Panthers are hairy wet cats. Let's pound them
What say you Team BillyOhKeefeDeeBob?
Go Warriors!!!
espn3 picture has Steve Taylor. Clearly they think he and Ferguson should be getting more playing time too.
Here we go. Oh God, they just showed Patrick Young rejecting Jake. Bad memories. And then Crean picking up his gum from the floor and putting it back in his mouth. Oye.
And the Butler buzzer beater.
Instead of chanting "automatic," the student section should be chanting "USA." I just feel that a little bit of jingoism is the new "god was with our team over their team."

Unfortunately, I don't think we will ever NOT see that. It's gonna get worse in March before it gets better.
Making a batch of my home made Real Chili recipe right now! Gonna serve it at half time. All warriors welcome!
No doubt- maybe they can show Jr once in a while to make us feel better
Really got the "A" team announcin'
Chili!!!
Refs got us pointed in right direction?
Gonzaga wouldn't travel like Lockett just did.
Nice Start Juan
That's usin' your head
Otule's magic on the tip is gone.
What's the Oakland reference on the Pitt student's shirts.
JWil!
We should start a football team. D Wil is a great fullback bruiser.

Gotta team board today. Pitt tough on the boards.
Nice pass into the post, Jr.

MU not holding on to those defensive boards and hurting
Bad passes by Wilson and JR on consecutive poss. UGH.
Finally 3 point shooting arrived, keep it going, cut down on the fouls.

No kidding - doubt that ball even got 11 feet off the ground
Go Todd! MU as a three-point threat?
Don't like DWil on the 6-10 guy.
Man I feel refreshed that we started a game hitting threes!!

That worries me. They haven't made a 2 point shot yet. The hot shooting won't last.
I've turned off the sound. I'm sure it's me, but I cannot abide this play by play announcer. Her voice is either grating or annoying, I'm not sure which.
Pitts foul shooting is terrible so far
No access to ESPNU. Any streams, questionable validity or not!?!
Refs giving a lecture to blue and Pitt guy. Why?
About to be a point guard-less game sans Woodall and Junior
Not sue why but the Pitt guy then was called for a foul in the lane on the free throw
The more annoying part is how they're ignoring the game and talking about bracketology.
If needed, Wilson is very capable.
Ankle? Junior in serious pain.
too many TOs

So Flutie, did you go to MU b/c you couldn't get into BC due to the Flutie effect?
Devante has to rebound- cant run out to the 3 w the clock running down
Smash mouth basketball
Is Marquette really known for making the extra pass? I always thought we just relied on our big guys to make plays.
I think commentators just say "(big name coach)'s are always really good at (add fundamental basketball style)" whether or not it is even close to being true.
I don't think we are known for it, but blue just did it again
Jr back
How could they ignore the fact Caddy just came back.
He said Buzz's team is known for making the extra pass. we are playing great zone offense with swinging ball and hitting the open 3.
Turnovers are hurting again. Gotta get to line more too.
Juan with a beautiful spot up jumper.
MU shooting 67%, but has taken just 12 shots so far with four minutes to go.
This sucks, MU gets a 5 or 6 point lead and they just can't get it out further. They get this up t0 7-10 and it'd be over already.

Huh?? ?-(
Turnovers just killing us
You heard me...if MU could get this up to a 7-10 point lead it would be over.
Why do you think that, muguru?
I fear we have had our run. Second half could be ugly.
Blue has been great. Can't wait for senior year Blue.
Never saw a charge and a made basket.
BS charge on Jr. - the guy was sliding over.
Got about everything we could want in the first half, and no separation.
Gives me a bad feeling.
OOOOOOOO 2 Laaaaaaaaay

Must find a way to prevent second-chance shots in second half. And protect the ball.
That last Pitt shot may have gone without the goal tend.
Gardner's three from half court was just a wee bit long. Someday he'll get one of those.
Strange game. Buzz subbing like a maniac....
MU up even though Lockett has not taken a shot and J. Wilson sat most of first half with two fouls.
Pitt has missed a boatload of free throws to help out.
Cut down on turnovers and hope the great shooting continues.
Stop the TO's and limit fouls and things should be alright
Didn't think anyone could be worse than Driscoll. Corbett might just be doing that. The charge call on Cadougan was a travesty.
Liking the +10.5 at this point.
At least Jimmy Burrr is otherwise occupied!
20mins of tough play gets the W, let's go Warriors
Quote from: LloydMooresLegs on January 12, 2013, 11:54:38 AM
Why do you think that, muguru?
Without Woodall, Pitt doesnt have enough fire power to come back
We are the better, more athletic team in first half.
Cut the turnovers in second half, we win.
Early call....Blue SOTG
You could be right, though maybe not with that much time left.
My big concern here is better defensive rebounding in the second half.
Quote from: mileskishnish72 on January 12, 2013, 12:05:38 PM
Liking the +10.5 at this point.
When the favored team loses their best player three minutes into the game, all bets are off.
Mind you, even without Woodall Pitt is in very good shape to take the second half handily.
Davonte has to recognize a double team and get rid of the ball
Win this and we are in great position to keep our .500+ streak in the BEAST going.
Anyone else sick of the commercials with athlete doing random things? It was great when old spice first did it, but it is just getting over played now.
We gotta keep hitting shots in the 2nd half. Simple as that. The shooting % was rare and that's what kept us going. I like Juan hitting those open threes. Vander, Todd and Jamil have one too. It will be nice to have Jamil back for the second to get some more length.
Quote from: elephantraker on January 12, 2013, 12:11:02 PM

+1
Or start getting into the paint. We didn't do that enough which led to the FT disparity. Always going to be a struggle when Gardner has fewer points than Otule.
So, what's everyone drinking?
Little bit o whiskey here.
Like to see that 3d foul on the big guy.
Our bigs need to score!
Juan! And Vander attacks!
Locket and Otule look sooo much alike ;)

Spotted Cow
Weak weak foul on Otule
Lockett having a rough offensive game, some really awful TOs.
Has anyone else heard the term "held-ball"?
What a terrible turnover by Lockett, he goes from SOG to Come On Man. And Derrick Wilson misses a layup. Ouch.
Ok- that's the foul on the big guy. Nice pass by Ox. JWil must finish, but at least he hung in for the board
Watch your language Adams we can read lips
Great d and o from Wilson. Was literally just thinking how he hasn't done anything.
No pg in game
My bad- thought dwil was out
A beautifully choreographed play ;)
Love how this is basically a 1-8 stud game. Blue took over for a but besides that it has been pretty much a team game.
These crazy out-of-control drives are killing me. When is the last game Van didn't have a charge?
MU fouls are starting to pile up. Better be careful, PITT will have early bonus soon.
Wilson having a pretty good second half
Missing many chances to extend lead. Wilson literally drills that jumper everytime. Why he doesn't take 10 a game is head scratching.
I really wanna punch the five hour energy guy.
Concussed?
Vander needs to settle down. Vander has 3 turnovers in second half and feeling the wrath of Buzz.
D. Wilson is 0 for 3, one assist and three fouls.
Buzz's shirt appears to have turned a darker blue

I agree. It seems more on Wilson than Buzz. He just doesn't seem to want it.
JWil at the elbow again.
And then great position
Wife and I just created foot bump after last play
Ok, muguru, time to get to 7 to 10
Or. Maybe. Not.
We literaly can't extend lead. Then Pitt always drills a 3.
I've never seen a player go from complacent to give me the damn ball as much as Jamil
FYI, IU cleaning the gophers clock right now.
That cannot be before the shot

I feel they were more contested this half. Jamil's 2 3's were fadeaways late in the shot clock.
Quote from: LloydMooresLegs on January 12, 2013, 12:50:13 PM

Frustrating!! Pitt has hit big shots just when MU has had a chance to finish them. Big possession here. Jamil hits another 15 fter to put them up 6, they will get a stop, another bucket and ball game! Finally.
My prediction.

Also aren't we 0-5? I thought Ox's late 3 made us 5-8 in first half.
In an out 3 for jamil. Lead won't extend
Big miss by Wilson could have extended, then MU puts them at line. Jeeez
Regression to the mean on 3's.
Good TO by Buzz
Great hustle by the Ox.
For a 5th yr senior, Lockett sure does partake in his share of stupid plays.
Zoiks! Blue.
Jamil Wilson could not possibly be more mediocre.

Composure. Lets go dwil
Trying to do too much, DG.
OMG
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS........That was brutal.
Ummmmm
D up, NO FOUL ON THE 3!!!
WHAT THE HELL???
They'll drill a 3
Pathetic
This team is unbelievable
F***kin Derrick!!!
With 1.2 left, you have to GIVE THEM A TWO!!!
Absolutely STUPID!
How do they not guard him?
For the love of all that is holy, sub Gardner out of there and match up everywhere. Lockett's guy. He never followed him out there.
Lockett? Wilson? were they playing zone or 1 on 1?
What on earth was D Wilon doing?
First DG throw, then no foul and D. Wilson just brain farted.
If they lose, this game is on the coaching staff. Period.
Every game is like this.
Why were we not on the perimeter! We deserve to lose!
Who the f was he guarding
Buzz should have called TO to set up the D there. Brain fart all around.
UN F'ING BELIEVABLE!
Quote from: NavinRJohnson on January 12, 2013, 01:11:11 PM

Its like Wilson thought they had zone where he had to cover inbounder, but Lockett followed his man down low...
Quote from: LloydMooresLegs on January 12, 2013, 01:10:47 PM

Why are we guarding the two......again?
Clueless defense. Looked to be playing a layup more than a three. That one's on Buzz.
We can't even grab loose balls. Rebound and they dot get last shot. Now vander right there
No doubt about the outcome.
Our late game basketball IQ is in single digits
Wrong. Time for someone to step up. Lets go Vander.
Let's go WARRIORS
Pitt has the key answer everytime
The ghost of Crean invaded Buzz's head. Absolutely horrible final-second decision. MU had no idea how to defend when all it took was one stop. Wilson was clueless but that's on Buzz.
They sure are overplaying the Gardner minutes angle. The guy is 21. I think he can handle 4 more minutes.
Rebound!!!! C'mon
Lets go!!!!!
Offensive!! Yes. Oxxe.
Lol at them championing Lockett for losing the ball and recovering. He has played hard but find it funny.
Blue hits these two and they should pull it out.
Blue SOTG. 6-6 from line in OT
Davante lost that ball not trent
Why are we playing the foul game up 7?
And Lockett with the a dumb foul.
True. And it won't be if Lockett keeps making plays like that. Although they can't hit free throws, so...
MU nice ft makes today
Lockett turns out to be a genius to commit that dumba$$ foul.
Make these to cover the spread....
Crack open a fresh one, boys. Road wins in conference against ranked teams. Savor them.
Blue. 8-8.
Lockett foul? We are mental midgets!
Like I said MU by 6

YAAY!!!
Fantastic win on the road. Great to beat up Pitt in our last visit to the Zoo.
Solid road win, don' look on Scoop today for the traditional "Why doesn't Buzz practice FT" thread soon to be replaced with "Why doesn't Buzz practice short clock D".....Warriors!!!
Break down on the last play... again, but we looked better in the last 3 minutes (of reg.) than some of the past games. Some big buckets and it says a lot about the team to fight and have an OT like that.
K, those of you who typed up postgame rants, please hit "Post" and let us see them. :D
You can break down lackluster home performances, but you take any road win in the BE, by 1 or by 50. Missing our most important piece as well - excellent. The usual Big East "middle" is starting to take shape, and it's very nice to be on top of it.
Mea Culpa. I thought Pitt was still ranked and I was wrong. Still a great conference road win.
This game would have been different if we could recruit BEast ready freshman.
The last play of regulation, Dixon made a nice move by subbing in an extra 3 pt shooter. Buzz should have countersubbed in for Gardner, but did not. Somehow, switches were not made and nobody went to the shooter at the top of the key, while MU had 4 guys under the basket.
Homer said mentioned, last win at Pitt: January 21, 2007, also in overtime. That one was a memorable game, but this one wasn't half bad either.

That play at the end of regulation is on Lockett. If you watch the play again you'll see DWill signaling for Lockett to come out....of course he doesn't and DWill has too much ground to cover.
Buzz just said on his post game that Trent was supposed to have the shooter at the end of regulation.
