Too bad foul trouble limited his minutes. He might have gone off.
When they have a game.
Period.
I was just saying tonigh... the difference between MU with good Jop and MU with bad Jop is gargantuan
When the sun comes up.
When the ball goes up.
When the pressure.goes up.
For MU to win this game with 3 key guys in foul trouble is truly a testament to the entire roster and coaching staff. To beat UCONN 2/3 doesn't suck either.
I was limited to chat during the game because of technical difficulties with my TV but I thought the Mitchell charge was bogus. Just sayin. Defensively we were as good as I've seen all season.
Jop played huge tonight. Was asked to go body to body w/ Clingan while he was already in foul trouble and he answered the bell. Did he shut the giant down? No, of course not. But he did the dirty work and still found a way to pour on points we really needed.
This is the Jop game of the year, tbh.
Being forced to go small really opened up the game for MU. UCONN players were throwing their hands up at each other defensively when we opened it up to a 10 point lead and were making it look easy. Sanogo looked like Bambi on ice trying to figure out how to guard on the perimeter. Made Hurley go to zone.

Yep. UCONN was befuddled and got chopped down. :)
