If Marquette plans to win the Big east this year they need to go at least 5-1 over this next stretch.
Seton Hall@ G'TownProvidenceDepaul@Xavier@ButlerI can realistically see Marquette going 5-0 going into the Butler game. If Marquette plans to win the Big east this year they need to go at least 5-1 over this next stretch.
Agreed 5-1 is doable. Nova is really starting to put it together. Booth was Markus like in their win over SJU.Dont sleep on Georgetown, it seems people think winning in DC is gonna be easier than it actually will be. Butler has such a good home court advantage they will be tuff as well. So glad Martin is gone.
If Marquette plans to win the Big East this year, they’re thinking too far ahead.Wojo said as much with Homer postgame. The Creighton away “season” is over.It’s Seton Hall season.
I keep thinking back a couple of years when MU beat Villanova and the fans stormed the court and it was the greatest game ever and put Wojo on Mt. Rushmore. How did MU play over the next few games? hint: So bad that Wojo announced during a week lull between games that every single position on the team was open and those who worked the hardest during practice would start. Resulting in a JjJ DNP/CD. So, by that standard, SHU is the toughest game on the schedule. How mentally tough is this team? Will they be able to work through the euphoria hangover and beat a tough SHU team? Or will they repeat the mistakes of two years ago and show up soft? I hope that junior leaders Markus and Sam show up and don't let the team slack.
Biggest game of the year Saturday.
Next game is always the biggest of the year. Us as fans must NEVER look ahead, or we (fans) will be in danger of the dreaded trap game. Can't tell you how many times, I (as a fan) looked too far ahead, and the team (which I don't play on) failed to perform.One game atta time folks...

I didn't mean as in Marquette looking ahead to win the big east. I meant statistically it would be a challenge if they were sitting at 5-3 instead of 6-2 or 7-1 while Nova is getting stronger each game. I can't see the winner of the Big East having more than 4 losses and if we were 6-2 or 5-3 without playing Nova for 2 games I would say it could be difficult. Anyway I'm just talking as a fan nothing more. I'll enjoy each game but I like to look ahead.
Aside from can't remembering anybody putting Wojo on Mt. Rushmore back then, I agree with all of this stuff.I expect a good performance in front of a loud, supportive crowd on Saturday. Looking forward to the game.
Freints, please let me bring you to January 18th, 2015. PTM started browsing Amazon for a second TV to go behind his basement bar before Mike McCarthy put the final dagger in Pete Carrol's Seattle Seahawks. Figured the Pack was in the Super Bowl, need another TV for the party.What happened literally seconds after ordering a 55-inch Samsung LED TV?Fan should never, ever look past anyone or any team with seconds on the clock. We're important.
You know you personally cost us that NCAA game against South Carolina, reinko. You were looking ahead to Duke. Don't try to deny it!
