Looking at it more closely, it looks like the defender has his left knee sticking out rather then being straight up. That didn’t help him.

I cringe every time Moses gets the ball at the top of the key. His passing from there results in a LOT of turnovers. His options there seem to be limited to passing the ball away, or take a poor shot; I guess the end result is the same, but a shot there doesn't usually result in a fast break the other way. He has the habit of getting the ball down in the block and slowly trying to back his man down like Artis Gilmore or something. I'm surprised more defenses don't collapse on him at that point and force some kind of turnover. The defense clearing out last night and giving him an untouched baseline dunk in the first half brought me out of my chair. <iframe width="24.200000000000045" height="6.759999999999991" style="position: absolute; width: 24.200000000000045px; height: 6.759999999999991px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none;left: 15px; top: -5px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_83631273" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="24.200000000000045" height="6.759999999999991" style="position: absolute; width: 24.2px; height: 6.76px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 1149px; top: -5px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_22342441" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="24.200000000000045" height="6.759999999999991" style="position: absolute; width: 24.2px; height: 6.76px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 15px; top: 275px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_54054789" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="24.200000000000045" height="6.759999999999991" style="position: absolute; width: 24.2px; height: 6.76px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 1149px; top: 275px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_71909277" scrolling="no"></iframe> And when he gets the ball in the post he waits and waits and waits and gives the defense time to collapse on him. I don't know what he is waiting on. Attack the basket.

we bitched about the refs and it was deserved but this whole sequence could have been called the other way While I totally agree this could've gone the other way, it was the right call. They had a nice view from the opposing basket and the C took a half step to his left and Teague did make some effort to go around him. Probably was the right call but getting both on loyolas court at that point in the game is like a christmas present

You should drop out of sight on Predictions!! And, oh by the way, I projected the Win too!! Just Chirping I prefer to think of you as my bitch, not my girlfriend.

Fact is you have little to say other than attack!
Fact is your predictions aren’t even remotely close!
And, mine have been virtually right on the mark!
Enough said Mr Not!

Isn't this MUCH BETTER than beating IU Kokomo or Longwood?

Isn't this MUCH BETTER than beating IU Kokomo or Longwood? Our power ranking moved three spots after this win, it's better but not anything to get excited about.

Sweep NEVER can be positive BSU 0...NEVER has a good thing to say about any Whit Coached team even when we beat a top 100 team in their gym!
But, I may have beaten him so badly the last few times on Predictions he’s at least given that up.
I suspect in real life he’s a pretty nice guy but just likes the board as a way to get his jollies off.

This is a nice road win for sure and too the casual fan its awesome to say we beat a final four from last year. Im going to bet though that they end up being a 3-5 MVC team. Still a good road win but this is not a perennial power or anything like that

Don't give me crap about pointing out our overall mediocrity while doing the same thing.

12-6 is hardly a mediocre conference season in my view but you somehow left out that our " big year " as you put it included we'd play in the MAC Final... and also said we'd win 21 or 22 games with a difficult schedule. I'm not changing my predictions and if I'm wrong I will quickly own up to it...no problem. But, my point is my " prediction " included a bit more than a 12-6 conference record.
But, what I said above is pretty darn factual.
You still haven't responded to my comment about no more predictions from you....have I kicked your ass so bad on predictions that the cat's got your tongue??

Explain to me how finishing third, in a one bid conference, during your supposed "big year" is anything but a hallmark of program mediocrity. If you are happy with being average, and not playing in the post season, then by all means keep Whitford around because this is all he is ever going to give us.

No. It is not.
But then I guess bsu0 wouldn't know anything about beating Longwood.
He probably knows all about beating Smallwood. Of course, I'm referring to former NIU player Marcus Smallwood. Don't go getting any ideas.

3rd? How are we third? Or is that your projection for this season? I projected a MAC Final minimum.
And, General, I have been told by a source that you have mastered changing hands without missing a stroke?
