OK Warriors, only six more games left this season.
Lets stomp the cougars, eat their livers for lunch (shamelessly stolen from another poster ;D), and steal their cheerleaders.
GOOOOOO WARRIORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRh!
Dimes, since you are at the game, we expect you to give the BYU cheerleaders a ride back to Milwaukee.

Hey that's my ringtone on my iphone during the season!
Tip off is 1:53pm
Here we go
Nice start boys!!!
We look sharp. Not playing afraid at all, very promising start
Note: while waiting to pick your girlfriend up at the airport don't go to beer bellys bar on Layton ave. Bar tender said she hates basketball and I'm way to excited.
F her!
Yup. Nice 3 point shooting and I hope it continues. Team celebrated after Vander's tip in, did not get back for defense. MU seems quicker and more athletic at start.
Least the score is not the opposite of past games.
BYU not getting second shot attempts right now. Good start.
Wow if Crowder and DJO make those open threes this would be ugly for BYU.
That #2 on Wilson????? Uh oh
DG scoring, defending, passing. Nice.
Watch the game Verne...3rd on Hartsock and he's obsessing over a tie.
These refs are big on offensive fouls. If you had told me that going in, I would have expected it to go against us.
Gardner with huge contribution.
We look the best I've seen in a while.

Agreed...look really sharp and really good. Keep the pace up and you would think BYU will tire badly in the second half. Junior distributing the ball well and we are hitting the boards all over the place. Frickin' beautiful so far.
It's funny how quiet this board is when we are playing well.
MU with only 1 turnover so far, 12 minutes in. Nice..... Different Junior
Wilson left with two fouls at 13 minute mark, MU up 11. DG played outstanding.
Just hope Crowder doesn't pick up foul #2. He is just a beast today and he usually goes off in the second half.
Todd Mayo is just due, just due to make a basket.
Love the way we are playing so far. Stay out of foul trouble and keep attacking. We should be fine.
But let's not forget what byu did in the first and second halves of last game.
a set play to get Mayo a good look and some confidence would be nice if we can keep a nice spread

Okay...how is this?
Junior is not a big east point guard.....Vander can't finish....we don't recruit bigs....when is Mayo coming out of his slump....why aren't more of our students at the game...
seriously....perhaps it is because it is 2:30 on a Thursday afternoon.
Jae has become the 20th player in MU history with 1,000 points and 500 rebounds. he did it in two years! :o
Jeez, Vander make that layup.......Thank god for DG tip.....Nice.......
Quote from: nyg on March 15, 2012, 02:33:13 PM
Thank god for DG tip.....Nice.......
He's doing work in the paint
wtf? Why the yo-yo string on anderson?
Nice gesture by Jr. to touch Juan's head afrer that backcourt foul.
Carlino is gassed coming up against MU. Noah is down with fouls and looks like injuries limiting. Abuououoaoouououou (or whatever) is out of it. Davies is a real threat.
All in all, looks good for MU to take the win but perhaps BYU doesn't wake up until the second half in this Tournament.
With Harstock out, got to keep this lead. Have to make the free throws boyz........
Keep it going, no cutting this lead.
Poor Anderson, he played like 12 seconds and had two fouls. Buzz irate.
What happened to Jamil?

I second that... get the mailman in to do some damage...
newest billionaire in America? Lesley Vissar's plastic surgeon. Good God I am going to have nightmares. She looks like the product of an unholy union between the joker and a muppet.
c'mon boys....don't let the lead shrink
MU is simply better and Crowder is a the best player we've seen this year. Disappointing but hopefully the Cougars can work harder next half.
Your team has a good chance to compete against the other teams. Not giving up but we are not playing well and your players are a big reason why. Just wish we were clicking better.
Ox looking waaaaaay more mobile
until he just took a fall....
Gardner looks like he's gained 20 pounds....
Quote from: murobrob on March 15, 2012, 02:43:45 PM
c'mon boys....don't let the lead shrink
5 minute mark up 19
4 minute mark up 15
3 minute mark up 13
2 minute mark up 13
Jae picked up #2, so long way to go....
apologies we've played so badly. Let's hope we can make it a game in the second half.

These announcers aren't doing their job. The half court violation by BYU was overturned by the official and they were yammering on about something that doesn't have anything to do with the game. Still no explanation.

No apology necessary. Please continue so us MU fans can stop our incessant worrying. ;)
Jae with 17 and 10
DG with 12 and 5
Only 4 turnovers.
Different Junior today, very, very good in everything.
DG for Wilson was just tremendous.
15 point lead and DJO has not gone off yet.

You should expect that from Verne. I watch a lot of SEC football and he announces a lot of them and he is fucking terrible.
Up 15 at the half. I'll take it. Go Warriors!!

You guys haven't played badly. You definitely aren't embarrassing yourself or anything like that...
Buzz tried his best to keep all of Crowder, Wilson, and Gardner from getting #3. Very nice we didn't see the lead dip much at all with Anderson flailing all around. Crowder and Gardner playing at a high, high level, now need DJO and Wilson to help us advance.

Did anybody notice how he stole the ball from Carlino when he tried to do a cross over dribble in front of him? Just like Russ Smith did to Junior in the Big East Tournament. If you're gonna get schooled, learn from it, Junior has.

If Wilson is not effective at start, I hope Buzz continues with DG. BYU can't stop him, even though DG might be a defensive liability. Crowder is usually a second half monster, so lets hope DJO steps it up.
Yeah, hoping DJO starts up
Nothing on MU scares me more than seeing Derrick Wilson with the ball in his hands. He looks awful out there. Like, zero confidence and/or ability w/the dribble.
If only he weren't a guard. Oh wait...
WTF happened to Leslie Visser's face? Good God. That face!
Did Junior smoke a joint at halftime?
Wake up guys.......
junior is this teams achilles heel
Poor restart. Let''s go guys.

I hope you're joking. The kid never turns the ball over. He's up close to a 3:1 AT ratio.
Wilson miss
DJO turnover
Junior turnover
Junior third foul
Junior turnover
Wilson turnover
Vander turnover
Mayo turnover
All in four minutes of possesions More than all first half. Got to be kidding.
Come on........Lead to 10.
Good to see we are in cruise control mode.
Deja vu - gimme DWil!
Junior out. Mayo playing PG. This is getting interesting.
Excellent start to the second half. Exactly what I expected.
Good Junior/Bad Junior
When Junior plays poorly the whole team gets out of sync. It's tough to tell whether MU is better with "Bad Junior" in the game or without a true PG on the court. Early in the second, it looks like MU is better with Junior on the pine.
Did someone spill KFC gravy on the floor at the Eww! Center?
Vander chucks a 3, turnover, then weak foul for an and-1
Vander, come on......Miss three and then bad turnover......
8 point game and Harstock getting hot.
Now Mayo just threw it away. 8 Turnovers in the half.
DJO....DJO...... Wow.
"Picking up the Milk on the way"
8 turnovers in the second half with over 12 minutes to go.....that be the difference....wake up fellas.
Still not worried, even though we have a history of gagging big leads at the Yum
DJO coming up huge this half.
DJO! A much needed run by DJO and MU
DJO. Here we go.
Man, is Todd Mayo ever going to make a three for the rest of his career? I love the kid, but he must be like 1 for his last 25 or something. Just one to maybe get him going.
Quote from: nyg on March 15, 2012, 03:31:41 PM

Isn't that just Vander's game?
If Mayo could regain that outside threat it would open up DJO. Crowder and Ox even more.
Ox, by the way, putting together a graet game

We've been waiting for the stroke to reappear for two months. However, Mayo really works hard in the other facets of the game.

He certainly does...he is a real asset out there, just wish that shot would come back and he would have special impact. I like his game...alot.

He has only taken 12 three including today since @ ND. He is 2-12 on those attempts. He just isn't shooting them as much.

Yes he does. Now if Vander can only make those layups.
Have to stop Harstock, he is getting hot.
Good news is that with all the turnovers, MU kept the 15 point lead thru first 10 minutes.
10 more to go guys.....Good timeout Buzz.
the floor looks scary dangerous....if an MU player gets hurt I am asking for a formal investigation of Pitino....God knows what he "sprayed" on that court.

He is 2 for 19 from 1/24/12.
FUCKKKKK YES MAYO!!!!
There you go Todd Mayo worrywarts
Good God....a Mayo 3! How is that not a sweet sign?
There we go Todd. Perfect............and HUGE..
No worry wart, just the facts.
Gotta give BYU credit....they are making runs in the second half, but, MU keeps answering! This half is a great "tester" and should be something we can build upon going forward (assuming we keep answering the call the rest of the way).
What a joke of a foul on Jamil.
Crappy sequence for the refs.
OK freethrow time now....Got to make them down the stretch....
and Mayo misses front end.
We need a real point guard. Junior is a disaster

Can't wait for Junior and Vander to "lead" this team next year...
Can we get a freakin call? We breathe on Hartsock or Davis and they're whistling it, on our end I'm thinking the BYU administration is going to pull them for an honor code violation with the mugging before the refs blow a whistle.
MU starting to milk clock and then execute with seconds left. Not working real well at the present time.
Up 10 with three and a half to go. Soon will be a free throw game.
Another three for Mayo...
Todd Mayo is back ladies and gentlemen
Maybe we broke the Mayo curse. Again, that was just huge.....
Quote from: nyg on March 15, 2012, 04:07:20 PM

Very, very good to see. That could be a difference maker going forward to get the deep threat back from Todd.
Tournament win. Gotta love that. Especially with Gardner and Mayo giving us some really good stuff.
Ball game boyz......
Crowder and DG first half. DJO and Mayo in second half.
Excellent, now everyone can watch the Cuse game. Great afternoon, now turning on margarita machine. Been a pleasure.
Real Chili-you will like watching on your DVR.
Solid win. We need to clean up the PG play and some of the mental mistakes by Saturday
Is it true that we won on national tv?????
Great game! I can actually enjoy my day now.
Murray State should be tough, but I didn't see anything from them today that made me think it shouldn't be another W for MU. Then again, even if it was against weaker comp, there was a reason they only lost 1 game this year.
I want the floor fixed by Saturday. I wouldn't mind some new refs either. They were real inconsistent in my eyes. Granted I look through Blue and Gold glasses. Felt we were getting mugged on the perimeter and had some ticky tack fouls inside and on some jumpers (Jamil's foul on Davies for one).

Both teams were getting called for random fouls. Mediocre officiating today, but it didn't seem to benefit either team.

KFC needs to spring for some mops for crying out loud.
CBS studio analyst crew said MU was best team of the day by far. "sneaky good" phrase was used. Multiple guys also agreed Jae Crowder best player of the day and will be one of the best in the tournament - "match-up nightmare", "nearly unstoppable"
