Basketball PENN STATE VS MINNESOTA: PREVIEW & GAME THREAD

[AWS1022]

Announcers called it "great footwork"

It was for a dance floor, but not a bball court.

PSU survived a good effort by Minnesota. I’m not sure we did anything that poorly except guard the paint like usual and rebound.

And over-rely on Pickett to carry the rest of the team. Lundy and Dread aren’t very good.

Lundy is good, Dread is not.

PSU got absolutely destroyed in the paint. We're just not good but the thing that bothers me is how we lose sight of opponents cutting to the basket.

Lundy was 1-7 from 3.

Minny missed 6 FTs which helped us hold on.

Good thing Pickett wasn't held to 25 tonight. 32 pts, 8 rebounds, 8 assists.

PSU is going to need a better effort to beat OSU on Thursday.

Yep, if Minnesota had me worried up to the very end, then it's going to take better execution at OSU.

Lundy had 9 pts and 4 rebounds. Shrews said he wasn't feeling well. He'll need 15 pts and 8 rebounds for us to beat OSU.

I have no faith in Dread. He's completely lost his confidence.

Coach said in postgame that Lundy was sick and gutting it out. Played pretty good D and had a big flush when we were re-gaining control. Will need more from him TH

We made 10 3s (10-26). Only 2 in the 2H but still pretty good overall considering Lundy was 1-7. Take his stats out and we were 9-19, almost 50%. He should play better on Thursday as he will be healthier. Wynter was 2-2 from downtown which is a good sign. At least they were going in on the road for a change. OSU gave up over 90 to Iowa so hopefully we can burn them with the 3 ball from Funk, Lundy, Pickett, Wynter and others.
