Tonight's menu....cupcakes.
Here's to Jake Thomas scoring 37 points. ;)
Brian Anderson with the call? Fox gives us better for a pitiful OOC game than ESPN did for marquee conference games.
This game isn't even fair.
I knew they didn't win a game last year. Wasn't aware it was a team of midgets though.
Nice start for Otule and a nice midrange shot from Taylor.
Sportscasters said we have two terrific bigs. Some here will disagree.
Was about to ask if they abolished the 10 minute replay review to assess a flagrant for inadvertent contact to the face, then they did that review. Seemed to be unrelated to the scratch though.

Sadly it still looks to be above Derrick Wilson's level of competition. Turnover, brick, foul, getting blown by, picking up his dribble if someone comes within 8 feet of him.

That's the issue. Derrick and Jake might be worst back court in country.
Start Todd or OSU kills us. Hope Duane heals.

Eight minutes in and not one outside shot made. D.Wilson missed two wide open and Thomas one.
All points inside the paint against a terrible, small Grambling team.
Davante not in rhythm either sitting so long.

He had a nice assist and got foul but no call.
Deonte having the biggest impact out of the frosh so far on the young season, with Dawson in 2nd. Would've guessed before Duane got hurt that it would be him and Jajuan that would have an impact right away, not the other way around.
We still suck at free throws.
Are we really going to give senior to Derrick for two years?
I'd rather not wait til 2015 to see Dawson develop.

Already? Impressive.
De Wilson and Thomas off to normal shooting starts. We must have the worst shooting front court in the history of MU basketball
Devante can't make free throws no either wtf.
MU is 5 for 13 from fts, 0 for 7 from three.
Thirteen minutes in and yes, MU has not hit one outside shot. Not one. Unreal.
BTW, Burton is not shy......
Looks like the game is still moving fast for Burton..... But he shows signs of being a good player.
It's spelled Davante. Got damn. Burton is having his way with these opponents.
Burton's got a Crowder-esque nose for the ball. That's not something you can teach.
Hope to see Dawson get extended minutes. Can see he has more talent than Wilson, just needs to get comfortable.
It's called spellcheck...goddam.
Is that really all your dumbass can contribute? Find a fucking hobby.
3 pt shooting and ft's need to improve.

Agree....and don't want to get carried away on Burton....but Brevin Knight threw out the Charles Barkley mention....and I'd say that's actually a good comparison. Few guys as big, thick, nimble and quick off the floor as was Charles...
Buzz needs to recruit more guards who can break down the defense and quit worrying about trying to land bigs.

Willie won't like this!
Seems like Burton getting the frosh minutes tonight.
Dawson beat off the dribble.
Followed by a nice drive, then a nice assist.

Wow. Take a chill pill chief. His name gets misspelled on here every day. As far as what my dumbass can contribute, a post on a player's performance in an 'In-game thread' on a message board is pretty par for the course if you ask me. Much better than some ridiculous claim that we have two guards who make up "the worst backcourt in the country."
Did I just hear the announcer say that Buzz is going to have the team practicing free throws tomorrow!?! Doesn't he read this board?
Now that Dawson's got his first hoop, just got to get JaJuan to break the ice. Being the target of one of the many pretty passes from Dawson should do the trick.
Grambling might be the worst team in DIV I
MU did not make one outside shot. They hit three from the free throw line area, thats it 0 for 9 from three.
10 for 22 from fts (45%)
MU had 33 rebounds in first half. Unreal.
Burton>Anderson. You can just see the athlete in his game.
Dawson played well.
Thomas and D.Wilson had zero points and missed all their shots. UGH.......
OSU will be very interesting, Buzz seems to be going inside full time in first half. Better work on perimeter game in second or OSU will get ugly.
This new foul rule is killing the college game, I believe close to 40 fouls total on both teams in first half.
Craptacular free throws, 3 pt shooting and unwatchable basketball with 35 fouls called.
Dawson outplaying Wilson at PG is the highlight
Maybe since Wilson not a senior Buzz won't be stubbornly loyal to him.

Why take outside shots when you can get a basket in the paint virtually every possession?? We'll be fine with Mayo, Jamil and likely JJJ shooting 3's this year.
As for 40 fouls...I agree...it is a little obnoxious..

You're the one that felt like correcting an "e" to an "a" using "goddam" after. It's you with the clear personality disorder. What does spelling contribute to basketball?
We do have two of the worst starting guards in basketball. To deny it is ignorant.
Why, because they will need to in upcoming games against actual opponents. Yes, they have tried tonight and missed all 9 three pointers. This game is like a scrimmage to Buzz and the first half was going inside. Second half I hope they work on perimeter game.
And yes, first shot from 3 goes in from Thomas. And another...... Lets work on that perimeter game in this scrimmage.
Jake hits one!!!
I've been waiting a while to see that out if Jake!
Pretty crummy first half. Grambling is terrible. Otule and Gardner should combine for 50 inside.
Burton will be a stud, soon.
terrible FT shooting again.
Jake Thomas and Anderson add nothing. De. Wilson just a smidgeon above that.
Did I say that Grambling really honks?
Hits two and a big smile!
And another one!!!!
Burton is gonna be scary real soon.
He's got some awesome moves.
Has Jake turned the corner? /teal

MU needs more guards who can penetrate or hit the 3 and fewer bigs.

Burton continues like this and Anderson will be on the pine. Just has a skill set and athleticism.
Time to sit the regulars and play everyone else, but keep playing Thomas to get this shooting groove confidence going. Wow, Grambling is just a terrible team and feel bad for them and their winless coach.
Deonte with a one-handed right-handed oop! Jake hits another three.
Frozena sighting
What the unnatural carnal knowledge Jujuan?
Wide open 3 passed up for a awful floater.
He needs a confidence booster.
Giving up too many 3s
We always let these scrubby teams drain from three
I'll be happy if we always have Brian Anderson commentating.

Let's get Bill Schroeder in the house to complete the team. "That shot would have fallen in any other arena, partner."
JuJuan!!!

Good for him. Big smile on face after hitting it. Big smile on Duane Wilson's face also, as rest of team. Great to see.
Buzz upset about something with the timeouts. And keeping the Floodgates closed.
100+ points and lot's of floor time for all is good prep for OSU. CO looks good in paint and Burton seems like X factor. Todd, Jamil, Derrick all very solid and is Jake the 3 point threat we hope for?
Can't watch the game but how has Steve Taylor looked? By the look of the box score he has done well, but not much talk about him on here.
STJr with a double-double and 4 assists. impressive
Dylan Flood!
Flood should be in sooner to drive and score like that ;D
The FLOODgates have opened!!!
I just started watching and checking the box score. I wish the box score had minutes. Can anyone tell me how much time different people played roughly? For example, Taylor seems to have had a monster game. Did he do this all in 20 minutes? We have a bunch of guys with 5-6 rebounds, and a bunch with 10-14 points. Who did this efficiently in terms of minutes.
I haven't looked, but nobody dominated the minutes. Buzz certainly spread the minutes around.

Go to cbssports.com, they have minutes listed.
Wow, we win by 43 and score the most points in the Bradley Center era of Marquette basketball and still scoop has mostly negative comments to say about our team's performance. We're worse than UCLA fans
