback uni’s though.

all schools, if your colors are not pink or orange, don’t buy that color shirt.

at least have the decency to not wear it to a game. Especially in the student section.

And it’s not just this game that’s making me say that.

We better get 3 free throws here.

Is it just me, or does Novak have a really high arched free throw?

we’ll be ok.

We’re getting killed down low.

but apparently we can.

I’m seeing a lot of players standing around outside the arc.

Yay 3!

Absolutely no movement inside the arc, all of those great back-cuts from earlier in the year are but a distant memory.

For how terribly we’ve played, down 4 at this juncture is pretty darn fine with me.

If we can make some adjustments during halftime, we’ve got a great shot.

Back to work.

Manny needs some help.

we need to push the ball a bit and try to get some more open looks.

but Manny is heatin’ up baby!!!!

We have to get some kind of inside game going here to open up the outside looks.

All Manny.

Manny is putting this team on his shoulders.

Sims gets in there.

That’s just back breaking.

it’s STU!

Between our shooting and the way the refs are calling this game…

That was a punch in the gut.

that this team is going to really have to work its tail off against teams that have a solid inside game. We simply do not matchup well against anyone like that down low… and when you can’t hit anything at all, it’s a recipe for disaster.

barring a huge comedy of errors by OSU

When we’re shooting 20% in the first half, it was so much standing around with no open looks and having to force it at the end of the possession…. funny what happens when the team plays with some urgency.

Gotta regroup now heading on the road to a Penn State team that’s playing pretty well. Sigh.

…we are solidly a middle of the pack team.
