MSU coach did a good job.
Petty, Jones and Ingram combined for a total of 6 points; need scoring from one or two of these guys every game. Ingram only played 12 minutes with 2 first half fouls. He and Jones looked like they had no confidence in taking a shot.
Too many times a player will penetrate to the free throw line and maybe a little deeper and end up with no defender in their face but they still won't take the shot. They'll pass it back out and push the shot clock or end up with a turnover. This drives me nuts. When the defense is taking away the three and packing the bigs under the basket to take away the drive to the rim, a pull up jump shot is sometimes the highest percentage shot to take.
Bama could not score in the last 4 minutes while MSU seemed to score on every trip with maybe one only being a one-point trip while the rest were 2's or 3's.
Passing wasn't there tonight. Back to too much dribbling and a little too much watching Sexton.
