Congratulations to MU.  Hard and well fought.  Beat two very good teams on a neutral court.  A great way to start a season by winning an early season tournament against good competition.

+1.  Great bounce back after the Iowa embarrassment.  The team is buying in.  Again, we'll see a different team every night through December, but we're going to be alright.  3-2 through a difficult first 5 isn't outstanding, but it certainly won't kill us.

Color me pleasantly flabbergasted.  Night and day difference between the team that played the first 4 games, and the team that showed up in Brooklyn.

Yep - completely different team than the one we saw against Iowa. 

We will still have maddening losses...but we are definitely trending in the right direction.

Nice to begin to build success.  Now we get to 'work on stuff' and improve in all facets of the game during the rest of non-con.

Wasn't the 4th game in Brooklyn?  ;)

We played really hard on defense and unafraid on offense. We still don't shoot it very well and make freshmen mistakes but this was the team I hoped we'd be this year.

Good catch.  Didn't notice that.

Feels good to stack a couple wins. Enjoy this, and now have the chance to munch on a few cupcakes then walk into Madison with a little swagger at 7-2.

Just realized Rousey is in that photo. Thought he wasn't allowed to travel with the team?

He paid his own way so he could go with them.

Do transfers actually have to pay their own way to travel with team? God the ncaa has some dumb regulations.

No.

Not true.

Transfers can travel with the team. Just can't suit up.

Anyone else always read the "js" in jsglow as journal sentinel? For example, I read his posts and say in my head "journal sentinel glow makes a good point"
