Looks like we're the only B1G team to make it out of the first weekend. March Madness - Page 5 3493939353

Looks like a 6:30 pm start on TBS.

by **NigelUno** 2023-03-20, 09:39

Although we lost, maybe playing @ MSG in February will help us out.

According to SportsCenter.... March Madness - Page 5 1550444538

Izzo has 10 wins over Top 2 seeds. 9 of them as the lower seed.

Anyone hear Drew Timme drop an f-bomb in the postgame interview? Once it was done, the courtside reporter tossed it back to Lisa Byington and she said something like “The always colorful Drew Timme.” lol

I was watching a TNT highlight recap. They were focusing.on UCONN's big (name escapes me) he was dominating. So anyway Candice Parker says "Thats all weight room. Weight room and barbeque chicken" I was like ehhhh. Am.i over reacting? If Wally Szczerbiak said that? March Madness - Page 5 1550444538

WTF - at least he didn't say water melon

I mean… he didn’t say “fried” chicken, and anyway the dude is African (by which I mean not American black which is where the fried chicken stereotype is applied - by ignorant fucks).

Doesn’t seem like a huge nono but probably said it before his brain could check itself.

Read my post again guys. Candice Parker said it, not Wally.

Okay - she was trolling us guys then?

by **kingstonlake** 2023-03-20, 15:38

Lol. I was just wondering if there would be an uproar if someone like Jay Wright or Andy Katz said it.

by **NigelUno** 2023-03-20, 15:56

Candace sometimes works with Shaq. She may have been giving Shaq a little shout out since he was getting surgery over the weekend.

Y’all are off the mark it has nothing to do with that stereotype

Probably. Just caught my ear when I heard it. Who knows. Maybe he told her he likes BBQ chicken.

by **Motown Spartan** 2023-03-20, 16:34

Y’all are racist for thinking any reference to chicken is a racial reference! /s

When you’re an idiot and some how hit the same bet parlay twice this weekend. God protects children and idiots.

Is MSU +333 a good value to make the FF?

Yes. We will likely be the favorite vs Tennessee.

maybe if it had come from a white guy, but the stereotype with racist roots isn’t bbq chicken. That a woman of color said it makes it even less of a story.

Also a possibility. Basically, there’s nothing here and no reason to speculate when so many awful things are actually being said around the country every day.

We will not be the favorite vs. Tennessee.

Maybe.

We definitely have better odds to make the final four. Possibly.

I swear to god I saw us with better odds. Must’ve mixed it up in my head with KSU.

New NCAA rule. Regardless of records, MSU should always be the highest-seeded B10 team.

We’re dropping. I had us at +333. Now it’s down to +270.

See, it was good value. Must be a lot of money coming in on the Spartans.

Us being a 2pt favorite and Tenn being a 5pt favorite in our next games are baked into those odds. Tenn with the easier path. Probably pretty close to same odds if both of us win.

I’m guessing if you are a fan of Indiana hoops, men or women, you’re hating Miami right now. Wow.

Remember when Pitino said he wanted to finish his career at Iona, and well, he bolted for St. John's so then this happened.

First thing I thought of when he was giving his post game speech in the locker with his team was 'that's a smile of coach that is about to get paid'. No idea how much of a step up Iona is though.

Committed in November. I'd guess Iona might be in play now.

I’m guessing still not the record number of balls mrs greenway has seen in one day.

I’ll be here Tuesdays and fridays. Please tip the waitstaff.
