Maryland Game Thread

[NickelDimer]

Ed = unplayable. Overall we’re playing pretty well but MD just better

[PGsHeroes32]

I was kinda expecting this beating.

Don't lose to Kstate and its all fine for the non con tho

[CountryRoads]

McEwen needs less minutes. I’ve been saying that for a while. Give Torrence a chance or something.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Meh, get it to single digits before half and there’s a chance. Marquette has been a second half team this year.

[Johnny B]

These are brain dead turnovers..

[Norm]

Bailey keeping us in this game.

McEwen has been MIA in Orlando.

[jonny09]

Wow.   Koby.    WTF is this kid doing??

[mu_hilltopper]

Well, at least the Big East games will be easier.

[Markusquette]

McEwen needs less minutes. I’ve been saying that for a while. Give Torrence a chance or something.

Agree. Fewer minutes. More for Symir. I don't want his freshman year to be wasted.

[NickelDimer]

This is more about MD playing well than us playing poorly. Their D was incredible

[MUeng]

how is Theo so strong yet so weak at the rim offensively?  Afraid to foul?  man...

[jonny09]

Is what it is.  We are a one man team. No Markus and we are below average.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Maybe Marquette shouldn't play on Sundays.

Before a meltdown occurs, remember Md. is #5, has a great point guard in Cowan, lottery pick in Jalen Smith and a projected first rounder in Wiggins.

Markus way off, too many turnovers and 21 points terrible.

Theo put up three shots, all blocked.
Morrow terrible.
But real problem has been Koby.  Major regression last three games. 

[1SE]

I mean Maryland is obviously no USC but the Jekyl and Hyde nature of this team’s offense is fascinating

[WarriorPride68]

Wisconsin game all over. When Markus can’t get unleashed the rest of team freezes

[forgetful]

Love how the officials called an obvious lane violation when the Maryland player was in the lane way before Elliott shot the ball. Then they "changed their mind" and reversed the call when Maryland complained.

Don't think I've ever seen a violation that was called, changed because of a coaches complaint before.

[Smokin' Jae]

That little dribble he took while he had Cowan guarding him, allowing smith to rotate over and block his shot, smh. You are the biggest strongest guy on the court, act like it

[🏀]

Maryland is much better than I credited them for.

Koby stinks.

Morrow stinks.

Bailey trying, Jayce showing.

Theo, bad break city.

[RushmoreAcademy]

Maryland clearly capable of playing at a level we haven’t seen yet this year. Let’s see if we can play better in the second half.

[skianth16]

Really? You sure about that? Our offense is bruuuutal right now. Can't get anything going.

[Norm]

Down 21 at half. Pretty much over. Sit McEwen and play Torrence in the 2nd half, see what he can do.

Howard is 1-6. He has 2 points and 3 fouls.

McEwen 0-5 and John 0-3. Bench is 0-3.

Maryland is not a good 3 point shooting team and they are 6 for 12 so far - 50%.

[GoldenWarrior11]

While score reflects a blowout, Maryland is playing their best game all season. In shutting down Markus, Bailey - not McEwen - is revealing himself to be the #2. A strong case is being made for Jayce to start over Theo with his recent play. Ed, sadly, has strongly regressed to the point where he cannot even pivot correctly anymore.

McEwen, with this Orlando showing, should start coming off bench for a while until he can get any groove back. Give a look to Jamal or Greg maybe.

Major tip of the cap to Maryland's D. Their gameplan against Markus should be blue print against him moving forward.

[brewcity77]

I had to mute the TV. Worst announcers ever. I lost count of how many times he has said that Maryland will be number one on Monday when we are still in the first half. He started saying it when it was tied at 9.

Especially when he's basing it on Michigan beating Louisville on TUESDAY.

[JWags85]

Frustrating how easily they have taken howard out of the game

Wojo is running nothing for him other than a dribble handoff or a simple PNR. It’s an issue
