2014 Bourbon County Stout

Nice Rocky. Living large!

Good balance too. Everyone but cohen(barely played) has scored.

It would be nice if carlino could make a 2 pt basket or 2.

If nothing else we look like we belong in this game. Hopefully this will mute some of the leftover Omaha angst.

Kinda makes it sting more lol.

Right now it seems like we play better to the competition.

Let's see who makes better half time adjustments. Need to be ready for them trying to bust the inside of the zone.  Co e out man to man then switch back or stick with zone?

Derrick should have practiced 25,000 layups this summer instead of 3's....

No drinkin for me- on the drive home - but just stopped in Racine and picked up my New Glarus:  Moon Man and Black Top.

Go Warriors.

Wish we coulda grabbed that board after valentines early miss. Still held em.

Frustrating because I feel like we should actually be up 5 right now.

But realistically should just be thrilled with the exceeded expectations.

Every bounce has practically gone against MU...and we've had hands on numerous balls to force turnovers and give it right back..and then they hit a shot.  

Great execution on the O and D ends at this point.  Kudos to Wojo and staff.  We look to have a very good game plan.

Like that Wojo basically always has 1 of 2 of Juan or Steve on the floor with Burton being the back up to either if off the floor.  Smart.

Cohen looks a little overmatched these last couple of games.

At this point don't overthink it and stick with what's working.

He's improved a lot offensively. Has had some nice curl plays to the hoop if he's going right. I think part of his issue is he's just too strong. He rarely, rarely misses shots short, even his missed free throws are almost always long.

Nice Rocky. Living large!

Managed to grab 3 bottles today, I'll hold the other 2 for a while, but couldn't wait to open 1 right away.

But if Marquette wins, I might need another on Sunday!

If the last two games are the new normal for MU.   If Wojo and crew continue to grow as much as a coaching staff as they have in the last 10 days.   If the young guys continue to get better.   If MU continues to play a solid zone without fouling......it is going to be OK and MU is going to be at worst competitive.

That's a great observation. Never thought of it before, but it seems like he often misses on the back iron.

Being too strong has nothing to do with it. Look at Lebron, he's a lot stronger and doesn't seem to affect him at all.

Nice hustle by Juan!

Except that fast break pull up yesterday that he had to tip in. But that was kinda just a rare rush lol

[We R Final Four]

Valentine is too open.

[PGsHeroes32]

Things looking grim again

[brewcity77]

Valentine playing the assassin.

[PGsHeroes32]

And then it all came ungluuuuue

[tower912]

Another near steal that turns into a dagger jumper.    Damn.

[nyg]

Juan bunny miss
Dwil, well....
Turnover

Seven point MSU lead.

Keep dribbling at top of key Dwil.  

[Daniel]

This possession is huge for Marquette. Need some points her. Let's Go Marquette!

I went to Highway Mikes in Kenosha.  Had the 2013 G.I. Bourbon County Barleywine and the Southern Tier Creme Brulee on tap.  Barleywine was a bit much for me, but the Creme Brulee was sensational.
