Oso planning to go pro
Lost at home to Northwestern in OT. We didn’t score the last 2:37 of regulation.
Girl I used to coach (Niyah Lutz, now a woman obviously) had 7 points, 5 rebs for Wofford against Wisconsin last week.Another (D'Shara Booker) had 2 points, 4 rebs for Austin Peay against Illinois. Earlier this season, she had games of 9 rebs and 11 rebs.Always fun to see kids you know move up in their athletic pursuits.
Tough home game coming up Monday with number 10 Mississippi State coming to the Al.
Mississippi State has scored over 122 points their last two games. Do you think the Marquette women can keep it close or will this be a 40 point drubbing?
Why aren’t you funneling those recruits to MU like Penny at Memphis?
I don’t think this will be close at all - 40 point drubbing is much more likely.
Marquette falls short in their upset bid losing to #10 Mississippi State 74-68. MU had 28 turnovers - you're not going to win a lot of games with that incredibly high amount of turnovers.
Watching the game Mississippi State fronted on the inbound passes after a made basket and it gave Marquette fits. Seemed like half the turnovers resulted from throwing the ball out of bounds while trying to in bound it. Still a great effort and they held Mississippi State to their lowest point total of the season. Perhaps they have a shot at competing for a Big East title?
Yes I have a feeling they'll be practicing getting the ball inbound after that game.They probably have a more likely chance of competing for the Big East title this year than finishing 9th as they were picked in the preseason Coaches poll. And this is the last season anyone will really have a shot at competing for that title with UCONN rejoining next season.
DePaul's gonna be sad since the reformation they've finished 1st every year.
Cough, cough...
I'll stick with my opinion on Gold. He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.
Not tying to be condescending, but is a road game (especially one to a program like South Dakota State) anywhere close to as big of a deal as it is in the mens game? I know we gave Miss St all they could handle at home, and we probably would have been blown out on the road, but since crowds are almost always smaller, and generally less enthusiastic for the women, the "better" team seems to win more often than not, despite the venue. Honest question.
