Let's go now! I fully expect a solid W today.
-
Butler can play some D.
Hoping we really bring it today though and hit shots early and often. Would like to not have to sweat it.
But this is no gimme
-
Start off strong inside, rebound and defend! Go Marquette!!
-
Badgers lose,and the great Porter goes down!! Oh will no longer be ripe today!! Go Warriors!!
-
Daryl on that first shot has to look to use his size and strength to muscle the pull up.
Not do some weird fading floater.
Offense not attacking yet
-
Ah yes, the opponent getting an offensive rebound 8 feet away from the basket. My favorite play to watch
-
No excuse for not getting those long rebs.
-
No excuse for not getting those long rebs.
The first one on that long possession that Harris got wasnt much we could do. That was the nature of our defense and close outs. Ball went directly to him.
-
When Butler is shooting bricks that are firing all the way back to the elbow, yeah we arent gonna get every defensive rebound
-
Can't any player jump and grab a rebound? Why does it seem like half of their rebounds are loose balls on the floor?
-
What?? But JLew needs to recognize the double quicker and move the basketball.
-
Justin has to stop with the elbow hook.
And we need to look alive on offense
-
MU just gets outhustled on the rebounds
-
This is a god awful start
-
When Bryce Nze was a senior in high school, we were short guys for our old man Wednesday night pickup games at a local middle school. The son of one of our guys brought a bunch of his friends to play with us, including Bryce. Great kid. Plus he was on the receiving end of the only pass I ever made that ended in a dunk.
-
Sleepwalking so far
-
We look catatonic out there in all facets of the game. An extremely disappointing and anemic start. Mistakes and mental breakdowns.
-
No rebound = no win.
-
Poor shot selection, poor rebounding. Not good. Need to settle down on both ends. Let’s Go Marquette!
-
The rebounding is simply maddening.
-
picked butler in this one cuz we havent had a bad loss in forever. that being said butler freaking sucks and it would hyrt to loose
-
They wont miss from 3 and we cant grab a rebound when they do miss.
Gonna get boat raced if it doesnt shift fast.
-
Good grief.
-
This is a fu cking joke.
-
As Nads wood sey, "We are Marquette," don't ya no, hey?
-

I predicted in another thread that Marquette would have a clunker in the final 6 games. So far, this looks like the clunker.
-
MU just gets outhustled on the rebounds
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
-
After reading how bad Butler is on offense, I fully expect them to shoot 73% percent from 3 today. Old habits die hard
I realize quoting yourself is not cool, but….
-
MU should just tap out
-
They are 6/8 from 3 and scored i think on 12 stragith possessions.
-
Starting to wake up?
-
MU should just tap out
Vadgers lost to Rutgers
-
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
And that makes being down 15 points to a bad team better?
-
It's like watching Coach Bud's 3-point defense.
-
this is good.
-
Think this one ends up being a big wake up call for the team. The “gauntlet” was way over rated and these games down the stretch will be much more difficult.
-
Butler averages like 60 pts a game. I know they've made everything but we look like we're on skates out there. We better get it together and in a hurry. Stop the freaking ball, that's should be priority #1.
-
Here we go. Playing like crap against a crap team. Ass kicking time. Terrible defense. Down by 15 to this team shows our colors. No clue.
A 4 seed? Better pick it up here or back to bubble.
-
Dang, same feeling I had at the beginning of UCONN. Thankfully it’s Butler. Let’s Go, step up the motors!
-
3 straight quarters of terrible team defense and anemic scoring from Morsell and Kolek.
-
Doing nothing right so far. Must change. Butler shooting like pros. Unreal. Can’t continue. We need a run….. starting now
-
Maybe Silverback was on to something...
-
Here we go. Playing like crap against a crap team. Ass kicking time. Terrible defense. Down by 15 to this team shows our colors. No clue.

-
Glad I took the first half over, although I wish the score was flipped.
-
Butler has the ball all the time. Need to get a rebound
-
3 straight quarters of terrible team defense and anemic scoring from Morsell and Kolek.
I didn't even know those two guys were playing.
-
That's a good huddle by Jordan. Just keep doing what you're doing.
-
Terrible defense so far.
-
Well, at least we’re rebounding the hell out of it.
-
frustratinf to watch a sh it team dominate us. the d has been bad tho
-
Shooting 75% from 3 including 2 prayers.
-
So far. Violence:
Butler - Yes
Marquette - zip.
-
Okay, that rebound we should and needed to have.
-
this is gross cant get one stop
-
And that makes being down 15 points to a bad team better?
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
-
Rebound the unnatural carnal knowledgeing ball
-
Butler has scored on 9 straight possessions. 24 points.
-
Just foreit if this is gonna be the effort.
-
We're getting bludgeoned. This is beyond upsetting. Time to punch back.
Omg Kolek's J.
-
Lousiest defensive rebounding team ever.
-
A rebound!
-
Down 18 and we got Omax and Kolek launching 3s.
Stop shooting off the bounce Tyler. You cant do it.
-
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
Down 20 now.
-
Golden just shoved Kuath out of the way for the rebound. Need to be stronger.
-
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
We're about to lose to a team worse than rutgers, so please tell me how your little brain thinks this is better
-
Well, it could be setting up a great comeback story for the 10:00 news
-
We are over helping on defense right now.
-
We are down by 20 with 9:32 to go in the first half. So bad.
-
Butler on pace to score 138 against us.
-
Well - it’s not the refs
-
Will we ever get a stop?? WTF??
-
Thankfully there is nowhere to go but up!
-
Are we allowed to swear?
-
‘Cause I want to
-
Down 20 now.
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
-
That drive by Kam cant even be described by words.
Just feed Justin and see what happens
-
Down 20 now.
Not much that's more pathetic than going to the message board of a team you don't like to troll. Just trying to contemplate how empty and sad your life must be.
-
Two huge threes by JLew. Time to get back into this game and for people to wake the H up.
-
horrific start but butler sucks and wont play as well in the next half. get to 10 or less at half and its a game
-
Really like what Kur brings to the table but he is just such a bad rebounder. Think we will be better off going small this game.
-
Thankfully there is nowhere to go but up!

Couple strong boards, Butler looks a bit out of sorts, things settling down from those scorching and ice cold starts.
-
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
stop spamming sh it man
-
Not much that's more pathetic than going to the message board of a team you don't like to troll. Just trying to contemplate how empty and sad your life must be.
He is a clown. But right now, he isn't wrong.
-
2 games in a row we look way better with both KK and Oso on the bench.
-
Someone just got a hole in one at the Waste Management Open on the famous 16th hole and chaos erupted. Tourney was stopped while they clean up the green from all the bottles being thrown.
-
Definitely going to need a big man next year
-
As sad as it is.
The mission is get it to 10 at half. We got a shot then.
Focus on winning the last 6:50 by 4+
-

Yep. Allowing them 31 pts in 10 mins is simply beyond analysis.

Hot take…this will end in a mind numbing loss or a game that gets Justin Lewis a few steps closer to leaving college early
-
Vadgers lost to Rutgers.
naturally we’ll lose too.
-
Omax just a brutal travel. Go up strong dude.
Butler drills another 3.
Kam with another wild layup..
Butler another dunk
Back to 19.
PITIFUL
-
Vadgers lost to Rutgers today.
MU down 38-19 to an awful Butler team.
-
Welp, hate to say it, but it is unacceptable to get beat down the court like that. Here’s to a second half for us like Butler is having. Step it up boys!
-
Wow. I'm absolutely astounded by this performance thus far.
-
MU down 38-19 to an awful Butler team.
Vadgers lost to Rutgers today.
-
Really starting to dislike this Golden guy. Like to the level of my dislike of Golden Tate
-
Vadgers lost to Rutgers today.
Can you please stop?
-
Wow. I'm absolutely astounded by this performance thus far.
It’s safe to say that butler “brought the fight” to us today.
-
tip the cap. butler gonna have a season high points today. they look amazing.
-
Felt this game coming - god this blows
-
Wow. I'm absolutely astounded by this performance thus far.
Lack of hustle/effort in this one is really disturbing. That's on Shaka.
-
You know what’s great? Vadgers got smoked.
-
Butler averages 56 points a game - they may get there by halftime.
-
Stop quoting the douchebag please and thanks
-
Lets just keep shooting off the bounce 3s. Its really working
-
You know what’s great? Vadgers got smoked.
It’s embarrassing that people find this to be a silver lining.
-
Thought we’d avoid a game like this the rest of the year. But we’re down 21 and it could be worse.
-
Bloodbath. Unreal.
-
Piss piss poor defense. Thought that was Smarts forte.
-
Butler is playing at a very high level. Out of their minds how they are passing and shooting.
-
Getting our clocks cleaned in every facet of the game. We completely lost our composure and that just can't happen.
Win this 4 mins and refocus for the 2nd half.
-
Cut it to 20 before the under 4:00 in the first half. Didn’t expect that sentence to be a thing today
-
UConn showed the way to defend us. Guard everyone one one one and don't leave your man.
-

Defense has been terrible this year.
-
Someone just got a hole in one at the Waste Management Open on the famous 16th hole and chaos erupted. Tourney was stopped while they clean up the green from all the bottles being thrown.
When I got my one and only lifetime hole in one on that hole there were no bottles thrown.
-
UConn showed the way to defend us. Guard everyone one one one and don't leave your man.
Yep. Butler is stronger too.
-
Even Justin’s mentality is off. It’s so early, c’mon boys!
-
If Daryl is gonna just keep launching out of rhythm 3s get his ass off the court.
You got Greg open a much better shooter. You dribble and pull up to barely hit iron.
-
Thats it. Keep jacking up 3s
-
At this point, I'll take a single digit loss just to save the computer numbers.
No sugarcoating it, this is an awful performance.
-
Lavin is such a brutal listen when your team is playing poorly
-

Maybe.....but what about the 31 pts we allowed in 10 mins? To a garbage offensive team?
-
It’s embarrassing that people find this to be a silver lining.
be embarrassed.
-
Hero ball, no passing, not closing out under control...its like they forgot what got them to where they are.
-

🤷🏼♂️
-
Lazy rebounding. Down 19 and watching the ball bounce to Butler. Things have to change - me tally and physically. We are out of sorts in every way so far. Whew
-
Hopefully this Wojo team performance isn’t a sign of a Wojo like late season collapse.
-
be embarrassed.
That I share an alma mater with you? Definitely.
-
Looks like last years team,running all over chasing wide open 3 point shots,and going g down for opponents
-
be embarrassed.
i agree. most imoportant thing is bucky losing one game. why does anyone care if we win or not lol
-
Lavin is such a brutal listen when your team is playing poorly
Touche. Brutal may even be kind.
-
Morsell just needs to play less on the road.
-
Is it time to re-examine the strength and conditioning program if we fade down the stretch again this year?
-
Daryl is off the court. No maybe we can have some team offense. Or at least one that runs through Justin.
-
I actually think MU will make a game out of this.
-

Seriously?
-
Bring Joplin in!!
-
Bring Joplin in!!
To make the defense worse?
-
I actually think MU will make a game out of this.
Just dont see it.
As bad as the D has been. Weve actually gotten a good amount of stops the last 8 or so minutes.
The offense is horrendously rushed possession after possesion. They have it in their minds they need to chuck quick. When in reality if we ran real offense the last 3 possessions we are down like 13
-
We're just not there mentally and that really hasn't happened for an entire half since St.B. We went into panic mode for no reason known to man. Move the basketball and take high percentage shots.
-
Upset in the Big Ten? I wonder which game
-
I actually think MU will make a game out of this.
Pass the crack pipe
-
Hopefully this Wojo team performance isn’t a sign of a Wojo like late season collapse.
Wojo's problems were two-fold. He was good at setting up a system he could win with, but bad at coming up with a backup plan once other teams figured out a way to stop them from doing what they wanted to do.
Second, he built teams with a key flaw that could be exploited by other teams.
It would seem that UCONN and Butler found a way to stop MU from doing what it wants to do. Let's see how they respond.
-
That I share an alma mater with you? Definitely.
very mature of you. Not to mention passing judgement on someone you don’t know. Incredible.
-
Does anyone know if the badgers lost today? that would make me feel better about this game!
-
Seriously?
Yes. S&C play a huge part of every athletic program. IF, and I say IF, we fade again, part of that may be due to fatigue from the season. And we have faded down the stretch a lot recently. Maybe its something to see if we can do better there.
-
very mature of you. Not to mention passing judgement on someone you don’t know. Incredible.
Deal with it.
-
Good defense on Lewis by Oso on that last inbounds
-
You’ve got to think Butler’s shooting comes back to earth in the second half. Let’s hope Shaka can make some adjustments on D and get these guys to rebound.
-
Can you please stop?
Deal with it.
-

Todd smith has been here for 15 years, I think he knows what he's doing
-
Good defense on Lewis by Oso on that last inbounds
I think that's the 2nd time this year he has blown up an end-of-half play on offense. He shouldn't be out there I he's going to be a liability.
-
Lol at Lewis tossing the headband. At least he's got heart!
-
That last inbounds play of the half pretty much summed up the way it’s gone so far. 😳
-
LOL
Fu cking OSO runs to the ball and knocks it from Justin.
Justin looking like he wants to declare at half.
Love the fire though.
Just an embarrassing half of incompetence.
Shakas job at the half is simple. Tell any guy that settles for launched 3s not off a pass, they are going to sit. Attack the damn paint and we can make a push.
-

Fair enough. We played a competitive game on the road against UConn and probably our worst half of basketball this year so just seems like worrying about a Wojo-esque fade is a bit presumptious.
-
WTH was that?
We will make a game of this but have no business whatsoever being down 15. Why we panicked is a fking mystery but we did and it cost us dearly.
-
very mature of you. Not to mention passing judgement on someone you don’t know. Incredible.
That’s what this guy does.
-
Deal with it.
Ok. I’ll just put you on ignore. Won’t miss much.
-
Need to score first in second half - that brings this game more in range. Very important half time adjustments need to come now from Shaka and team.
-
Marquette is a good team, not a great team. To their credit, they were down 31-11 at one point and finished the half 16-11. Not great but good enough that they’re very much in this game.
They may not comeback but I appreciate the fight after taking early haymakers
-
MU second half -6.5 (-110).
-
Jables1604, did the badgers lose to rutgers today?
-
Let's see how the team responds to this.
Game isn't over. Cut it to 7 or 8 by the 10 minute mark and see what happens.
-
So…MU played an entire half without the opponent being in the bonus. At least there is that.
-
LOL

Yup. There’s a chance to show some real character and toughness.

The original poster who brought up the badgers was just poking at the badger troll. Not sure why some took that as a silver lining that MU was getting their ass kicked.
-
It’s all effort, thankfully they can change it and are in control of it.
-
Ok. I’ll just put you on ignore. Won’t miss much.
Wahhhhhhh
-

-
The original poster who brought up the badgers was just poking at the badger troll. Not sure why some took that as a silver lining that MU was getting their ass kicked.
Because it was brought up by multiple posters not even responding to the troll.
Not to mention it was dumb and unfunny.
-
we cut it to 15 with 20 minutes to go after some time in the locker room with shaka talking to them. I like our chances. we have faced adversity before. our culture and our defense (after some adjustments) should give us a chance.
respond. win anyway. get lost in the fight.
-
The 2 centers give you absolutely nothing, Oso is weak . Then when both of your guards bring you nothing, can not win. Trying to figure out why no one has changed Kolek shot, absolutely no arch.
-
Yes. Tell a team to stop shooting. That will work.

Once again cant read. Incredible
-

Pretty much. You don’t run an offense in college basketball without shooting threes off the pass.
-

It’s not so much a silver lining as it is like watching your house burning down and turning around to see the nice sunset
-

Overhauling someone's shot is not something that's going to happen during the season.
-

I think his practice shot must look different than his game shot, because he is money in practice and Coach wants him to shoot more.
-
Once again cant read. Incredible
Lol. Keep lying.

I genuinely get surprised when Kolek makes a jumper

FBM is on a mission lately to constantly look like the dumbest guy on any thread.
Its embarrassing but also entertaining.

Deal with it.
I suppose so
-
Now THIS is something you know about...
-
Overhauling someone's shot is not something that's going to happen during the season.
If you ever seen the shooting machine, if he would work with that he would have to arch the ball?
-
Sh*t happens, gang. Especially with college kids.
Hopefully they make a game of it, but I'm not changing my thoughts on them based on what happens tonight.

Der's lotsa dudes heer hoo will bea eaton plates of chit after wee pull dis game out ar asses, hey?

I know basketball is knew to you. But spoiler alert. Taking off the dribble 3s is not the only way "shoot" in basketball.
Id give back your degree. Assuming you got one.

Should we consider going small to come out for the 2nd half with our best offensive team?
-
Down 17, MU had three possessions to cut the lead and Butler was cold. Three jack up threes and Shaka had to call time out. But, that has been his offensive scheme all year and it just didn't work out. Two of them drop and whole new ballgame.
I am more pissed off at the transition baskets Butler had with MU players flat footed. At least three of them
MU 3 for 13 from three, Butler started hot, but cooled off. 7 for 16.
Kur/Oso had one rebound. At least they are consistent week after week. Brutal consistent. 24 -14 Butler.
Kolek is invisible last two games

-

I think that could be a good idea.
We have to look to get post ups and attacks at the rim. Justin can back these guys down at will. Omax and Daryl(when he wants to stop hositing contested shots) can beat their guy too.
Hell, Greg has even done it a couple times.
15 is doable with patient offense. We came back down 17 to Creighton to send to OT and that was less than an entire half

I know Kur and Oso are lean but the lack of rebounding considering their length and athleticism is just stunning.

maybe over the top, but if you live in WI, you’ll agree UW fans are insufferable. Hence, anytime they drop an L, mention worthy.

When you're correctly spelling on a sports message board when cell phones have had auto correct for 15 years, you know you just got bodied.
You truly are a dumbass. You dont know basketball and still cannot read.
-
Let's just all calm down. I know I'm not exactly the poster child for stress free MU hoops observations but we're all on the same side. And we can absolutely come back in this game if we just focus and get back to playing the way we know we can. Attack the rim, move the basketball, stop getting shredded off the bounce on the defensive end.
-
Feels like im watching the other college team playing next to Fiserv..
-

If they play with max effort.

FIFY
-
This loss hurts mostly because we had a shot to be a top 5 seed if we handled business.
They didn't even give themselves a shot to win in the 2nd half. They were do for a stinker, but there isn't much for quality wins available. Only games that hurt the resume to lose.
Not much room to move up, only down.
Oh well.

And only shoot early shot clock contested 3s. Bad coaching to suggestion a different plan of attack.

They didn't even give themselves a shot to win in the 2nd half. They were do for a stinker, but there isn't much for quality wins available. Only games that hurt the resume to lose.
Not much room to move up, only down.
Oh well.
Can you see the future?
-
Let's just all calm down. I know I'm not exactly the poster child for stress free MU hoops observations but we're all on the same side. And we can absolutely come back in this game if we just focus and get back to playing the way we know we can. Attack the rim, move the basketball, stop getting shredded off the bounce on the defensive end.
I am perfectly calm. I find PG’s “no shoot” offense to be an incredibly interesting idea.
I mean I guess I don’t know basketball enough to figure out how to come back from behind without shooting.

Finally
-
Count that!!! Let's go now!! D the Hell up!!
-
WTF is wrong with Kolek? Dude has been not himself last two games
-
Damn. Thought that was in.
-
why are the player back out? I thought the game was over?
-
Wheel bee leadin' at da 10 minute mark, aina?
-
Butler playing so much slower in the first few minutes
-
Good grief. Three touch fouls on one possession?
-
5 fouls in 1:30
\
-
Have gotten killed on that screen roll.
-
Wheel bee leadin' at da 10 minute mark, aina?
Doubtful.
-
keep jackin morsell
-
Would you go zone a bit?
-
Getting less than zero from Kur today
-
Good Kam needs to make an appearance
-
Maybe that gets DM on track but we can't win if we can't secure the D-Glass.
-
I don't get Shaka's love with kam
-
Everything about our rebounding is very poor, every facet. It’s…still…early…!
-
Would love to see Joplin get some time here
-
I don't get Shaka's love with kam
Kam is a baller
-
just cant get it under 10
-
Need to get close enough to get Butler puckering.
Separately, I’m going out on a limb and predict MU will not get their second straight half with the opponent not making it to the Bonus
-
just cant get it under 10
My wife commented hey it’s only 10, to which I said it just doesn’t feel that close.
-
Well, keep going into every under time out +3 from the last one. And we will at least enter the final 4 minutes with a shot
-
Good that ESPN lost the box score so I can't see the rebounding discrepancy. (Though Justin got fouled on that one that went OB.)
-
Getting less than zero from Kur today
So disappointing after someone mentioned in another thread that Butler has been blocked on 14% of their attempts this season. He’s been invisible.
-
The last butler BS possession makes me think it’s not happening today
-
Over Kur can't play today,Iggy is just as bad
-

I know he’s had moments, but I am not a Morsell fan. I get it, he needs to be out there, but man he just makes some questionable decisions for all big defender and senior.
-
Exposed.
-
We really stunk up showtime
-
I fully realize this is petty, but 41’s shooting form could literally be used to defecate.
-
All of a sudden I don’t wanna watch this this team get slaughtered in March.
-
Exposed.
Yourself as a complete dipsh*t? Correct.
-
Joplin needs to be in. Run things through Greg and Jop.
-
Tyler stayed on the bus. At least they’re playing defense today….
-
has butler blown out anyone all season. this is a disgrace. embarrasing
-
I thought Butler would wake up at half and realize they are Butler but they continue to sink 3s
unconsciously
-
Some of you 😂

Do us all a favor and just stop watching now.
-
Lukosius shoots 28% from 3 for the year. Hits 2 and Lavin starts waxing poetically about him as the hot hand and talks about NBA flavor like he’s Bogdanovich. Dude LOVES this sound of his own voice.
-

Practice makes perfect, hey?
-

I’m sorry but this loss is disgraceful and I had higher expectations
-
31 - 18 on the boards in favor of Butler.
-
Playing 4 on5. We need some production from kur or oso. Oso has a ten footer any time he wants. Needs to develop a shot
-
Oof, Stevie, Kolek, O Max and Oso on the court, they better play D cause not a lot of offense there.
-
I’m sorry but this loss is disgraceful and I had higher expectations
Sorry for your plight
-
I’m sorry but this loss is disgraceful and I had higher expectations
1) Doesn't look good but the game is not over.
2) Just a complete overreaction. Team is a laying a complete turd today. It can happen.
-
What is the story with Joplin not playing. Did I miss something?
-
The 3 has not been there today to put it mildly.
-
What is the story with Joplin not playing. Did I miss something?
He’s transferring
-
What is the story with Joplin not playing. Did I miss something?
He’s not a great defender.
He’s transferring
Or that.
-
Now I realize why Shaka keeps recruiting guards
-
My god
-
Omg.
-
Oso does not even go for a rebound sad
-
Zero awareness from Elliot
-
Wow. I just…I mean…I…
-
Holy unnatural carnal knowledge Oso, how do you let the ball hit the floor there?
-
That offensive board on the rebound is inexcusable. Go after the ball. Wow.
-
He’s transferring
He did play in the first half.
-
The Butler offensive rebound on the missed free throw sums this game up quite nicely.
-
Joplin entered the game today and missed his 1 shot.
-
Butler's rebound on the missed FT was my favorite one.
-
I took the Lord's name in vain when that rebound hit the floor...
-
He did play in the first half.
Fake news
-
He did play in the first half.
It was a joke.
-
I'd stop watching and go back to painting but need more time for the first coat to dry.
Who knew Greg was a slasher!
-
I would spend the rest of the practices this year focused on how to. F’in REBOUND THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!
-
Just keep fighting.
-
So John Wick 2 is on A&E right now. A few minutes of watching that should release some of this tension
-
Get it under 10 with 10 and let’s see what Shaka comes up with, hey?

Kinda thinking that ship has sailed.
It's the ball-watching, whether on a rebound or loose ball, that gets to me.
Also, still don't think this game is over.

We could use Boban.
-
We could use Boban.
Or bourbon.
-
I’ll say it again, I still think MU makes this a game.
-

Agreed.

I respect the bold optimism.
Just dont think our offense is there today.
Butler reverting to the mean a bit offensively

LOL.

Hey I agree with you. Someone is going to need to get insanely hot.
-
Nope, unless they hit every shot in last ten minutes.
3 for 17 from three and three total team assists. Really?
-
Finally!! Let's go now!!
-
Down to eight
-
Man. Not a smart play there by O-Max.
-
Mitchell needs to shoot that
-
What did OMax have in mind trying that move 12 ft from the basket?
-
Does Prosper have any basketball perspicacity?
-
Two utterly stupid plays
-
Nice to see the refs have resorted to calling bull$hit ticky tack fouls. Makes the game completely unwatchable.
-
Best part is this game is our family’s favorite ref…the high steppah!
-
KOLEK!!
-
Pucker…
-
Who said the f*cking game was over?
-
OSO!!! OSO!! Let's Fking go!!!!
-
Love the heart!
-
WE GOT THIS
-
I never doubted they’d make this interesting :o
-
Who said the f*cking game was over?
I think me & you were the only ones who gave MU any hope in this thread.
-
I love scoop
-
Butler has look of doubt on their faces
-
Shaka’s got to keep making adjustments. Get a couple more stops and we’re there.
-
I think me & you were the only ones who gave MU any hope in this thread.
I will give both of you happy endings if they pull this out
-

That's not true. Let's go now!

I think Marquette takes the lead, but Butler comes back and wins at the end.
-
And now it's a game.
Great stretch.

Need to play great D down the stretch here. Hopefully that Kolek 3 gets him going - and room for some assists.
-
That was an extremely late whistle.
-
That foul call was so delayed I thought they playing advantage for Butler
-
Late call there. FK.
-
That foul call was so delayed I thought they playing advantage for Butler
It was like they were waiting to see who was likely to retrieve the ball first.
-
DAMN.
-
DM really having a poor overall game, hopefully he picks it up
-
F*ck
-
Check the replay for Golden’s foot on that 3
-
Gotta hit the front end on those.
-
The front end miss by Lewis and 3 by Butler going back… no bueno.
-
Check the replay for Golden’s foot on that 3
Good point.
-
Butler is in prevent mode,sure hope it comes back to burn them
-
I told my friends MU would win big. It went the other way and looked bleak for the teal. It was not fun. At the half it looked like there was no hope. I didn't panic. I put some ribs on the bbq and here we are knocking on the door. Honey, would you run to the store and get me another 12 pack? Please. I'm busy here. Help me out. We got a ball game.
-
Oso needs to stop grabbing.
-
my god thwse fouls
-
Can't give them free points. Absolutely killing us.
-
It’s a conspiracy. I tried to rewind the DVR to see what the hell that foul was and my DVR wouldn’t rewind
-
MAKE THEM PICK UP THE PACE
-
Wow. You have gotta be s-ing me.
-
22!
-
Travel??
-
Based on the shooting form on 2-3 of Butler’s players, I can see why they are not a good shooting team. Which makes this 50x more annoying that they are unconscious today
-
Check the replay for Golden’s foot on that 3
I hope they did/do this because it looked close.
-
It feels like MU has had 3 or 4 potential and 1’s that went 75% down and popped out at the very last second.
-
I'm hanging on for overtime
-

yeppp
-
Of course FS1's scoreboard fails...
-
They are back to not missing.
No quit in the team but this is annoying. Even with the 30ish minutes of bad basketball we survive if Butler doesnt pick today to make shots, open or not.
-

Word. So frustrating.
-
This game features way too many whistles. That said, both UConn and Butler saved their best outside shooting efforts for MU. It’s nauseating.
-
Need a couple bounces our way the last four.
-
Gotta step up on D. Can't just trade baskets.
-

Well that one three was an absolute killer. We still have a shot.
-
And that one was worse. OMG.
-
That exchange would break the will of a lesser team.
-
Damn
-
And that one was worse. OMG.
Ridiculous.
-
That last three with Oso in his face.

Man. Just didn't need that shot. Had plenty of time.
-
F8cking Harris.
-
That missed goal-tend is really hurting right now. Should be a 3 point game.
Kolek's layup was blocked after it hit the backboard. Clear as day.
-
its so frustrrating warching their mediorce players look like kyrie.. who tf is this harris kid my god....
-
I’d foul now and extend this game as much as possible.

He was actually pretty good last year for them
But has been way down this year. Til now of course.
-

100%
-
Harris, 10 pts a game on 29% 3P shooting turns into Steph Curry late. LMAO
I don't think these refs are against Marquette, I just think they're mediocre AF. Like many BE officials this season
-
I thought so live. They can't look at that?
Not with 3.5 minutes left. I think only under 2 min.
-
Yeah.....I'm dumbfounded why we didn't foul.
-
Let them shoot wide open 3 smh
-

Agreed. They have mediocrely called a very touch foul second half. Which works against the team trying to make up a 15 pt hole. But it hasnt been one sided.
-
With this 3pt defense, I feel like I'm watching a Bucks game.
-
Defense was the problem today. 82 points. 🙄🙄🙄
-
Yeah.....I'm dumbfounded why we didn't foul.
In my opinion, a late game coaching error.
Go for the steal early, if you don't get it foul.
-
11-13 Butler looks like Gonzaga. Only against MU.
-
Lost the game in the 1st half
-
Lavin is terrible as color guy, keep him in the studio please
-
I’m so sick of guys having career games against MU for the last decade
-
I kinda think if MU had started fouling at a minute, they’d have had a one possession game with a chance to tie. Oh well.
-
Tough one to swallow, this one
-
Does anyone know how Wisconsin did today?
-

Weird coaching decision by Shaka
1. extend the game
2. Butler doesnt shoot it great from the line.
-
Worse defensive game of the year? Sucks but that’s college basketball
-
Defense was the problem today. 82 points. 🙄🙄🙄
We panicked when it was a 14 point game early. That's what most disappointing to me. Because then the lead swelled and it lead to very poor decisions and a number of meltdowns on both ends of the floor.
-
Lost the game in the 1st half
Yep. That's really the bottom line.
-
cant wait for the board to drool over how great the come back was all night. bad loss. awful first half.
-
MU ... TERRIBLE in 1st half
Can’t go down 20 !?!?
Gtown is now a MUST WIN or the ghosts of WOJO will reappear
-
I think Lavin is voting for Jordan for BECOY
-
cant wait for the board to drool over how great the come back was all night. bad loss. awful first half.
Sorry for your hard life

It was a must win before today. No business losing at home to them.

3rd loss in last 4 games. Haven't played good defense in a while. In a rut for sure. Need to turn it around quickly.
-

Two of the losses to be expected. This one sucked.
Panic if you want. I'm not going to.
-

It wasn't pretty. 13 threes by Butler is uncharacteristic, but we really let the game get away from us within the first 10 mins. That's what's so disappointing. 31 pts by Butler in 10 mins? There's really not much else you can say.
-
At least they didn't get killed at home by Rutgers.
