If only the refs didn't force us to miss all those FTs.If only the refs didn't force Jake to call timeout because he couldn't inbound the ball and then promptly turn it over for a SDSU layup coming out of the timeout.If only the refs didn't force Jamil to call timeout because he got trapped in the corner and then promptly turn it over by traveling while receiving the inbound pass out of the timeout.If only the refs didn't force Derrick to put up a triple-nada in the second half. And to get thrashed by the opposing PG most of the night.If only the refs hadn't forced Jamil to mentally check out about 30 times tonight.If only the refs hadn't forced Buzz to pull Burton out of the game when the kid was unstoppable.If only the refs hadn't forced us to miss all but one of our 3-point attempts.Damn refs. They killed us!
One solution and one solution only:WE NEED DUANE!
I really hope you're kidding. Because if you're not, you should be kidding.
We should have won the game regardless. Handing SDSU 4 points in a tie game didn't do us any favors, however. Billed like a neutral, played like a road.
I think butler was better than asu and sdsu. There is a lot of disrespect for San Diego state in this board right now, but I think they played harder than Marquette did throughout the game and that had as much to do with the outcome as anything.
Great game! I've followed Marquette for years, and yes I know where Marquette is located.Frankly some comments on here are disappointing. Please give our team some credit. We lost three starters and 70% of our offense from last year's team. We are young and improving.Marquette lost to a very good team tonight. The Aztecs lead for 95% of the game. And oh by the way, Marquette and Creighton were picked to finish #1 and #3 in the Big East. The Aztecs beat both in three days. Interesting stat: Fisher's Aztecs are now 97-0 when leading at the 5:00 mark; that stat is crazy.And stop blaming the refs. They were bad both ways. Example: Josh Davis was not out of bounds when he stole the ball and was on the floor.Good luck in the BE!
Congrats on the win. But please stop talking about Josh Davis at 11 minutes left in the 2nd half when two back-to-back calls in the waning minutes of the game could have been difference makers. SDSU is a good team as is MU. It didn't go our way. The refs didn't help (nor did any of the mental lapses MU made). You guys won. We'll live to play another day. I hope to see you in March.
