The Hall did their thing.
Time for us to do our thing.
Go Warriors.
If MU wins, they will be tied with Villanova in the Big East standings.
Who gets the tie-breaker? Who gets the #1 seed for the conference tournament, in other words? I haven't read or heard the word on this. Thank you.

If we win and X beats SJU, we get the #1 seed.
Let's go MU!
OK, thank you, GooooMarquette!
Playing for a BE regular season Co-Title now.
11 point favorites over a team that got blitzed by Depaul by 30 few nights ago.
Limit those turnovers and get it done.
We need the win bad but honestly who cares about 1 vs 2 in the beast tourney. There is literally no team that"should" beat us but i guess avoiding sju could help but i wouldnt mind a revenge shot one last time
I hate the white uniforms. Most boring and dull uni we have. The golden chickens surely dont like gold much. Think they have worn gold at home like 4 times all year
Tarps in the student section. Come on.
Joey sticking to form

Tarps in the student section. Come on.
Students aren't into it as much as they used to be.
Good news: Gtown not pressuring much at all
Bad news: Markus still blindly throwing the ball backwards for easy opponent breakaways.

I do. I'd really rather have the late game Thursday. But I'm willing to sacrifice.
Sam with a defensive slam!
Gtown just raining from deep
Of course they turn into villanova from the 3. Jesus christ we are in need of a dominant win. Turn on the juice!
Being down right now okay because pace in game good and not a lot of turnovers by MU.
We just are not a good team right now
Keep waiting for the top 10 team we once were to show up. Missing a lot of shots and not getting good looks
Markus has been bad. So has everyone not named Sacar.
Wondering what Theo is supposed to do on defense.
Howard not playing well. Team is tight. Need a good sports psychologist right now.
not many turnovers but we still are playing like crap. brick city. I just really hope we pull this out, losing 4 in a row would be a tremendous buzzkill on what was a successful year......

They missed seven shots in a row. Need to wake up soon. And Joey misses a 25 footer.
Just once, I wish they could get a big lead, but these point drought things are frustrating and hopefully don't haunt them today. Crowd sounds like it's a funeral.

I will be more concerned if we were turning it over. If the pace is good and we are not giving up the ball we will be fine.
Howard sitting and the team again seems to be playing better
holy crap an and one for sacar. Did hell just freeze over. Good recovery after another classic no footer miss
We just can't get on a run
So many bricks.
Markus airballs a floater and then fouls the guy
It. Will. Not. Stop.
Markus is playing dumb ass hero ball again sit his ass
howard's wrist or groin injury has to be worse than it's being advertised. otherwise I have not clue what's happened to the kid, but wow has he been bad. we've been better with him on the bench
I mean im glad he played himself out of going pro this year but he can turn it back on any time now

We were even with him and without him. No noticable difference from a score standpoint. Again.
We do look a bit more composed though.

Yeah, I wasn't referring to just scoring.
Another smart shot by Markus
At least he hustled back on D
Honestly, what I'm watching is an okay game from us and Georgetown hitting a bunch of crazy shots

Agree. Harping on turnovers but formula is...
Win Turnover Battle + possessions > 67 = Marquette win.
Jesus christ joey has absolutely lost it
We cannot get over the hump
Up 1 with ball
Markus short arms a layup. Morrow misses put back. Missed two wide open 3s. Then we foul them 90 feet from hoop
I'm pretty sure that was a goaltend on Markus' layup
can't shoot the ball. this just isn't the same team....
With as many offensive rebounds as we have gotten and not have a lead and not be doing crazy turnovers. Not lookin good. Gonna be a nail biter if we got a chance at this
Quote from: Mike Deane's Seat Belt on March 09, 2019, 02:24:44 PM

I like Joey, but don't you think calling him Jesus Christ is going a bit far?
Hauser's are winners. Most valuable player on this team
well something positive to end the half. nice set up by wojo and shot by sam-like having the ball in sam's hand in that position
It feels like its been a long ass time since we closed the half on a positive note. Hopefully sam gets hungry second half.
Imo he needs as many looks as we can get him. Markus is not good markus once again.

I look at the opposite way. We've turned the ball over way less and are getting good shots. We are winning despite getting better looks and still being outshot because the areas that have plagued us the past 3 games haven't plagued us today
Killing em on the boards and in the TO battle. Fouls about even. They have a big advantage in eFG%. I think we get some regression to the mean on both ends and reverse those numbers in the second half.
What a clunker first half and yet they get a miracle three, Sam's only points.
Morrow and Bailey were fantastic and kept them in the game. Bailey has hit his last four threes. Morrow just a BEAST on boards.
Govan and Leblanc in foul trouble and MU only up two.
Why? Markus was just miserable. 3 for 13, no threes, half of his points from line and had MU's only two turnovers.
MU offensive rebounds, 10 to 2, only two turnovers, but 30% from field, 5 for 16 from three.
Wake up and get the win.

You're back! But Wojo is still here?
At half, #mubb 39, #Hoyas 37. eFG%: Hoyas 51.9%; Warriors 38.8%. Marquette has been great on the boards and has only 2 TOs. Weird game.
Just once I want us to extend the lead to 4 when we have the chance

There it is
It's like clockwork. Anytime Howard gets burned on D, he feels the need to try and make up for it on the next possession. Run the offense.
Finally get up 7
Immediately give up 7-0 run in 3 possessions.
Think we just blew our best chance. Time to pucker up them bungholes once again
This one is making me nervous. Gtown playing very well today, McClung might be the best player on the floor. it's gonna be close...
Theo is not allowed to play defense. It is beyond ridiculous
just unreal

Two Catholic schools battling. God throws a curveball and gives the momo all the glory?
Look at the ball movement on that last possession.

Amazing how that crap works isnt it.
Five threes in a row for Bailey after going 1 for 14. Good for him and Morrow on boards today.
Markus is 7 for his last 29 from field. Oh my.....that's 24%. Let's go. These offensive droughts are killing them and we haven't gotten to five minute mark yet.

Not sure. Thought he was in. Definitely out on the 2nd one.
Regardless. You're right the ball moves better if MH is not at the point. I dont think he is selfish but I dont think he has good vision at all.

You have been drinking too much Duke Kool-Aid!
Fairly decent production spread across the team. We are going to need Bailey at this or a similar level for a nice March and April run
Back to back missed lay ups cmon guys. Sacar again.
Luckily Morrow is eating glass
Seriously what is sacars problem with these finishes. Its plagued him all year
if only sacar could consistently finish his drives
Chance to go up 9 and Markus rushes a floater
Gtown scores
back to 5.
MH sprints down the floor and jacks up a bad 3 pointer. Thank god for Ed today.
Come on Markus, need you now
Keep sending the wrong guys to the line.
Please put Sam back in soon
Keep missing free throws
There is absolutely no killer instinct in this team right now
8 point lead gone.
Sit howard the fukkk down
Seems like jacking up shots just to shoot
Howard gets smoked by another 3, takes the ball and sprints to the other end to miss a layup.
Run. The. Offense. Please.
Up six with ball, then nothing, another drought and keep fouling them.
Missed free throws just killing them. Missed 8 already, along with Sacar missing three layups.
Drought continues and now tied. Lets go guys. Their two bigs, Govan and Leblanc fouling and benched and this game is tied?
cannot remember a kid who has been so fantastic all year just self destruct like this. we are better with him on the bench right now
We need Sam in the game
Georgetown having their best 3 point shooting day of the year it seems like. Frustrating game.
I think our defense has been exceptional today. Georgetown just making some real tough shots.
Offense has been putrid.
This team has gone from exciting to watch all year to just brutal. Lookin like we should accept a bid to the NIT pretty soon. Absolutely no excuse for an at home loss to gtown after a 3 game slide when depaul ( albeit much improved) absolutely murdered this team the other night.

Yeah honestly it's just boring mediocre play. Hard to get into
4 on Markus now
This team simply sucks.
Isn't that a hook and hold on Akinjo?
Akinjo just can't miss
Well we may find out the question that was asked last game. Should Wojo have kept Markus out.
Markus has gone from long end of an nba bench type career to better start practicing that Italian asap career in no time
Dumb foul by MH
We cannot make anything.
Brick after brick.
here we go again???????
Howard can't guard Akinjo. their guards are amazing. I hope they're only 2 year players
No offense being executed right now. Wojo needs to draw up a bunny out of this timeout
9 missed free throws, Markus shooting 25%, 4 fouls and Uh Oh, its the five minute mark.
5 minute mark,here we go!
Hope the server goes down if we lose cuz this place is bout to implode
And on queue. Nice joey
7-1 Gtown run since Markus 3 put us up 3
This team looks soooo tight, like a team playing not to lose.
Bailout call
lmao cant get any help from refs either
So they are just going to call a foul on every layup now?
Classic Joey travel.
This team is done
Another foul lmao
They have 3 guys with 4 fouls. Attack the fing rim!!
Akinjo travels, no call. Then a BS bail out foul.
McClung fouled every time. 10 for 12 from line.
Game fukkking over. Their gonna get frees every time down now.
Get this fukking team to the NIT tourney stat
Sacar at the free throw line. Ugh.
Sacar would it kill you to make a goddamn bunny at the rim. Contact or not
I remember when we used to win games that turned into free throw contests....
just pathetic
Seen this movie before. Don't like the ending.
Apparently McClung is Michael Jordan with the calls he's gotten all half. Totally out of control and no contact and 2 free throws every time.
Quote from: nyg on March 09, 2019, 03:35:09 PM

As it should.
Their freshmen guards now exactly what to do; attack the rim and make free throws. We have know clue...looking at the future of the BEast here
Markus, make me eat crow. Show everyone why you were/are a player of the year candidate
They haven't played good since February 23rd
Game turned off here. Hope u true diehards show what a poor fan i am. Hey it worked for davidson.
My man! Sacar made 4-4
Foul. Every. Single. Drive.
Put Jamal in.
That was all ball. Not even close to a foul.
Some of ya'll acting like the game is over. Relax. 3 minutes is a ton of time.
There was no foul there. None. Refs are just blowing the whistle every time they attempt a layup
Quote from: skianth16 on March 09, 2019, 03:37:10 PM
As it should.
Yeah just shut down a random sports board if people get pissy. Cant hurt peoples feelings
Jamal! Get some!
Very smart, sam
The one time we can't get a board
67 free throw attempts so far. Holy crap
And another five minute mark loose ball lost leading to a basket.
How do they let their pg get the rebound/put back
Just gotta keep driving. They're calling fouls every time.

Markus alone with a 6 point swing.....
howard loses ball at end of game again
Ball game
Markus fu cking sucks
every single close game. Every single one
Thanks Marcus
Let. The. Hausers. Eat.
They're winners, let them take you to the promise land
That unforced TO by Markus was pretty bad. Time to make up for it...
Kinda hope markus declares. Greg and koby better fit for the team
Hoping for overtime
Two guys drop the rebound
you cannot make this crap up
Quote from: Johnny B on March 09, 2019, 03:48:11 PM

???
Good foul by theo
can't secure the rebound. what a nightmare
Sam almost literally throws it away.
This is 4 games of insanity.
Wish sam would have kept that ball
HAHAHAHAHHAA MARKUS CHOKES AT THE LINE AGAIN.
Choke
They are who we thought they were.
Markus has missed key free throws vs Nova, Creighton and Gtown.
All with a chance to cut the lead to 1
I have honestly never seen a team and player self destruct so bad
Jesus. Im glad i dont have tickets for msg. This team is better suited for the nit.
10 missed free throws.

Fire Wojo ASAP,
Oh, this place is gonna get interesting.....that was really bad.
Good game ... bad result!
Wojo doesnt deserve a big east championship, and he doesnt deserve another year as head coach. He is not a leader.
this team sucks
With eveything else that WAS a foul today..... that last play wasn't. Oh, my. A foul is a foul.
For sure a foul at the end. Terrible no-call. This team is destined for unranked on monday, and rightfully so. I think we fall to 8/9 game in the tourney. what a sad slide we've witnessed here over the past 2 weeks...
just hit the self destruct button. howard has played like absolute trash, big east player of year my ass. coach needs to straighten things out and he has FAILED in every possible way.
refs in the big east suck absolute balls too
This team is fucking atrocious. Wojo acting like a little bitch at the end of the game. Sorry Wojo, that was not a foul. Recruit a real point guard you dunce. My excitement for the tournament is gone.
Refs are never gonna call a foul in that situation with 2 seconds left. They just dont..

There were absolutely fouls on that last rebound. Certainly more obvious of fouls than some of the call McClung was getting.
That being said, not why they lost. Missed some open looks they normally make, Georgetown hit some really tough shots. It happens. It happening as part of a 4 game losing streak? That doesn't just happen.

Agree on all points, brother TAMU. Sam got tackled - so obvious that even the commentators said so - but we lost the game plenty of times on our own.
Ugh...
This team has had its pretty boy puckered since Nova. They're scared and opponents know it. Markus is a ball hog, teammates have lost interest (see Joey's demeanor). Dude suffocates the O cause he has no conscience. We forgive him because he scores a lot. His Assist to TO ratio in the last 4 games is bleak. Wojo can't manage big egos and it's unraveling. If Markus gets hot things may be OK but if not early exit and we dream of Kobe resolving ALL issues....which he won't. #LeagueMe 😂😂😂
