I remember after the SH game Wojo said something like " it wasn't really a 14 point loss"After this game I expect he will say it wasn't really a 14 point win.Some would call 14 points in either case a blowout, but it sure didn't feel like a blowout in either game to me. I guess there are multiple ways to win and lose by 14. Who knew???
Free throws do matta.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
All that effen angst about us simply having to go 3-0 against X, GT and StJ ... all the pre-whining ... all the implied Wojo-better-win-or-else statements ... what a lot of wasted energy.Bailey had his least effective game in a bit, just seemed a little out of it. And even he had a couple nice moments. Very solid contributions from everybody else who played before garbage time.We definitely got the better end from the officiating crew tonight. I can just imagine Scoopers -- including me -- if a Warrior had gotten called for a foul on something like Markus' 5-point play. Nothing wrong with a little home cookin' ... when we're the home team!From next-to-last place to 4th place in less than a week's time.We Are Marquette!
Is the extent of Elliott's injury known or any estimate of how much longer he'll be out?
According to Guru things are still not "ok". My question is when does it become "ok"?? 10 game win streak? When's it become good?
Are you suggesting that Markus wasn’t fouled on his 5 point play? Very clear he was.
When they STOP losing to crap opponents(like Providence) at home. Just because MU won these last 3(all games they were expected to win..I don't give a damn what vegas says) doesn't mean everything is okay. Let's see how they do in these next two road tests and get back to me then. Playing better?? Sure...but they didn't exactly play who's who of CBB in these last 3. That's the reality..just trying to make sure people understand that they did EXACTLY what everyone should have expected them to do these last 3...they still have to make up for the PC game somewhere.
I only saw one quick replay. To me, it looked borderline -- Rutherford got a piece of the ball and, as his momentum continued, might have touched Markus' wrist. We've all seen similar not called dozens of times. Maybe another replay was shown in which it was more obvious; if so, I missed it.

And the T seemed awfully quick, though maybe Rutherford said the magic word or something.Just saying that if the exact same thing happened with Sacar defending Powell in a game at SH, most of us would not be happy about SH's home cookin'.
Not quite as vitriolic as guru, but basically we're just to be back to where we should be. But no real reason to get too excited about meeting expectations. Friday's the first chance in a while for this team to get above expectations. Hopefully they do.
