Second half dooms MU once again

Love Buzz's comment. "The bench is a great teacher" Maybe we should sign the bench on!
Buzz: "I didn't think Chris played great" "We need another bigman"
You think????? At least he now said in in public.
"Yet it was freshman Corey Lamb who took the offensive cue from Walker, scoring a career-high 24 points in a variety of ways."
Man .. how many times have we seen Marquette give someone their career night?
I disagree with this headline. I thought the second half of the first half is what doomed Marquette. We got out to a fantastic start and then went dead toward the end of the half. We came out great at the beginning of the 2nd, but floundered. I wouldn't say it was a second half collapse, though.

Kimba Walker does not agree with this statement.

Given recent events, I was almost relieved to be behind at the half. I was hoping they would play their best in the second half for a change when most games are decided.
We were up 60-55 with 7:33 to play, then allowed the 13-0 UCONN run. I'd call that at least a mini-collapse.

That's true, but .. the odd thing is that we have often played decent 'D' on other team's #1 guy. Somehow, their #7 guy magically has the night of his life.
