Not to be confused with the official prediction contest. What do you think the outcome of the game will be and why?
If Marquette can keep the foul discrepency to 7 fouls or less I think we can win by 10 or so.
If the fouls discrepency passes 7 I think we lose by under 6 points.
I don't see us getting blown out no matter what happens. Our team is just too fast for their slow bigs.
If Wisconsin keeps turnovers below 15 and Hughes out of foul trouble, they win. If the foul differential gets large on top of that, we get smoked. MU must turn Wiscy over without committing fouls. Otherwise we lose.
I'm not sure its going to come to fouls as a whole for the team. I think it will come down to how we shoot the ball and rebounding. If we come to play like we did against Duke we win by 11. Although I think it is important for Barro and McNeal to stay on the court and off the bench. We need to be aware of the dreaded flop!
With 8 days to prepare, we should run these bums off the court. They just are not that good. We win by 15 to 20 pts. Go Marquette!

Totally agree. Can MU take and make open shots, especially shots in transition? UW won't turn the ball over very often, so don't expect as many steals.
How will Marquette do on the Offensive Glass? MU is very good at OR%, but UW is great at limiting opponents for OR.
