MU is in the pole position to win the BEast. This was a huge one tonight because we really didn't play great and Nova controlled tempo. We got to the FT line but we were nowhere near our normal offensive efficiency. Honestly, I think we would be the favorites if Freemantle did not get hurt. And I'll tell you something else: we should have zero fear whatsoever at UCONN or Creighton. I'm biased but I have no doubt we're better than both of those teams, even on the road.
It's only the current math, but both kenpom and Torvik project us as outright Big East champs.
Only forsure loss I see left is @CreightonVs X and @UConn are probably tossups
I actually think at Uconn is gonna be tougher, but I also thought we wouldnt beat Uconn at all so theres that.Creighton will be really really tough, I just think we do match up with them though.I expect to beat X at home and all the other "easier" games. So 16-4 is still my hope.
Bump.In before the lock. Personal story time as we get warmed up to the reality that one of these might be a possibility…In 2013 on a Saturday afternoon in March I rushed out of the office to the nearest BDubs to watch Vander Blue score a game winning basket that would give Marquette its first, and only, BE title.I sat at that BDubs, solo amongst a crowd of less than 25, with tears in my eyes.Thank you Vander Blue, Buzz Williams, and the entire 2012/13 squad.10 years later, lets go now!
Doctor This team has nuts. Six more weeks of work ahead.
