Anyone at the game able to post on how Gardner looks in the warmup?
Also, did he participate in the shoot around earlier today?
is tv broadcast showing tech difficulties or just espn3?
Broadcast is good on ESPN

We are getting abused on the boards, but Gates has two fouls at least.
ESPN2 is perfect. Getting to see Cincy's offensive rebounding just clear as day. Wow, 6 off rebounds to zero.
MU had three turnovers in two minutes, but great 3 pointers. Now Gates has two quick fouls which is a godsend.
ESPN3 said technical difficulties, then I realized it was on the Deuce here. It might have technical difficulties as well though, because it hasn't shown us getting any rebounds. Gates with two early fouls though.

He is one big dude.
It's on ESPN2
UH OH. Wilson has two and out. Anderson got bombed and blocked. UH OH
Jeez that Cincy guy just missed a dunk, really bad.
This is by far the worst we have looked all year. Thank god they cant buy a 3.
Jae showed up shitfaced
Cindy is punching us in the mouth without Gates right now. We need to hi
t the boards and play smart bball
Thank God Cincy is 1 for 9 from three point land.
Anderson was terrible, just terrible when in there. Lost. Buzz pulled him after blocked shot, defensive relapse and missed pass.
What has happened to Mayo, holy cow what an airball.
Just keep it close, but Gates is out also
It's not 16-4. We will be fine.
Terrible ball movement so far...
Put Davante in. Hes got to want it more with bad knees then these guys right now.
Mayo is now 1-17 in his last 18 three pt. shot attempts. And the one he made was a bank off the glass. What the hell has happened to him?
15 points in 13 minutes played. They are airballing, missing layups, driving and getting shots blocked.
Cincy is shooting wide open threes and missing. MU lucky this isn't a 20 point lead.
Keep it close until half and Buzz will do his usual halftime rip.
Offense not looking good. Hoping Buzz turns on the pressure defense soon - we looked pretty bad in the half court in Milwaukee too, and embarrassed them with the press.
The whole team should be embarassed.
They flipped the script on us and we don't want to run offense
Anyone notice bobby's nose.....he puts Rudolph to shame. He's either been fishing in Florida or he had a half gallon of gin last night.

Yeah, they're doing a good impersonation of us. Not so great 3 shooting, attack the rim, get into the bonus.
I'd really like for one of our bench guys to step up, Mayo/Anderson/Jones.
wow this is getting ugly fast
Note to self: never get excited about MU BBall... I feel sick
These officials have not been consistent
We run into these games every so often, it seems. Just can't get any offense, and that kills our D. Luckily we've come back from more...but it's not been fun to watch.
Getting throttled now. How many blocks can they get? Don't they get the hint, stop driving.
BTW, Wilson and Crowder with two fouls is killing MU defensively. Cincy driving and no defense by either because of fouls.
awesome time out by buzz. Way to nip their run in the bud when we are playing like crap.
Wow what a terrible last 20 seconds there. Gave up 4 really bad points. WTF???
Hmm... Might not be our night. But ya never know.
Well ya knew that was coming....
We got em right where we want em....I think.
We cannot continue to do EVERYTHING wrong the entire game. Big hole tho to dig out of. Big.
OK Halftime. Game sucks so far. If you have a moment check out this Superbar link to give a fellow Scooper a hand. Thanks.

Well, this would be by far the most impressive comeback in a season of them. Just got run out of the gym. Can anyone guard Parker?
Wow. Rough start. I think we got it in us, but we're going to need to play some unreal D.

exactly. Just when I thought we'd cut it to 8-9, they go up 15.
They look so slow tonight. Like the Deane years. Seriously, how can a legit top ten team give up that many points and offensive rebounds??
will the blowout continue? Yancy back in the second half and Cincy doesn't need more offensive rebounds
Cincy shoots 2 for 15 from three.
Gates sits 17 minutes of first half and.....
MU getting bombed.
11 turnovers
Rebounding is brutal
Nothing from bench, who looked absolutely terrible.
They were due for a bad game and this looks like it.
Will take alot to get back in this.
Tough matchup to try to come back against. I guess I don't see this one happening. If it does, I'm not sure there will be enough adjectives in the dictionary to describe this team.

Cincy is a better team when Gates is off the floor. Jackson is prime example of why you take a flyer on a jumping jack.
unnatural carnal knowledge the bad game. Cincy is playing very, very well and deserve their lead. The Bearcats weren't all that bad in Milwaukee for most of the game and the midget seems to have the right key to making MU look like crap.
This deficit feels much deeper than any other one this season.

Cincinnati was TERRIBLE defensively in Milwaukee. They have really done a much better job tonight.
And I know what you mean about the deep deficit. It seems like even our makes have been tough.
Maybe a hang over from a very emotional win at WV. We are lacking the defensive intensity that we have had in the past. 42 points is way too many to give up. Also with MU so forcing our guys to foul is exposing our lack of depth. I saw Wilson a couple times simply avoid contact and let his guy drive through just to avoid the 3rd foul. For all of those who didn't feel DG return was that important his 5 fouls sure would have helped plus a big body inside.

If I have to watch Bill Simmons dunk on an 8 foot rim one more time on ESPN 3 I'm going to flip
All the 2 seed talk can now shift to worrying about getting a 5 seed
Did anyone else think Jamil could've gone right up with it?
Bobby Knight criticizing Junior for that foul, Knight would have been T'd up and thrown a chair for how bad that call was.
we look pretty slow tonite
Wow, Jamil Wilson making terrible passes. He has five turnovers on those.
Have to get some of those stops now on consecutive possessions and then shoot like 75% for rest of game.
Cinci getting to the basket just like they did in Milwaukee. This is what worried me most about this game.
Thank God I'm listening to this instead of watching it.
/teal or not to teal...hmmmmm

When we beat Georgetown on Saturday, and get to the BET final, be sure to come back and give us some more awesome insight.
this is so bad, we look like we don't even care as much as cincy. They are beating us every play odwn the floor in transition. Pitiful.
Thanks Jaquon Parker. Thanks for having a career game tonight.
This is reminding me of the road game against Seton Hall at the end of last season.
I really dont understand all the hype for our team. We have 0 top 20 wins as of the other day. 8-)

Season 8ppg. Has 24 so far tonight
we def need size in the middle, this mc sounds happy to say MU is on the ropes
I'd rather this happen on a Wednesday night where I will forget about it in 2 days than in a few weeks where I will think about it all summer.
A loss like this is a group effort, but Junior has had an awful game tonight - both ends.
DJO and Crowder are 10-25 from the field. The rest of the team is 6-30. Yikes!

Junior, Jamil, Juan, Jae, Johnson-Odom, Jamail and some of the non J's.
So far, a game to forget. Come out strong against Georgetown and put this one behind.

Yes, everyone has played bad except maybe Vander who is playing balls to the wall. But MU has no bench, nothing, zilch.
What has happened to Todd Mayo? In last nine games he is 1 for 19 from three point land and the only make was a heave bank shot. That is pretty poor.
Time to start a new winning streak Saturday
Stick a fork in us.
Not our night.
Jamil has not once gone at Yancy when he gets the ball in the middle of the zone. just settling for a jumper. awful
Junior Cadougan is 1-10 tonight. Rather have him get this type of game out of his system before the games really count.

Yeah, that was a great lesson (to me personally) to not over-react. We look awful, but let's regroup and play better against Hoya Saxa this weekend. And do agree with other posters, Cadougan has GOT to play better.
Gates just beat us down the floor
and the TV goes off. Goodnight everyone, and good riddance.
Overrated chants...ugh. Steams a bit, but we've enjoyed a whole season being ranked so..."it's okay."
Way to go Todd, you can hit a three. Now just keep it going.
Worst game of the BE season for Marquette?

Notre Dame was a larger loss, but MU was in it for most of the game. Never in this one. I would agree, worst one. Time to forget and get Georgetown.
So ... At least two games like this (ND, Cincy, Vandy?). Why? What makes this team so hot and cold? Against ND I thought it was clearly rebounding...it meant every missed shot hurt twice as much.
Anyway, it's been a great season. Going to try not to let this one get to me too much.

ND was different. But multiple, athletic bigs like Vandy and Cincy have are going to give us trouble. That is why Georgetown could be a bad match up too.

All 3 of those teams are much bigger than MU and have good inside, outside games.
Biggest numbers to me: 34% shooting and 18 turnovers vs. 9 TO's forced. No offensive rhythm and a lot of turnovers. The turnovers hurt the defense and they took care of the ball fairly well-we can't be effective on either end if we need to be forced to rebound to get all our stops.
Jamil was bad. Junior was worse. Jae was no where to be found for long stretches. WAY too many unforced TOs. Too many quick shots, particularly from DJO. Lots of matador D. Got killed on the boards early. It was just one of those nights. Come back and get one on Saturday.
FWIW, it was a joke watching the Cincy fans give Gates a standing O late in the game. That guy should have never suited up in a Bearcat uniform after his role in the Xavier brawl.

We just had a thread on this board a couple months ago looking back at the brawl in the Marquette / South Carolina brawl of 1972 (???) in a nationally televised game. No one was suspended. No one was even kicked out of the game.
You honestly think that anyone should have been suspended for the rest of the season for that? Complete overreaction.

If someone from MU's current team punched an opposing player in the face with a complete and total cheap shot in plain view of millions of people, I wouldn't want that player representing my university. You're welcome to disagree.

I'd suspend and bring him back when he apologizes and serves his punishment. Forgiveness is a Christian virtue that should be matched with deeds at a Christian university.

Fair enough. Should the player he punched have turned the other cheek? ;)
