Extremely doubtful but I hope you're right.
I mean honestly it's a toss up
Probably true. Then the wojo lovers can have their ammo for the next 3 months as we struggle.

Not sure if there's a spread yet, but I'll give you MU+7.
$500 goes to a charity of your choice, or $500 goes to a charity of mine?
Also a ban on scoop for 30 days.
Deal?
Nothing to see here, folks. Just a High Volume Wojo Guy trying to drown out the very deserved criticisms of Wojo after a complete ass kicking.

Future Hall of Fame coach coming in, should be a walk in the park for them...
Spread will be 1 either way or a PK. I'd also bet on an MU win.
Marquette is not going to beat Villanova on Saturday. Even if we won tonight at Creighton we'd still lose to Nova on Saturday. They are coming in to form and they have a lot more talent then we do.

Non sense. The disparity between any BE team isn't that much. Anyone can beat anyone. I'd say Nova at home is a 50 50.

The general rule of thumb is that home court gives you about 3 points, right? So with than in mind, I'd guess we're a +4 to +6 on Saturday.

Don't forget about Billy...we're all the same...oh and like 10 other people at least.
On paper, I like the Nova matchup. We match up well with them size wise and they have a very short bench, only really like to run six guys out there was a 7th playing the role of warm body. Friendly whistle at home, draw some some early fouls (which we are very good at, despite tonight) and Nova could be in a lot of trouble. Wojo needs a different game plan than tonight. It's very tempting to over commit on defending the three vs. Nova because they shoot a lot of them but they are a lot more deadly inside the arc. Keep the bigs home, let JRE shoot threes, and defend the lane.

It's funny, looking at Mutaman's posts through Badger boards and others, he has the same retort to anyone he doesn't like. He rips them as unstable mentally, rips them for not being liberal, or will throw out a racial charge. Whether it s here, several Badger boards, several legal boards, etc....always the same retort from you. I'd call it a pattern, but I don't pretend to be a psychologist like you like to pretend.
Were you upset by today's Oregon loss...how about the tough Rider game yesterday?
I've gone more than 30 days posting here in the past, can certainly do it again. When MU plays at Uw ho giddy do you get? LOL.
As for the bet, I laid out that we will win...something you and others say I am a fool for even saying. We have no chance according to some of you. We are inept, not coached, our team sucks, etc. Well, then take your money and make a boatload and on MU losing...get your local bookie.

Had probably 10 bets over the years here and always paid them off when I rarely lost. Tough loss today for your Badgers...so sad...sad trombone.

Fact. Creighton beat Marquette by a lot tonight.
Opinion. Creighton is way better than Marquette.
I think by the end of the season we will have the higher seed and better KenPom ranking than Creighton. This too is also an opinion.

That's about what i thought. Like most bully's - all talk and no action.
"just fill in a different current leader's name." Want to translate that into english?
So in the past two hours you have been called out twice on your statements and both times you backed down.
First half will be close since 'Nova will not take us seriously. How could they after Creighton? Second half will determine the game. Why didn't Wojo have them ready for Creighton? If it takes a blow out to get them ready how many blow outs will we need to have a winning conference record? We have had 3 so far.
No way we beat Nova, A premier coach with players equal or better, where do we have an advantage?
We should have an advantage at center, but we get no scoring from that spot,and I think those guys have hit their ceiling Let Symir run the point, what have we got to lose
It sure is a hell of a lot more entertaining reading the barbs thrown back and forth between Cheeky and Mutationman than watching Wojo get his ass handed to him by a mid major such as Creighton. Anything to deflect from the ongoing inability of Wojo to coach Mu to victory against teams that are not cupcakes. Looks like the swoon we had in conference last month of last season capped off by Hausergate is continuing into this season
But hey, Wojo has us trending in an upward projection.

I'll bet $1000 dollars (given to charity, of course) that you have more posts on Indiana boards in the last 10 years than Mutaman has on Wisconsin boards over the same period. Man up, it's for charity, Striped Red Tomato.
If MU is going to run the table at home in the BE, Saturday is a pretty important game. In reading BE predictions it seems that many feel the home schedule should be a sweep and the boys need to steal a couple on the road to meet most predictions.
Nova is another quick team. I'm guessing the stat line for Jayce will be 4 minutes 5 fouls.

Agree with this wholeheartedly! Not saying we're incapable of beating Villanova and it wouldn't shock me if we did but I've come to the conclusion that the problem is not so much Wojo and simply the fact that Markus aside, our other players just flat out aren't as good as we want them to be. We are an extremely one dimensional incomplete team, With little ability to score in the paint other than Markus' runners. We have no transition game whatsoever and were completely exposed last night by a much much more balanced team in every facet of the game. It was very apparent to me with 13 min to go in first half that we had virtually no chance of beating them unless we shot 60% from three

This thread is what we all needed after another Wojo beatdown (not the part about us beating Nova).

yes but Chico, through grueling detective work, has discovered my dirty little secret-- I'm a Cincinnati Reds fan.
7 points to Marquette. I may be in on that one.
KenPom makes it MU -2. Lines are typically pretty close. I'd bet it opens MU -1 and gets bet down to a PK. I'll be laying money on MU.
I would have bet Creighton last night if I bet against my favorite teams.
Sweet. Beating Nova again gets Wojo a contract renewal and another participation ribbon in the NCAA tourney.

I have zero expectation of beating Nova Saturday. IF MU wins, then good. Finally. Something nice about the already dull season. 6 years is a long time to wallow in mediocrity, but if that is the direction the program is going, then I guess this year is as good of a year to start it.

Given that Wojo basically bench John for the game, I think it is safe to say John was not playing the way Wojo wanted him to.
This MU team does not look good and I feel it is mostly due to John and McEwen not playing well. Is that Wojo's fault? I certainly thought they would be playing better.
I more blame Wojo for the lack of Big East caliber players on this team than I do for his game coaching.

In retrospect I think Jayce was a bad idea. Have a feeling he is stunting Theo's growth. There was no reason to add depth to that position.

Going into last night's game, John was averaging 19.4 minutes per game. Last year he averaged 19.7 minutes per game. An additional big was added because we lost Heldt. TJ is foul prone and having another body soak up fouls is part of the play here I should think.

I get that. But as I said I think it stunted his *growth.* He is playing less and shooting worse. Hasn't taken that next step and has actually regressed so far. And they didn't need a grad transfer to replace Matt's 6.4 mpg.

Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers..

Some of that is because he's got a bad wrist. He might have regressed a little but its hard for me to say how much due to his injury and how much is due to other.

Take a look at the Paint Touches article....yes Theo played poorly in the Creighton game, but some of it was also the approach, Theo was on the perimeter or near it on every defensive position. Wojo needed to sag Theo and/or go to a 2-3 in some instances to change the looks. I think the game results against Creighton were a combination of a couple of players having bad games and Wojo not adjusting.
FYI, we have plenty of Big East talent on this team....one game doesn't reflect the team we have

You would think adding quality competition at the position would make someone improve. Why would it make him play worse if the minutes played is essentially the same?

Because their role has changed. Perhaps its mental. I would have understood the add if we were talking about someone whos post offense balanced out Theo's defense. But Jayce is even worse offesively. Maybe they just needed the body with the Hausers transferring. And that's fine I guess.

I wish you, your wife and your unborn all the best in this. I know a little bit of the condition you describe and realize the importance of what you are going through. We've been fortunate and my daughter is doing well, turns 18 this week and off to college soon....but she has to deal with it the rest of her life including some not so great complications down the road.

Sorry, you said MAY have amniotic band syndrome. My brother's daughter had amniotic band syndrome. It showed on the ultrasound sound at 12 weeks. She was born with webbed feet which were surgically repaired.

Ditto for me. Never been happier to be wrong. It's a damn good thing we shot 55% in the first half. That 8+ min scoring drought in the 2nd was painful. Result could have been much different were it not for the 18 point cushion we had going into the half. Still pretty worried about this team's relative inability to score in the paint which will continue to be a problem in games when are shots aren't falling at the % age we're accustomed to.
Quote from: Norm on January 01, 2020, 10:53:27 PM
Marquette is not going to beat Villanova on Saturday. Even if we won tonight at Creighton we'd still lose to Nova on Saturday. They are coming in to form and they have a lot more talent then we do.

Oh, it has to be the latter, for sure.
Actually, they looked so bad against Creighton I thought there's no way they'd turn it around before Saturday. Plus, they also got destroyed by Maryland earlier, so a team with talent, although young, like Villanova, made me very nervous going in to the game.

Our conference is a bitch if you have a bubble team. A very good team would this conference with 3-4 losses. This year it looks to me that there are a lot of 6-8 seeds in our conference. I am not sure a bunch teams at roughly .500% makes it a bitch over the long haul, but definitely entertaining.
Goose, looking around college basketball, there are no super teams. This could be a year where a 6 seed gets hot and wins the whole thing.

I think this is correct. I'd also note, Duke is maybe the one elite team this year. Some will call it parity, but it's closer to mediocrity. If you look at KenPom's top offensive and defensive teams, outside Duke and Kansas, each of those teams are pretty meh on the other side of the ball. That can change between now and March, but the landscape in college basketball at the moment is a lot of meh

No one despises Virginia basketball more than me. Last years team was a great team with few flaws. They were a top 5 KenPom offensive and defensive team and had multiple NBA players. Did they have a horseshoe up there rear end during the tournament? Yup, but they were still a great team.
As of now, only Duke is a top 10 KenPom offense and defense.

Mayo is great. My brother-in-law (MU grad) has to go there once a quarter for treatment...they take great care of him. Hoping for the best with you and the family.
What sort of treatment?

Kidney. Infusion therapy. He just got back Saturday from his latest treatment. As going to Cleveland Clinic, now goes to Mayo.
