I really wish MU played the early game!  All this waiting throughout the day, evening and night has left my stomach in butterflies.  Almost time - let's bring it boys!

in'03, UW lost the early game (and many questioned a coaching decision by Bo).  MU followed up with a win.  History repeats tonight!!

I agree.  A lot of butterflies the whole day.  Sort of feels surreal that the game is almost on.

Insulted by that comment. I am all Marquette..just think he is playing horrible, want him to be great like he can be. I know what his plan was, but they love to shoot outside so he can not chase on a play like that.

Post by: NersEllenson on March 22, 2012, 09:42:38 PM
Said it before..the way to beat MU is to pressure the hell out of Cadougan/the team for all 94 feet...Louisville and Cincy loses at end of season illustrated this.  Not surprised to seen Donovan bring the heat.  Hopefully the guys settle down just a little and get their composure.  Looks like this is gonna be a dogfight.
Title: Re: florida game thread

We need to move the ball better. Luckily DJO has been hot so far. We need to get DG involved on offense too.

Yup, those three empty possessions really hurt.  Jae is 0 for 3 from three and missing poorly.  Can't believe Vander's layup didn't drop.

BTW, Gardner looks slow tonight, like he is hurting.

Not very good.  With Crowder on bench, glad we are just about even.  Florida is just chucking up 3's.

I actually have a really good feeling about the second half right now. Don't know why, but I do. We didn't play our game in the first half, and I think Buzz is going to go into the locker room and get them focused.

Probably going to give the speech of his life and give them nerves of steel.

Just a feeling. Hope I'm right.

They're 4-14 from three...and we're losing!

6 points is nothing. Plenty of time. Jae needs to get back to being Jae. Hopefully Junior will come around.

May have to break out the special MU beverage tankard for the second half...

This press is hurting us. And it isn't just Jae and junior being out for most of thie first half. We didn't look comfortable with that press from the tip off.

Let's hope buzz can pull them together for the second half.

Stay out of foul trouble!!!!!

MU shot 31% and only down 6.  

MU has 8 fouls, FL 7.  So much for the fouls difference.

Difference in game was Junior's terrible play and MU not making some layups/putbacks.

Time for the two senior stars to take over in second half.  Its their time or they go home, simple as that.

Junior definitely makes some bad decisions with the basketball but it's obvious that the offense flows better when he's on the court. When Junior is good, MU is really good. When Junior is bad, MU cna still win but someone else needs to step up and make some plays.

I feel really good. The game was super tight without our floor general and Jae.  We have a huge advantage going into the 2nd half.  Jae picks up a 3rd within 1st 5 min, we are in trouble.

You must be a current or very recent students because if you saw d wade in real action, no one compares to him. It was magical.
Against Kentucky, yes. Otherwise, it was clear he was a great player, but he was as derided as any player for his bonehead plays.

I would really like to see Vander and Todd finish stronger when they go to hoop. It seem in the past two games those guys have been getting to the hoop but not finishing. Dunk it, bank it in. The second half belongs to the Warriors.

Yeah...when Len said Gardner is still limping and doesn't have hops, all I could think was that at 100% Gardner is still limping and doesn't have hops. He may not be at full strength, but his gangsta lean and lack of a vertical isn't an indicator of that.

4 points in five minutes will not do it.  Now Murphy hits a 3 and is 1 for 8.  Not good, complete offensive meltdown so far.  Alot of time left, but the next five minutes or so will be key.  Must get this lead down.

Florida is good...no need to take anything away from them..they are causing MU's problems - started with pressuring the hell out of Cadougan.

In my view, we look gassed..tired...perhaps Buzz rode the horses a little too hard down the stretch and the guys don't have much left in the tank..

Jae has missed 3 shots all short...not saying he won't get it going...but in my view there is some fatigue in our squad..

I disagree.  They are just as talanted and athletic as MU.  They are also well coached.  Foul trouble has really hurt MU this game.  Crowder picking up 2 fouls 10 mins into the game was very detrimental to MU.

Last 5 or 6 shots have been fine, just not hitting them.  Buzz doing all he can with the TOs to get the team into it.  Unfortunately he can't put himself in to hit the halfcourt shot.

Buzz is coaching his a$$ off tonight. He can only do so much when his team can't make a shot.

I don't want to wait either for MU to return to the promised land..but let's not look at this team with rose colored glasses only because this is "our" team.  We have no players over 6'8, we have only two seniors, albeit the best players on our team.  This is a good team, but not a great team.  I am excited for the future of course, and I see things only getting better.  Maybe we can pull this out only being down by six.

How do you look at a replay and not call the flagrant 1?  The rule is very clear.  Should have been 2 free throws and posesion.  Could have made it a 2pt. game. Instead Florida gets 2 free throws, lead is 8 and the game is over.  Those refs should be suspended for that no call.  Sucks we were in the position for a call like that to matter.  Love what I saw from Todd in the second half. Huge upside there.

We can have a lot of regrets about this game. Florida didn't play well. But we weren't able to shoot. Crower and DJO missed a lot a wide open shots. Too many TO's also, especially in the beginning when we were playing much better.

Hate to say it, but disagree. This team was far better than last year's, yet did worst at MSG and no better in the NCAAs. Disappointing season at best.

The no-call had nothing to do with the loss. They played scared and settled for jumpshots 10 seconds into the clock instead of going at Young. Then on defense they jogged on switches and were lazy to close. Florida waited for shots and deserved to win.

I love Buzz, but this is yet another game where they couldn't execute halfcourt sets. I don't know if its the players or the 4-out-1-in flex thing doesn't work, but something has to change. They could have been far more effective using ball screens

Congrats to Coach Donovan
