Cool!! I like Benetti.
Idk about the orange yellow uniform clash
Gotta finish Oso. Dunk that!
Let's Go Marquette!
Heck of a move but Oso has got to finish that
We are already 0/3 at the rim. CMon guys
Three easy shots no points
Take the lid off the basket
Wow. Theee point blank misses.
Love the attacking the rim, gotta finish!
Shaka can't beat Big Ten teams
Oso holy hell dude you have got to finish.
And that should have been an and 1. FOCUS!
Orange uniforms plus an orange key looks awful
Ugh
Team has to settle down
5 great looks.
Feels like a Willie appearance is imminent
You lilterally have no chance to play in the NBA if you cant play through a spec of contact nor make the free throws.
Man Oso at the end of last year was good with free throws.
Yikes .... We need to break the ice!
Nothing but good looks so far.
Illinois defense seems weak. Gotta make the open shots

Oso through contact!!!!
Man TK looks nice
Haven't taken a bad shot yet
Some nice dimes for Kolek. Let's Goooooo Marquette! Need Jop and Kam to get going
Gotta say Tyler looks pretty good so far.
Pretty high
Love the energy, love the shot choices, get a bit stronger. TyKo is incredible
Quote from: CountryRoads on November 14, 2023, 07:19:12 PM

Tremendous looks. That was a gorgeous dime from Tyko. Let's go now!
Domask on ILL - I thought the announcer was saying Dumba**
Team looks good. Starting to settle into our rhythm. Need our subs to get used to pace of the game now
Seeing Kolek talking on the FT lane, thank god he's on our team because he's probably an annoying ass to the other team.
Tyko!!!

The team missed so many good shots. But they're right there. No rebounding but the intensity on defense is there. It will get better. And while I was typing this Tyler made two great plays.
Interested to see Dainja
Hes gonna be a load to guard. But not sure that big fella can guard us.
Excellent job attacking. Time to get the 3-Ball going and guard their corner 3. And make the freebies.
Mid range shots lead to Dainja.

Don't know what Tyler had in mind there
Wow....did you see that zoomability by JTY? Let's go now!
Ben Steele:
Tyler Kolek's s%$!t-talking remains completely healthy. #mubb
Ha!
Ehhhh
Kolek goes out, worst offensive possession so far.
Buckle up, kids. We got a good one
Subs looked good on their run
Getting great looks and I like the pace. We just need to knock down some shots.
Offense not effective without TyKo.
We are flying and in fast mode jeez! Good thing we have lots of players. We might tire out Illinois if their bench is not that good
Quote from: tower912 on November 14, 2023, 07:30:31 PM

Time for Kolek to return
Sean, honey, wyd
Cmon. Gotta get some O out there
SJ awful pass then compounds it with moronic foul
Double dumb play by Sean there.
Sean, do not follow a bad play with a dumb play.
Well, that's the worst 7 seconds of Sean's season
Mitchell with the shot-put brick leading to the 3 pt play for Illinois.
Love Tyler using non dominant hand !
TK was clearly bumped there.
Tyko got bumped there.
So they aren't calling the move before you dribble travel this year?
I don't get that shot from Stevie.
We cant have Stevie launching 3s out of rhythm. Not your game man.

Need more than 0 from kam
Steve trusts his shot. Shaka trusts Stevie.
Need Kam to get going. Need scoring from our scorers! Jop - we need ya!
I like Ben's playing so far. Let's get our score tes go8ng
Stevie Mitchell is just a brutally bad shooter.
It's Kam time. We've made one three and really just one jumper. Move the rock and knock 'em down. Perhaps we're rushing just a click..

First test of the year probably has them amped up a bit too much to start.
2nd Half we will be EN FUEGO
Fast paced game. Neither team is shooting well. It's well reffed. The subs came in and kept it close. MU needs to get Kam going.
That zone ended quickly.
Travel no longer a thing I guess
Dang not getting the rebound or tie up there got #2 on Kam
Quote from: TSmith34, Inc. on November 14, 2023, 07:41:43 PM

Kolek getting hammered on his drives. Refs not calling it.
Allowing a bit too much dribble penetration.
Moreso to go to a MU board to troll.
But.... when it all you have...
Virtually every shot is a wide open look, fun to watch.
Kolek has been terrific, the rest of our guys haven't played particularly well. That said we're getting great looks and taking care of the rock. It seems to me it's a simple as making open shots.
Quote from: willie warrior on November 14, 2023, 07:48:35 PM

The one drive a few minutes ago, both the refs and I were shocked that Kolek didn't make the layup despite being pushed in the back. Unfortunately, I was the only one that said "maybe it's because he was pushed in the back "
MU has one streak shooter and a bunch of other guys that can't shoot at all.
Maybe college basketball is really down this year, but this isn't close to a top 5 (or top 10) team.
In reality, MU is in the 20-25 range.
Surprised Oso is sitting.

Come on dude. Give it a rest.
Our fast breaks could definitely use some improvement in the 2nd half.
Let's execute now.
We are playing a very aggressive game. I like it. Illinois might tire out
I'll give #13 credit. He crashed into 2 MU players and helped them both up.

Nice sportsmanship there, yes.
MU will make 8+ 3's in the second half. Beating the paint in first half was a great coaching move. Second half they lay the lumber from deep.
Wow
I'm starting to remember why Kolek was the Big East Player of the Year
My goodness what a spin and finish!
Imagine if Tyler was playing on two good ankles - goodness.
FK!
Stevie cant fall for that.
Oh well. Up 5 and we have 1 bucket from Kam and Jop.
Could be living in a much worse reality.
This is going to be a fun year. Up 5 on the road at the half... I'll take it
The announcer compared kolek to Howard. I can't wait to see scoop
Poor choice of defense to end the half. Good effort, we are much better, defend the three, keep up the aggression
Great first half
Quote from: MuggsyB on November 14, 2023, 07:59:44 PM
FK!
A rare bad defensive play by Stevie there - gotta stick with the shooter.
Uh....no Jim Jackson. Markus Howard was not a "set-up man" his Frosh year at MU.
Lolek is the man. Put Mitchell on Goodie and stick allover his ass.
Tremendous half from Kolek. Feels like Marquette didn't play close to their standard in that half and still have the lead. Take control these first four minutes of the second half, Al-style.
Let's hope the better team wins, because it's clear who is the better team.

Beat them by playing B10 ball in first half and they will show them how they play in MKE in the 2nd. Close to a coaching clinic on both sides of the court by Shaka.
Kolek the first few games, laid back, distributing, not asserting himself, getting everyone involved. Looking good not great.
First road game of the year, top 25 opponent in a packed house, comes out on a sore ankle and just starts SHREDDING dudes, crafty, clever, quick. Dude is an absolute baller and already has a pro level control to himself. What a blessing
Did he say UCONN was favored by 45 or 25?
Got to stop the Illini traditional
25
Oh wow, is it early enough for presidential ads? Jeeeez I forgot that's in a year.
Kolek is sweating less than when I walk my dog on an 85 degree day

Omg.
Someone not named TK make your damn open 3s/open break aways/open dunks

I'm doubling down on who is the better team. Even when they are on a run UofI doesn't look that great. Stop toying with us MU!
Regression to the mean is on our side lol. Our shots will start dropping through the rim starting..... now!
Kam, Jop and Stevie are a combined 4-16.
Mitchell, Joplin, Oso - omg.
I think we've missed at least 10 no-footers. Stop the bleeding now.
Mitchell is confident about shooting but he looks no different then last year except he's taking more shots! Not going in though

They had their run but we are still in the lead
Need some threes here
Oso is the best player on the court. He should be set up every trip up the court. He will change the game.
Easy shots aren't working, we need to chuck up some tougher ones
Really don't know what Jop is doing offensively

Completely out of sync..
This just isn't a top 5 team.
THEY CANNOT SHOOT!
Wow Joplin.
What the hell are we doing out there?
Trying so hard to be on the Jopwagon
That looked like a clear goaltend
Oso is blatantly not up to snuff so far this year.
Hes got to get it going
Jop with two airballs. Tk swatted.
We are murdering ourselves on offense. Every fastbreak.
Jop hasn't been good
Gotta review that for goaltending

It is what it is.
Never mind

Someone wanna tell Joplin that the game started?
Sucks to see Illinois role guys go crazy from 3. Goode and domask are gonna 5 each
Need to compose ourselves during the timeout
Need to run this at our pace now. Move the ball to an open shooter and start hitting! Let's Gooo Marquette!!
Chase needs to take Jop's minutes tonight. With depth you can go with the hot hand and it aint Jop tonight
It seems to me our guys other than Tyko are dribbling too much in the h-court.

Agreed but we have to make shots. Can't start the 2nd half 2-10.
I'm going with " Relax, we got This"
That was a big shot from Kam.
At least the Top 5 insanity will be dead and buried after this game.
Sure, let's let the slowest guy on the court dribble all the way to the hoop uncontested. Why not
How was that not an offensive foul on Domask pushing off Sean?
Kam ties it up. Hes getting heated up and aggresive. We get a stop.
We proceed to not find Kam and have SJ drive into trees. Kick to TK and get it poked away.
Cmon guys
So not they can't miss cool cool cool
Let's go now!
Need Sean to be ok firing on those. He's been open on the shot and the drive. Trust your game
It's time to seize this game.
The performances of MU players are making us approach the "give the ball to Tyler and get the F out of the way" point of the game. Seriously, can anyone else step up?

True. Very frustrating. But we're tied playing our C- game on the road.
I do miss the old inside the Huddles of screaming about hustle.
Jeeez and now when we get stops to take the lead we immediately F it up.
Need a damn run.
Two good D possessions. Now execute!
For those of us who thought this would be like the burning of Atlanta, here we are, wondering if the calvary will show up soon. I expected a close game but this is going to be a slug fest to the buzzer. It's so much fun to watch in early November. It will have a big effect on MU's rank next week. Big time to concentrate on the opportunity and be ready to make the right pass and make the shot.
The guys behind me are in complete awe of Tyler. They want to guard only him.
We are no joke 0/10 on fast breaks.
Huge 3 by SJ though!
OMG!!!

Nice box out Sean
Air ball on a FT :-\
Oso shot got worse in the offseason.....
What is with these guys and FT?
Did Oso just miss that to the right...completely?
Oso is letting his team down
Oso not even a hand up
Oso is F'ing killing us.
Cant make free throws. Then literally allows Goode to shoot a wide open 3.
Be a damn vet man.
Get Kam back in. Game is back on when we just got separation.
Oso has to challenge Goode on that three.
THEY HAVE ONE GUY WHO CAN SHOOT. GUARD HIM
Any news on Ross?
I love Oso but those thinking he will be drafted are on crack
Got a break there.
I woulda exploded if Benny hit that.
Make your open 3s guys!
Slow down!
I don't care how much weight 42 lost, he is a moving screen and a loose ball foul on every play
Update: holy fookin hell Kam
Let's go Kam

Stud Kam
Fight for the ball Oso. Hit your free throws. He back to hitting the heel of the rim. Ouch. Hey, it's time for a time out. Right.
Kam straight off the court at the downtown Y. Wow
Kam.
Let the dogs take it from here.
TK and Kam
Jop just gotta sit this one out
BAM!! Let's go now!!
Here comes Driscoll
Jesus christ
Jop amazing O board. Immediately throws it away.
Every non TK/Kam player is off setting good with dumb.
An offensive rebound on a missed FT and it ends up with them shooting FTs .
Gotta make our FT's. Jop having a rough night.
Need Jop to put the weight back on ASAP. Sapped his powers.

No doubt.
Hey Jops lack of quickness works to our benefit!
Up 5 at half,up 5 with 4 to go!
Illinois got Driscolled
Joplin and Mitchell are so, so bad.
Brad Underwood is Wojo's Dad.
bad free throw shooting is contagious....
Need to bring it hard the last four minutes and make the Bunnies.
FTs no matta ir so I've been told
Can anyone make a free throw? I suck and I can match their 50% stat.

I'm at the point of assuming a miss anytime someone other than Kolek is on the line.
Gotta score on this possession
Get it back to 7-8 and put the heat on them.
Also im petrified at the looming 1 and 1 scenarios.

7-14 not good.
Oso is going to have to make one bucket to close.
Kam and oso 2 of 8
Do they start hacking Oso?
I'm going to vomit if Oso has to shoot too many more FTs
Oso clutch, new shooting stroke looking brilliant.
Been a little hard on Oso but boy hope that shoulder is ok
Kam another nice take.
Oso just snapped his shoulder back into place lol
Is Oso okay?

He did that last year too - amazing how his focus improves in crunch time.
Shaka: "Get the F out of the way and let Tyler and Kam score"
I'm good with that plan
Don't. Leave. Their. Shooter.
Oso's a Warrior. NLW is a mama's boy and his mama is a filthy little scamp.

Brought back some great memories from last year.
The head jerk got the foul call. Can't believe refs don't assume there is t a foul with a head jerk
Is Jim Jackson usually this annoying? Maybe I'm just overly tense.

I thought the same thing.
Some dumb basketball tonight
Definitely a mid-November basketball game. Head scratching stuff from both sides, but especially Illinois.

What does Kolek have to do for these announcers to realize that his ankle is fine? Lol
Top 25 win on the road when they only had their C+ game. The mark of a top 5 team.
Great road win in a tough environment.
What a great game! A slugfest! We can nitpick a lot but we beat a ranked team on the road. Great win!
nOt a ToP-5 tEaM
Business like win. Awesome that we have one of the best teams in the country this year.
Excellent win for the guys. Loved their intensity all game long.
Thank you everyone in the thread for not quoting that bozo so I didn't have see his nonsense
Amazing win. Amazing Kolek. Wow! Huge win. Do we know what time our first game is in Hawaii?

This game was a big time W. Multiple guys were MIA, tough opponent and tough environment and they get it done.This is the type of wins that top five programs deliver on.

Monday night.
I think Shaka going to Oso down the stretch was brilliant. Earlier I posted that Oso needed at least one bucket to close the show. I dunno if Shaka took a peek at Scoop but it was an outstanding decision. :)

Oso has this amazing ability to struggle all game and then come up huge in crunch time.

4 huge points when we needed them. Sometimes he gets sped up. He should watch Jokic video.
I'm so much less stressed now.. Maybe I'll have a La Trappe Quad. :)
