Almost enough punishment

[muwarrior69]

1.  ND was so far over their head.  Almost not fun.
2.  Oh, wait, hell yes, it was fun.
3.  MU's pressure defense against an inexperienced slow tempo team.  Phenomenal.
4.  Oso and TKo are pretty good.
5.  I thought Chase, Tre, and Zaide were mostly guys.  I thought Sean showed some dude.  They will all get better.
6.  Kam dunked!   Second time?
7. Oso shot a 3!   He looked guilty as it went up.
8. Not realistic to expect that ND wouldn't cut into the lead at some point.   Easy to lose focus up 30.
9.   Would have been nice to win by 50.  Ah, well.  The game finished with the walk ons playing.    That is a nice start.   



Even if MU didn't cover.

10. Notre Dame = Cupcake.

6. I wouldn’t call that a dunk.

It is as good as he is done in 2.5 years.   Take what you can get.

We’re not going to win anything handing out participation trophies like this one

It was a retro dunk of CBB 70s.  Very Butch Lee-ish.  Place ball directly above rim and simply drop it in like a potato in a grocery bag.  Kind of classy imho.  Smile on Kam's face told the story.

10. Oso was 8-8 free throws

This needs to be investigated.  Did he use up a wish or something?

Willie’s advice really hit home for him

A friendly crowd does wonders.

Maybe my imagination based on the results, but I thought his form looked a little different. Previously it seemed he was chucking it at the rim with speed like he thought someone might block it otherwise. Looked a lot softer last night, I thought.

Great game!  Gave me bragging rights over my sister for another year.

He still seems to be using that shot put push technique but he was much more consistent last night. It still looks like an awkward form to me but what do I know? If  he makes maybe 60% of his shots over the season hopefully we can avoid a Hack-an-Oso at the end of games.

[MU82]

Oso’s FT% starts now as far as I’m concerned. It won’t matter that he was at 50% for a month if he shoots 75-80% from here.

He shot 74% as a sophomore, he made some huge FTs last season, and he just went a smooth 8-for-8. The ability is there (the Scooper said, hopefully).

As the shutout continued, I flashed back to Mike Deane and wondered if Shaka threatened to sit the first person to give up a basket.

Sorry if this was addressed in another thread, but is this the biggest margin of victory in MU-ND history?  Or at least in modern times?

Does anyone ever remember walk-ons getting into the game in one?

There was a Friday night game in the Mike Deane era where we beat them badly. Definitely over 20. Can’t remember the year

[rocket surgeon]

we were very generous in our game plan...like kam shooting three's left handed behind his back

  man did brey leave them a steaming pile

January 12, 2008. MU 92- ND 66. One of my hills is that MU got screwed that year by the BE schedule. Beat ND twice, they were seeded 5th and us 6th in the NCAAs. They got to play Wazzu, MU played Stanford.

Homer on the post game said there was a game with a larger victory margin but never a game where MU boat-raced ND like last night.

[tower912]

 Fox posted a graphic with the largest margins.   I think it was ND by 39 back in the 50's.   The aforementioned 2008 game was MU's largest margin of victory.

[warriorchick]

For some reason, my Fitbit thinks I swam for 42 minutes while I was at the game last night. It must have been from all the fist pumping and high fiving.

We won by 22 in 2011

Felt like Marquette got beat by a million in that 2013 big East tournament game. But apparently they only lost by 8

[MU82]

I do wonder if Marquette (or ND for that matter) ever went into one of these games as a 20-point favorite.

[Viper]

Went up 21-2 and let Notre Dame play even the rest of the way.  Not a good look at all.  Good teams win, great teams cover.  Billy Packer was right

culture was off

That’s what Ners did at the rec plex
