While I've been pretty good today, I am starting to get really nervous......Anyone else feeling this way?? I want them to win so bad......
LET'S GO MARQUETTE!!!!!!!!!!
Ours is a team who can beat anyone in the country, when, as Buzz says, we are us. That said, we can lose to just about anyone.
This will be a tough game for MU, so we should be nervous as fans - becasue nothing is ever in the bag, and Washington is a pretty darn good team. We will survive and move on though - we can beat these guys, and I think we will - by 8!
Or more. LOL - let's GO MARQUETTE!!
im too hungover to be nervous...but it's gonna hit me like a ton of bricks about 30 minutes to tip off
I get nervous watching other teams down the stretch. I will be nervous come game time, because every possession is magnified in the tourney.
As much as Washington is excited to play a team with no size, it works both ways my friends. Jimmy and DJO get to the hole today with no shotblockers. Acker and Cubillan have seen Isaiah Thomas before because they practiced against Dominic James for 3 years. Lazar has something to prove after last year's step over the line. Jimmy is perfect to guard Pondexter.
If we hit 40% from 3, we win easily. If we don't it is a close game and we have to make the plays. We won't be scared of anything though. I like our chances.
It is not possible to be more nervous than I am right now.
In my head the Washington Huskies are the LA Lakers and Isaiah Thomas is the real Isaiah Thomas.
It is a good thing I will be thousands of miles away, scaring the crap out of my kids when I yell at the refs :)
I am wearing my blue Warrior t-shirt, freshly purchased last month. Last time I wore it we beat Louisville by many points.
I am still nervous. Have gotten zip done this week.
Very nervous. I know numerous people in Seattle, my sister lives there, her husband and others I've gotten to know through them. I was just cheering for the Huskies this past weekend in the Pac 10 tourney, then low and behold...look who we have first round.
I need a drink, even though when I woke up this morning I swore I'd never drink again.
Incredibly nervous.
I just wanna tip off and get this under way. It's been a great day of basketball so far, and I don't want it to end on a sour note. Wearing the long sleeve Marquette Nation tee from Madness and the Converse pre game warm up shorts. Dad is wearing the Marquette Warriors tee I got him from the site that was around here for a little bit.
Both have solid records this year. Let's hope that continues.
I've been nervous since Selection Sunday. Let's get this game goin!
I am excited, not nervous. Compared to expectations, this is house money. Nothing that happens from here on out can take away what this team has done this year. Unless one of our guys channels SH's Pope and engages in junk-knocking. Everything from now on is gravy.
Anxious.
San Jose is shaping up to be an upset special: Murray State and now UTEP.
Frak me. Frickin get here now and wax the purple!!!
my hands are sweating. I need to get out and do something, the game is like 2 hours away, or I will have a heart attack.
I love our draw! We play our game we'll be all right!

Spoken like a true Irishman. "Today is the worst day since yesterday" ;D
Don't tell my wife, but I am more nervous than when my two kids were born. I too was less productive than a sloth this week. I am going to strike anyone from my jury panel next week who is wearing UW clothes, just in case they rooted for Washington. I am so nervous that I am in "coal to diamond" mode. I am hoping that parts of the players anatomy are not as tight as mine. Good thing that I have my priorities straight.
Dont take my blood pressure right now. It would not be good.
This will be a tough game, but we win by 8! Whew. There - I said it!
I was shakin' at the knees!!
The answer to that question is "yes" and/or "I feel the same way that I have felt for every game since Jan"
GO Marquette!
A little nervous, but honestly did not believe MU would make the tourney. This is simply a bonus.
