GRIZ S Mississippi

If the 2nd half team from last night shows up against Oregon, they can win. Oregon was good on paper until an unranked BYU took them out by 32.

Anything is possible, but I don't really see this being very close unless the Griz shoot lights out. Griz are getting out rebounded by D1 schools by 5 offensive boards per game. and 11 rebounds overall. This doesn't bode well.

Right, but Oregon has 2 sides also. Their wins are in the 40/50 percent FG and they don't break 40 in their losses. They don't break 30% in threes in 4 of their games, with one win being at 33.3% and another at 45%.

Montana's loss to Miss. St. versus their win against S. Miss is (29.9% to 43.6% FG) , (29% to 41.7% Three) and (72.7% to 88.9% FT)

Well Oregon is more Mississippi State than Southern Mississippi.
 
Didn't want to start a new thread, but speaking of Big Sky-Pac12 matchups, EWU is leading in Pullman against 5-0 WSU 60-56 with 4:47 to go.
 
Does anyone know what happened to the Southern Mississippi player who went down in apparent extreme pain at about the 10 minute mark of the first half? The way he was holding his arm when he came off the court, I thought he may have separated his shoulder. Interestingly, before play resumed one of the referees had a fan kicked out of the gym. What was that about?

He was escorted back to the training table and there were 4 or so people huddled around him for a while. I'm assuming he dislocated his shoulder and they were trying to put it back in. I don't know if he came back in or not though I thought he did. I completely missed someone getting tossed. Seemed like a pretty docile crowd, really.

As to the atmosphere, I'm sure taking the GA section out to sell beers affects it some, but the real problem is the amount/length of media timeouts. Holy Sh!t! Every time you thought there was a little momentum going or we made a good plan? Time out. Fans sitting around losing interest. I know it won't change because advertising pays the bills, but that's what kills the atmosphere at these games. It really sucks.

There are 8 media timeouts, 4 for each half. At the 16, 12, 8, and 4 minute marks. I believe the media gets 2 minutes for each media timeout. It's been this way for years. If you want fewer media timeouts, maybe you should root for the quarter system like on the women side. Only 4 media timeouts, one per quarter. When the womens games went to quarter system, I noticed the games lasted 5 minutes shorter because of the 4 fewer media times. The breaks between the quarters didn't last as long as the 4 media timeouts that were dropped.

As for the GA section, seems I remember it was never used much during the early season games due to lower attendance levels unless it was going to be a big game. The tennis team used it for practice once. Once the Griz get into conference games, the seats will very likely be back for general admission seating.

Yep, I know it's been that way for years. And our atmosphere, outside of Griz/Cat and a few Weber/EWU games has been sh!t and we've bitched about it forever. It's not changing and likely won't change. Money will always be a bigger factor than fan experience. I would love to see the quarter system instead of two halves. It's just ridiculous to have Men's college hoops as the only outlier with the two halve system.
 
I saw that on TV. The ref went and got security, pointed to someone sitting in the front area (opposite from So Miss bench) and they walked over. TV did not show what happened or who it was happening to,
