Abysmal FT Shooting in the Big Ten

[spermophilus]

NU last night kept Becky in the game.

PSU today is inexcusable.

My HS girls team shot better at the stripe!

Hey Spermbreath.....let's see you do it. On the road, 1000's screaming, pressure, PSU won, that is all that matters.

Hey "Doc"

Sorry to confuse you with the following facts (from game recap of PSU-MSU game):

3:14 Danny Morrissey missed Free Throw. (1 and 1)
2:30 Andrew Jones III missed Free Throw. (1 and 1)
0:47 Jamelle Cornley missed Free Throw. (1 and 1)
0:42 Jamelle Cornley made Free Throw.
0:42 Jamelle Cornley missed Free Throw.
0:29 Talor Battle missed Free Throw.
0:29 Talor Battle missed Free Throw.
0:10 Andrew Jones III missed Free Throw.
0:10 Andrew Jones III made Free Throw.
0:02 Andrew Jones III made Free Throw.
0:02 Andrew Jones III made Free Throw.

4 for 11 (36.4%) in the last 5 minutes? 1 for 8 (12.5%) until the final ten seconds?

With a BLINDFOLD and 50,000 folks screaming . . . yeah, I'd take my chances.

These guys are "1-in-million" guys. <70% is not acceptable at that level, IMHO. Especially when these games are often soooooo close.

You set your own standards, or excuse whatever level you think is "adequate".
