YAY HOOPS: Penn State vs. Lafayette Live Game Thread
Yes, the loss to Ole Miss definitely stung, but this is no time for Penn State (6-3) to dwell on it as they take on Lafayette (3-5) at the BJC. Tipoff is at 7:00 PM ET and you can either fork over some money out of your pocket to watch on BTN.com, or listen to Steve Jones and Dick Jerardi call the shots on the Penn State Radio Network.
As for tonight's opponent? Well, let's put it this way: They rank 245th (out of 345 teams) on KenPom, not to mention, KenPom ranks their AdjD (Adjusted Defense) category in 337th. Did we also neglect to mention they're 302nd in rebounding? Forget about the fact that Lafayette features several guys who have the green light to shoot it from 3-point land(most notably Jim Mower's 22-of-53 and Nick Petkovich's 17-of-35 performances on the season), this is a team PSU shouldn't have too much trouble taking down. Of course, that means the opposite is likely to happen now and this game could come down to Tim Frazier having to pull off some Talor Battle-esque heroics.
As always, the same standard thread rules apply. I really hope I don't have to repeat them by this point.

YAY SHOOTY HOOPS

Its the name on the front of the jersey that matters most, not the one on the back. -Joe Paterno
32-26 with 2:50 in 1st half
now 0-11 from 3 pt. while Lafayette is 6-13. Probably lucky to only be down by 6 with those numbers
Wow. Travis 1-7 from FT-land
Probably should focus on that in practice. Heavily.
37-32 them at the half
Hopefully Chambers is yelling at them to guard against 3 point shots.
Missed the whole first half.
A woman pulled out in front of me. That was fun times. Anyway, looks like a typical flat December performance. Hope Chambers gets them to wake up in the second half.
That kid who tackled Talor Battle.
I hate when the woman pulls out
oh nevermind. totally misunderstood your comment.
It takes courage to stand up for a man in peril, even if he stood up for you.

Hah.
If there wasn’t a guardrail, I’d still be swimming in the Susquehanna river right now.

51-41 them
Appears the picture of Chambers is appropriate
This.

Coach Chamber calls a TO and adamantly tells his team “Stop shooting threes!” Lions 2-of-18 from three on the night.
That kid who tackled Talor Battle.
Not shoot threes?

Don't call it a comeback.
PSU on a 6-0 run, cut it to 51-47 at the under 8 TO.

On the bright side...
Purdue and Nebraska are struggling as well? I’m reaching here.

that turnover will be it, methinks.

Tim Frazier - 0/12
holy shit.
