Kolek planning to go pro
Both Vegas and KenPom said we "should" have lost to Georgetown.
I did not see the play and have not had a chance to watch the replay, but I knew the T was coming. Rutherford shouted something and then angrily stormed over to the other side of the court. Way more of a reaction to what he thought was a bad call, and he was showing the ref up. No doubt about the T at all.
I disagree, you should never EXPECT to lose as a fan either. That's a loser's mentality. Sure, you can understand that it's a possibility(sometimes maybe a good possibility) on any given day, but to expect it?? No way. I do enjoy it..when they win. When they lose, I don't. Should I be enjoying losses?? That would seem very odd to me.
I don’t subscribe.
Agreed. We dropped one we “should’ve” won, time to win one we “should” lose
I don't know that Providence is the pushover everyone thought they were, and can be classified as a "should" win game.They beat the Hoyas by 16, beat a tough DePaul team on the road, beat St Johns, player Butler tough, and just gave Creighton a scare on the road. They looked every bit Marquettes equal in another road win.Having seen almost every team play(I have yet to see DePaul), I don't know if I think any of Marquettes upcoming opponents are "should" win games. I'm guessing some of Marquettes opponents fan bases also thought MU was a "should" win game. Oops.The conference is truly as tough as people projected it to be.

Providence isn't a pushover, and Marquette should have won. Even as badly as MU played most of the game, it was there for them. Classic case of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
St. John's created an average 18.5 turnovers per game in their first six Big East contests. Marquette committed 15 last night.Sure, it could have been better, but a C- grade for a game in which St. John's was kept about 20 percent below their average seems pretty harsh.
Agreed. Hold on to that one and the tone would be different.
I know I'm going to regret this but what is the other game aside from Providence that they "should" have won? Yes, we've gotten our butts kicked a few times, which is extremely frustrating, but losses on the road to Wisconsin, Creighton and Seton Hall and a neutral court loss to Maryland are hardly unexpected.
Premise here is correct. However, would have liked to see us be more competitive against WI, Creighton, and Maryland. We probably don't win any of those games, but how we lost was disappointing and caused angst.
