Message: [QUOTE="Replicant, post: 2136332, member: 392"] This TEAM had been playing with 'house money' all season long, beginning with the squeaker with FSU. Every game from then forward was a net-win and a joy to watch! To your point - MSU won as a team! They had a great game plan and they executed it to near perfection. Part of UConn's legendary dominance has always been that 99.99% of teams can't/won't/don't give 100% effort for the full 40 mins against us. Well MSU did just that for the full 45 mins on Friday night. And on the losing side, the TEAM shot 10% below our season average (68% vs. 78%) on FT's. That's an add'l 3 points on the 25 FT attempts we had Friday and would have been the difference in regulation time. 3 of our 5 starters scored below their season averages. The TEAM also had only 11 assists for the night, compared to our season average of 23. All credit to MSU. We got beat. [/QUOTE]
