I hate Teddy v
Students look great. I'm so pumped! Gold out is just ok everywhere but students
make your free throws.
Also, show Buzz more. Anyone else distracted on those camera shots?
thru first nine min. its been a bardger game and not an MU game. Would like to see some more transition from MU, but still hanging around.
How many possessions has MU played 34 secs of great defense?
DJO played terrible and he has been on the bench for a long time, but just returned at 11 minute mark. And misses another open three.
Airballs, missed free throws, 2 fouls on Crowder, rebounding woes.
Nine points in first 11 minutes.
Need to get it going guys, this game is a barometer of whats to come.
Bucky is what...4 of 4 from the 3 so far..that won't continue..

Actually they are 3 for 7 from 3.

It will if we continue to leave them wide open.
Hey the first timeout the students didn't sit down for!
We need to f-ing rebound. BOXOUT
Made sort of a comeback with this lineup: Junior, Buycks, Blue, Gardner and Butler.
Crowder missed most of half with two fouls.
Thank goodness for Buycks offense.
DJO sat 3/4 of first half, and no he did not have foul problem. Scoreless. What has happened to this guy?
Didn't play all too well, didn't get the majority of the breaks, but only down 2. I'll take it. Need to fix our rotations on defense and especially getting a body on somebody when that shot goes up. Crowder looked lost on D.
Wow, do anyone see the highlight of the dunk by Mbakwe for Minnesota? Yikes. That was with some authority.
Djo isn't even looking to shoot. Ewill had his chance but effed it up on defense. Our guards penetration is what is keeping us in this thing.
Hope Smith is ok, but glad something took him out of the game for Cadougan if Buzz wouldn't. Hoping DJO's on his way to one of his halfs of brilliance that happens every once in a while...just like last year, can't piece a string of them together.
I can't believe that UW's launched a couple quick 3's. That's the last thing I'd expect from them. Between that and DJO looking to attack the rim at every chance these last couple minutes, I like the way this is turning.
Otule at least needs to grab a rebound today...he's given us ZERO so far..

I think Cadougan was at the table before Smith went down. Buzz was getting him out of there.
OK, 17 minute mark down 2 and Leuer to bench with three fouls. Have to take the opportunity. Lets see if Buzz makes adjustments.
Very unimpressed by Crowder today. Very.
Five minutes played and nothing from filed, zero.

Get him out of there. He's hurting us far more than helping us.

what kind of pass was that?
Uw came out packing the lane. We can't get any offense going since we can't shoot. They are sagging off everything.

Typical of season so far, whether it is DJO, Crowder, Butler, Buycks:
"How can he play like this when last game he was great" No consistency whatsoever.
Marquette just looks horrible today. No energy, no rebounding, terrible shooting. Is there any bright spot today? Gonna be a long Big East season....

speaks to Buzz's ability to develop players.
This game is an utter embarrassment. I'm going to go apeshit on the next student worker who calls me about donating to Marquette. Losing to Wisconsin year after year is unacceptable.

Seriously? Year after Year? The two teams have split the last 8 games. If MU would have won today it would be 3 of 4. We have a lot of holes, maybe today some of the kool aid drinkers will finally wake up and recognize them, but to take it out on student athletes that call...really?
Very long. Many will change their predictions following today's effort at home. Running out of excuses about poor play.
Give UW some credit, they played great in second half so far with their star mostly on the bench. One turnover in 17 minutes, thats impressive.
No outside threat.....UW took care of the ball and made plenty of shots with less than 5 to go on the shot clock and horrible rebounding. Bad bad recipe for this game.
God I hate the Badgers...but, they did exactly what they needed to do today.
Junior has a way to go....as does Crowder.
I thought Blue played pretty well along with DB....if DJO could find his shot....oh hell, probably would not have mattered anyway today.
They've rebounded more of their shots than we have. Unbelievable.
DJO 1-9. That hurts.
12 offensive rebounds for UW in second half, thats insane.
MU out rebounded 34 to 23 in game with 30 seconds to go.
How bad must some of our bench be in practice if they can not see the court? I was hoping it would be a steady stream of athletic players putting pressure on UW and forcing turnovers and a quicker pace. Limited EWill, no Jamail Jones, Reggie Smith was a liability, Otule did not play much nor contribute much....Crowder had many brain farts on defense and the boards. Ouch.
too little too late

You think it's the student athletes that make those calls? It's not even students most of the time, just call centers looking for more dough out of my empty pocket. And you're right, knee jerk reactions are not appropriate after a game like this, where so many problems with out defense and shooting abilities were exposed....
...but especially since we're magically still in this game.
whipped cream on sh#t. That has been the last 4 minutes.
Still a lot of season to go. Get ready for conference play and hope the youngsters improve and the experienced players step up.
Buycks does what Buycks does. Don't even get a shot. Sad

When I was working in the athletic department, yes it was the student athletes.

Maybe we can send Joe Fulce out in a wheelchair. He would be our leading rebounder.

DJO knocked the ball away from him.
Not having Fulce hurt on the boards, but, the excitement about our bigs (that I had anyway) disappeared today by an utter domination on the inside from UW.
To play that poorly and still have a chance like that, and then to screw it up the way we did.....ugh. Kills me. I blame DJO for that TO, not Buycks.

That was a nice steal by DJO..
Buycks was our best guard today. He was guarding big all day and handled the ball very well.

agreed. DJO has been very disappointing this year, to say the least. Neither "true" pg really made much of a difference. Smith was a liability on both ends. JC played okay on defense but was out of control running the offense. I miss Dominic James.
I thought Marquette was playing today?
Yes, team looked very bad and if Buycks is our last minute goto man - this year could be very long. However, as bad as we played, the game was a 2 point game at the end. The group with Maymon lost by 9 last year and recall many past blowout losses to Wisconsin. DJO and Butler need to decide who is the "goto" guy at the end of the game. Defense is a major problem and defensive rebounding. However, Buzz will drill this into these guys and a win today would not help us. These guys need to be broken down, before Buzz can bring them back up. A win on a last second 3 pointer would have only validated the bad defense and rebounding.
