MSU 102 N. AL 61

Recap
This was actually my first chance to see the Dogs play in person this year. Last night was a good time to watch the dogs b/c they had the inside out game going strong. Especially the inside, but that's not surprising when the tallest guy in the starting line up is 6'6". We have alot stiffer competition coming, but we've seen the dogs shoot over a zone and last night we feed the inside versus man to man. Bost had 10 assists which included some nice passes. I think last night was Osby's coming out game. He had one play where he rebound edand brought the ball back down the court, lookin like a guard coming down the court. He is very impressive passing out of the paint. After 3 games I'm not convinced now that Barry won't be our leading scoring, he is some much more comfortable at the 2. I was very impressed with Phil and Holcomb's defense last night, and not to mention Benock. That 2nd unit is a nice spark off the bench, when they subbed the first time, they increased the lead. I'm very excited to see what kind of stats we can put when Rick settles on a mixing the subs. Biggest stat of the game, 89% from the FT. Wow. If Bailey can continue to shoot the free throws like he is, he will be a crucial part. He'll eat up space and get to the foul line. Well, i'm reserving judgement for when this young team hits the road. Go Dogs!!!-Arliss

A great free throw percentage, a great shooting percentage (over 60% in the second half), and keeping the other team to a very low shooting percentage. Sounds like the recipe to win a whole lot of games to me.

The evenness of the scoring was amazing. This team is fun to watch. I am ready to go against some big boys and see how they do.
