Title: Hate to say it
Post by: wadesworld on February 14, 2013, 08:25:11 PM
St. John's is long and athletic.  Pressure the ball and force the pace.  The exact type of teams that Marquette has struggled with quite some times.  Could see Junior having more turnovers than points.  Have a hard time seeing us coming out of that game with a win.  Obviously a lot of time to worry about that and I hope I'm wrong, but that'll be a tougher one than I expected (not that I thought it'd be easy as no road win is easy).

So, you mean we need better players?

Not necessarily.  Just mean that teams that can force turnovers and alter shots are teams that have blown Marquette out in the past few years.  St. John's seems like that type of team.

Well then, they're quicker and more athletic.

I disagree. We struggle with long, quick teams who can shoot the ball at a decent clip. St John's outside shooting is as bad as ours.
