Huh?? I'm fully locked and loaded. Hoping for Shaka and awe start.
OMax going at Karaban right away.
Sanogo got there to help though.
Good idea.
Ugh, just saw the faces in stripes
Oso is jumping on d too much. Gonna get called for those fouls
So oho elbow Oso twice on that 3 second call
Wasn't that a travel on Omax?
Great D there!!
Good start for both teams
Looks like tour guys are not intimidated. Great stuff. Keep going inside. Love that. Kolek! 2 makes and draws a charge!
I've already had 2+ (real) beers by 6:15 on a Wednesday so you know this is a big one.
That first 4+ minutes is kinda what we gotta do on D
They have 2 easy buckets plus a O rebound putback.
But weve also had 3 possessions where we completely swarmed them and they couldnt get into looks.
Balance out the easy buckets with possessions where they get no looks.
Offense has the exact right idea attacking and not settling. Keep that up.
OMax has to move the rock when help comes. Let's try to push Sanogo farther out. Time to start mincing the mesh from distance.
Looks like both teams are trying hard and having fun

JOP!!!
Jop was literally running in the opposite direction of the guy he was guarding
Yeah, good bucket by Jop, but he just can't defend. He should sit
Karaban murdering us on O
Exciting to see the rapid development for Joplin getting to the rim. Though the defense still needs plenty of work.

Gotta clean the glass. Caraban is also hurting us. Force him left and get in his freaking grill.

Yes! Need to raise the energy!
Kam has to shot fake there.
Joplin's D is horrific.
BEN!!!
We are uncharacteristically out of control, too many poor turnovers
Omax always looks like he's dribbling along the edge of a cliff
cant stop thier 9 foot guy
Oso, please don't switch off 32 to guard a 5'10"guy ... no matter what
3 seconds!!
This is close to getting ugly
We cant stop the big fu cker even a little bit and its causing us to rush eeverything on O
14-0 run. Brutal
Both teams WERE playing well. Now only one is and it ain't us
Needed a time-out before that last three. Fk.
Has the 3-second rule truly died?
if andre jackson is hitting everything might as well go home
Gonna be tough if they can make 3s and stretch a lead without their center
That was with a lot of UConn backups.
The frosh Clingan beasting down low
Yikes. Earlier time out was needed. What did we miss 7 shots in a row? Killing us with that 7 2 guy. Man. Sonogo out and this guy is whacking us Need t circle the wagons!
I kinda stupidly got my hopes up.
Ive said all year the two games we will not win are Uconn.
I just dont think we can beat Uconn with the type of roster Shaka goes for and the roster they build. Unless its a year we have massive experience edge.
Our h-c offense is stagnant. We really need Kam to wake up. Critical 4 min stretch.
We miss the students. No energy from crowds
Crowd sounds really bad so far, when we were up 20-15 it was crickets, against UConn that shouldn't be the case.
Very clearly a bad matchup for us. Think we're in trouble.

You are the most gutless person on this board so I wont take that into much consideration.
A bad match up is a bad match up
Based on the last 4 game minutes, I assume #32 is a leading player of the year candidate
clingan has shut down our offense completly
Getting zero in the paint.
Try and win the final four minutes of the half
Jones has played the best defense of anyone on the big guys
Also, I think I might have been accidentally invited to a funeral. Or at least that's what Section 220 is acting like.
Sean Jones ballin.
Keep him in.
Clingan would look nice as Osos backup.
Sanogo should sit a bit more than usual this game.
Huge stretch looms.
I actually still feel pretty confident, but a lot depends on how this half ends
Sanogo is the better player but he's not impacting the game the way Clingan is.
Not playing intelligent hoops right now. Oso and OMax must make better decisions. And Kam must get going. We can do this!!
We don't play defense in 1st halves, this is status quo. I trust we'll come out of the locker room bringing it. Until then, stop going soft to the hoop, especially when Clingan is in and chip away a little bit.
Quote from: MuggsyB on January 11, 2023, 06:36:48 PM

And that's where we got our first 6 points. 7 2 guy was killing us inside. Blocking. Man. Better chance with sonogo. Lol. Gooo Marquette!
Stay within striking distance. Far from over.

This might be the first game I hope MU increases the 3pt attempts. Driving isn't working against these guys

Bam!! Jones the Younger!!
Sean Jones, love the effort
Sean showed up tonight
Need the pump fake when Clingan is in.
FROSH TO FROSH I SEE YOU
Thought we were done. Oops.
Chase Ross is gonna become my favorite player sooner rather than later.
KABOOM!! Beautiful left handed flick pass from Sean to Chase!!! Let's Freaking Go!!!
Get this crowd amped up!!
Dear Coach Hurley,
Please leave Sanogo in the game.
Sincerely,
MU
Let's change the offensive game plan when 32 is in...please
Have to get that weak side reb. Ughhh. Infuriating.
not going to enjoy watching this big oaf for years
Seriously, MU understands they can't shoot through a guys hand, right?
Clingan is significantly more impactful than Sanogo.

That's why they give us 2 halves.
Poor half, only down 4, can definitely bring it. Need to pass the ball with purpose
I'm not a statistician but I assume Cling-on has the best +/- in NCAA history in the 1st half

Saying, that Uconn is the one team i never felt we could beat is a temper tantrum?
I told you a week or so ago, seek therapy. Talk abuot Steve and Jop in a safe space and get better.
Need an answer to the Klingon - time to fire up the defense shields on the USS Enterprse lol. Hurley says - yeah they have no answer for him. Sonogo is a break when he's on the floor.
Big shot there. Obviously Cligan is killing us on both ends. We need to be smarter challenging him. I don't believe we've taken a FT. Kam has to find his game in tbe 2H. The crowd energy also needs to increase!! We're right there if we clean up a few things. Gotta rebound. Box out with more tenacity and force.

They focused a ton on getting to the point and not many great looks from three. I think they come out in second half and look for open 3's. They played tight on offense and time for them to have some and start firing 3's.
Both teams played hard and had fun
Oso needs to rise and fire on that wide open 7 footer. He can make thar shot.

Once again, you suggesting someone seek therapy is hilarious. And btw, it's not just this game, but anytime a team goes on a slight run against us you start to meltdown.
Going forward Shaka should play Gold when Clingan is in the game. Need to pull him away from the basket. Clingan may wear down if he keeps playing big minutes.
Mugster, how you holding up?
We got this.
They should bar anyone bigger than Giannis from playing basketball.
They need to set the tempo offensively and things will open up. They were very conservative and cautious. Time to let it fly.

Mugs
They are passive on ball pressure on D and no ball movement on offense. Things will look differently shortly, IMO.
Weathered the storm. Have a shot. Hopefully Kam goes en fuego.
It would be great if BOTH Jones had a good game
bbrutal
Sweet Jesus. Can't foul there. Ughh.
Goaltending
Pretty high
BAM!! LET'S GO NOW!!!
Elder Jones sighting
Beautiful!! Keep this up!!! That shot is there for Oso.
We got this
Ben is going to need to hit 1 or 2 from the perimeter this half.
Gonna see the Klingon coming in now. Let's see if we get Ben
I wouldn't have predicted that our best strategy was to let Sanogo get the ball down low.
I could hear the slap on Sanogo from 25 miles away from the Fiserv
10 blocka for UCONN.
Kam will finish with 20
And-1!!!
JOP!!!
Not a smart play by Gold there.
How do other teams deal with him?
Wonder if a zone would work?
I think they are asking a little too much of Gold
Quote from: MUEng92 on January 11, 2023, 07:21:56 PM

The guy is obviously enormous. We may have to hack him late.
Is that 3 shot clock violations by UConn?
That's fking bshit. Smh.
Not a lot of fouls called, but man some have been brutal. Keep up the ball pressure
omg
Now that was a bullshit call
Total BS call on Kolek. We don't get favorable calls at home even. Dang
Holy effing flop of the century. Terrible call against Kolek.
Brutal call on TK.
Golds charge was baaaaaaaaad tho. Had bucket and decided to barrel over a 7 footer for no reason ha
Overcome poor officiating. That is a growth opportunity.
That would actually be one of those calls where they could call both an offensive foul and a flop on Calcaterra, that was brutally overdramatized.
Jeffery Anderson allowing the FLOP !! !
I'd go with Gold and Oso for a bit and see if they disrupt the big kid.

Sean just punked a 7'2 dude
That was an astonishing steal
Why does Oso leave 32? For the love of god
Whoa
Game is like Andre vs The Superfly.
OSO!!! Let's Gooooi
Sweet dime Kam!
Damn!! Have to pick that ball up.
Such a lazy pass Jop. Wtf dude
good job joplin
UGHHH. Why Oso?? FOCUS!!
very unlucky on that loose ball bucket.
Jop simply cannot make that pass
Kam's offense is gonna need to bring this home
Quote from: NickelDimer on January 11, 2023, 07:33:12 PM
Cam's offense is gonna need to bring this home
Bold prediction.
Well I'll be damned! You can drive into the lane, not shoot against a 7'2" player, dribble away from him and get an open shot
Officials have more respect for Hurley than Shaka it appears.
But the second anyone starts worrying about officiating on the court is when things go south. Play the game and flush the negative the rest of the way. Go time!
Would you hack a Cliggonguy under 5 mins? Can't allow no footers.

I'm watching this on espn gamecast because I don't get cbssn. Uggggh. Is it because they want to torture me? Hang in there boys! I wish I was seeing this live and on tv.
That is a gift to MU. Jop lost the ball before the foul. I'll take it though
Clingan just shook the entire basket on the Kolek layup. If that would have came out and they didn't call a goaltend I'd be irate.
Anyways...finish this thing out.

F@@k 'em
At that last OB play, I had said to my wife during the ad, Oso should be out. Then he gets fouled, off the ball. Driscoll, of course didn't have the onions to call the intentional, but Oso sank 'em both. Priceless.

As clutch as those FTs were by Oso, I'm not sure that was the right coaching decision to have him out there on that possession, but, a confidence booster and builder for Oso to succeed in that situation. Great night for the program.
You mean Oso, not OMax, I think.
That was the kind of game that makes me renew season tickets. Great atmosphere, and it wasn't even Senior Night.
Quite an effort by MU to overcome the blocked shots and second chance points.
Honestly woulda thought Marquette lost reading the entirety of this thread.
At no point did it seem like Marquette led at all.

Shaka still 1-4 in 5 point or less games- can't win the close ones.
Quote Shaka in the huddle; "We need to get this lead down to below 5 before the end to improve our record in close games. So jop, please take a 3 early in the shot clock. Ty, do one of you great passes poorly, and then near the end, leave a guy open for a 28 ft three! This is great, the scoopers will be so happy!"
Shaka locker room; "Darn it Oso, did you have to make ALL OF YOUR FREETHROWS?, we didn't improve the close game record that scoopers are obsessed with!"

Wasn't really following the thread during the game, mainly because it was so stressful to watch. While MU led most of the second half, it never felt to me like we were in control. It seemed like UConn could've taken over at many moments.
Kudos to the team for staying focused and bringing it home!
Thanks Rico & Real Chili 83. This thread was very enjoyable this morning.

Crowd sounds really bad so far, when we were up 20-15 it was crickets, against UConn that shouldn't be the case.
I was at FF like always. Crowd is always louder in person than what TV can pick up. The Ben Gold three to go up 20-15 was not crickets.
Also, I just watch that play in my library for You Tube TV, it wasn't crickets on the Gold make. The next trip down for Uconn didn't have the defense of energy from the crowd as a student section can bring.
