Hope both teams play hard and enjoy themselves on the court. Playing for your university is an incredible gift and pleasure. Win or lose, it's refreshing to know the fans of both teams will appreciate these young men and how they represent their universities

Folks, friendly reminder that it is important to limber up before attempting to post to the game thread. Proper stretching is key to avoiding sprains, dislocations, and general inflammation.
It is strongly recommended that you perform Willie's Warm-UpsTM prior to the tip. Type each of the following at least three time each to ensure injury free in-game posts:
"Oso needs to get his head out of his kielbasa"
"Another brick from Gold"

It's very hard to beat bubble teams on the road. We're playing the best team in the country on the road.
We're good enough to win. But we should definitely be somewhat significant dogs, and are.

No. MU is a -7.5 underdog against the number one team in the country on their home court.
House money game
The point spread in this game is similar to Marquette at home against the likes of Seton Hall and St. John's.
The road team could win but the home team has a decided edge.
LFG!
No house money this year. Time to play for 40 minutes.
Gaffney, Chiazza and Breeding... Bet the house on Uconn.
Heart rate already up according to my Fitbit. Should be an intense next 2 hours.
LET'S GOOOOO!!! Attack early and take control!!

Gues it's semantics. If we lose it doesn't hurt us and I won't lose any sleep over it. To me that's house money.
Good grief - Fox already had a 30 minute window built in after the Creighton gsme and it's still a 2:10 tip-off? WTF?

Oso picks up two quick ones, Gold picks up two others and ballgame. Breeding at fault.
Let's hope Kam and Joplin go ballistic from three and Clingan doesn't block all drives to the basket. Should be fun game.
Let's soar Eagles! Play tough, take no crap, and control the pace, work for open shots. Let's Goo Marquette!
Time to rip some bong hits
Donny Marshall. Come on man.
Volume down,no Brando!!!
Oso!!!
Game
There home crowd is insane
Who was the foul on there?
Great fight. Need to settle in and knock a few outside shots down.
I sure wish Kam could work out of this funk
Man.....knock down the wide open three!!! Let's go now!
This game is already awesome
The intensity
Weathered the first five minutes in good shape - just need to knock down a few threes.
Lots of good looks from 3 for both teams...... or going down......MU doing a nice job on the boards early.
What a pace. Hope it benefits us. Whew. I'm tired watching. Would be good if one of the 8 UConn fouls were called. lol! We are playing tough. Everyone is jacked on the team. Goo Marquette!
Both teams missing from deep. Game will start once they start falling

Clingan is 7'2 and a problem. But I think we can deal with him scoring. Gotta hit some wide open looks. PERIOD.
Let's go now!! Time to attack!!!
Chase had to finish that.
Bench Tyler
Deep floaters are bad shots
Getting a little mixed up on switches. Also too hesitant to drive a few times
Tyko needs to calm down a click.
Switching defense is going to hurt them today
Game
Another game with a mafia whistle. Love this league!

Breeding just an incredible x factor off the bench for Uconn
Kolek chillllll
Jop jumping at the 5 11 guy
Stevie having a fantastic season.
Tyko a bit out of control. But we're generally getting great looks. We simply must knock down wide open shots.

Starting to hate on Spencer
On two trips that could have produced a Marquette lead, Kolek turned it over. He needs to slow down a notch.
I think we would rather have Driscoll than Breeding ! ! ! 8-)
Cmon Ty, keep your head up and in it!!
We are playing with passion. Love it. If the refs call a fair game we could win. 5 fouls to zero. Ugh
Love our hustle. We do need to take a breath moving the ball around and get the open shot. We will hit a three soon.... Can feel it! Goo Marquette!

Once again getting jobbed by refs
Two guards getting hit in the back of the head but ok
Holding our own on the boards. Just need to hit a few shots from outside
Stevie got hammered on that breakaway
Stevie got clobbered
Gonna have to hit some shots
WTF Joplin
F1
Prediction: refs are going to go crazy calling hand checks in the first 5 minute of the second half. They've let mugging the ball handler get out of control this half and are going to overcorrect.
Gonna have to win hitting literally zero threes. Gonna be tough
I used to like Brando calling games, but man has he become annoying.
These refs blow.
Took a football tackle to make them blow their whistle on UCONN lol
Idk if Stevie getting hammered in the head or TK getting bounced around was a worse no call

Didn't Stevie shoot 2 FT?
We're a bit Helter Skelter and have zero threes. Just need to calm down it seems to me.
Only thing this game will benefit them is that it should make them tougher.

Damn UConn whines a lot.
Can't buy a fuxking 3
We suck at BOOB defense.
There ya go TK!!
Get Gold ass out of there.
UConn way better. Keep it under 15 and it's a win
We look exhausted.
Finally a 3.
Needed that one
Gold pointing to no one when his guy is 6' away from him is not exceptional defense
Finally. Our two best players need to find a way to take over right now.
Spencer is very punchable
Nut punchable?
Womp womp
Single digits at half would be a win
Danger time. D glass is hurting us.

UConn starting to show their physicality advantage......Karajan just jumps over one of our guys for the offensive rebound leading to wide open 3
Yeah...UCONN is a problem.
Donny Marshall - Insufferable
TK 2-6 shooting. Need to keep this thing within 8 at HT. Then we get hot in the 2nd half. With me? Yeah!
Bottom line is.... We have to hit shots. We got some good looks. Need to swish em. Rebounding hurting now. Need to lock it down on D but we have guys with fouls . Going to be tough to win this one but we can..... and let's do it!
UConn playing like trash up 10. Hoped for a game but this team is scared. Saint johns can take it to the wire against a crazy NMD crowd but this team is scared. Expect a 15 point loss
2nd half adjustments coming up
Their offense is frantically good. Non stop attack
Sean Jones is definitely missed.
We're playing perhaps the best team in the country on the road. Need our "A" game to win and haven't not played well enough.

Maybe Gold can hit a wide open three, not get burned three times for slam dunks and have a turnover pass leading to a three. He has not been good.
MU needed to hit threes to win and not happening just yet. 2 for 12 so far Get it down to 5 or 6 by half, but doesn't look good.
Wrong day to have a crappy shooting performance from three.

Two baskets in eight minutes.
MU 6pts in last 8 minutes
Foul trouble and brick city. Start recruiting 3 point shooters, Shaka
Love to watch the team wet the bed on national TV. Great for recruiting
Bad timing for us to go cold. Most of the 3's have been good shots.

24 pts. Not much else you can say.
Maybe the silver lining is losing by less than DePaul did
Our mobile center gets outrun down the floor by Clingham?

Pack of scumbags from top to bottom on this team. Absolute trash personality UCONN program.
Look defeated in the huddle. Staring 0-6 from 3 hurts.
On the receiving end of an absolute basketball clinic. Can't keep up if we can't hit wide open 3's.
If Kam cannot regain a pulse we can't beat the elite.
The dude is wide open against anyone not named Georgetown and he can't do it.

Unfortunately a very poor effort in half one. Fortunately, we have another half. Haven't gone from super pumped to super disappointed in a long time. UConn might be better, but we are not in it mentally or with our effort at all
Mitchell torched. UConn is by far the better team. What a lack of showing up by MU
We lost our composure frankly. Not handling the physicality and lost our poise which can't happen.
Getting so little contribution from this year's incoming class continues to grind this group down. It's also a concern looking ahead to next season.

Couldn't be more right Jump. Extremely disappointing but there is time to punch back. Brando is annoying the F out of me as a side note.
Blech - no question UConn is good, but man, gotta make the open looks.
Shaka not having his best game. He's had Kolek off the ball a ton. Should have called a couple more timeouts to try to stem these runs - team was clearly rattled - and also looked gassed a couple of times - which I'd say was more adrenaline based versus actual fatigue.
We have gotten some good looks from 3 but not falling.

Both teams ugly from three, MU missed like five in a row and UConn scored after each. UConn is just slicing and dicing with back doors and scoring on stupid MU turnovers. Very effective and impressive.
Joplin and Gold no good, maybe get it a little closer in second for moral victory.
Quote from: franklinjerry on February 17, 2024, 03:00:22 PM
Getting so little contribution from this year's incoming class continues to grind this group down. It's also a concern looking ahead to next season.
yep that killed us. We lost Omax and gained absolutely nothing from last year. not using the portal was a msitake...
Quote from: Daniel on February 17, 2024, 03:02:46 PM
UConn really not shooting well either. If we just hit our average we'd be in this game. I think we looked rattled and it got worse Have to make this a game
This is the most frustrating part, we look rattled for some reason. Play with confidence and make wide open shots.
The major dropoff in Kam's play this season wasn't on my dance card before the season.

It's one bad half of basketball on the road against the best team in the country.
Hoping the freshman would show something this year...
Feels like we've had few shots go in and out. Just not our game so far. Would be nice to start the half on a heater and make them sweat a bit.
Quote from: Judge Smails on February 17, 2024, 03:02:25 PM
Don't count these guys out just yet. We've seen some pretty good comebacks from this group.
I'm not counting them out. They have 40 minutes to turn the tables in Milwaukee. Today is not going to be a win. The rematch could produce a different outcome.
We lost by 15 here last year. Some of you all are a trip lol.

What's worse is he's pressing on defense which takes him out of rhythm even more
All the hype and the game is over 8 minutes in. even for UConn fan how boring. Waste of money. I didn't expect a win but can they at least be somewhat competitive? Embarrassing. cup cake teams put out a similar effort. So frustrating

We got bounced 2nd round last season. What's your point?
UConn gets the ball to start too because the the "jump ball" called when the UConn player had his knee in our guys stomach. lol. Even the announcers were sayin that's a foul. lol.
So.... Gonna need a good start. Kolek will explode second half. Kam too. We can use Ben to hit a few in half two. Let's Go Marquette!

What does that have to do with anything?
Bascially, UConn doesn't give us the layups we're used to getting and consequently we're tentative anywhere. UConn at home where they can get away with a little extra bumping, coupled with their size and quickness is very tough. Hurley is a good coach, they play like us with bigger and quicker and more players.
But, even during our win streack, we tend to play one blah half and one very good half. Let's hope our very good half is coming up.

He needs to get a transfusion of confidence from Aaron Hutchins.
Expect our usual strong second half but need to rebound can't give them second looks
Refreshed my beverage, and getting ready for the best comeback since 2003 at Louisville.
Quote from: Viper on February 17, 2024, 03:01:45 PM
...they lost all-BE players...and got better!! This shows what MU needs when it comes to HS recruiting and portal transfers. UConn is the benchmark.
Some truth in this as we had a schollie open.
Who's going to get hot this half?

...I'm guessing there were expectations Jop and Gold would be better, especially Gold. And, maybe Shaka felt one of the freshman could offer something. Jop has had a good run the past 5 or 6 games...and to be fair, Gold too...but UConn is the standard. It's clear what we need...and if we get it...a big that can play D and clean glass, and another 6'7" wing, we're right there. I'm not sold on TK leaving, but I suppose we'll need a pt gd too.

Put on BTN, your Badgers are Ina nail-biter with Iowa.
Every game is a tournament game.
I hope someone is pointing out to Tyler he's getting outplayed by Spencer
Shot 15% from 3 in first half. Let's try to do better in 2nd half
I actually thought BG was decent, two in and out threes. Limit the careless, lazy turnovers and make some shots. Up the energy level on D, beat the guy to the spot, box out. We aren't going to outbound anyone, but we can do a better job of limiting third chances. We need to press the permitter ball handlers.
Switched to milk this half. Let's see if that works.
Yikes Kam
How they hell do we not get that rebound.
Kam Jones has been terrible since Maui
You can try to convince yourself that this is just MU missing open shots, but this is pretty much exactly what UConn did to Creighton. Several of those missed 3's may look open, but they are rushed and out of rhythm.
Sure, MU could have made a couple more, but they would still be looking at a significant deficit against a clearly superior team.
UConn is only 4 for 18 from 3 and that includes a lot of shots they usually make. They are making up for a subpar shooting game by getting inside for easy ones. MU is not able to do that.
I'm afraid that not even the huge boost from Senior Day will get MU past these guys when they play here.
Wide open 3's and can't rebound!!
Free throws matter.
Nice work Joplin.
Not he start to 2nd half we needed
Rebounds also matter.
Kameron!
Oso looks like a freshman today
lol ball bounces off 3 MU players for a dunk. We might lose by 40.
Georgetown has entered the building!
Looking forward to the rematch
Glad we're calling Ts on the ogre
This is thoroughly disappointing.
Kinda embarrassing. Need to stage a little comeback to make it respectable
Banked 3. Then somehow can't grab an easy rebound. Yikes.
Such a bummer
embarrassing as this was the game of the day and we aren't even competitive, not a good look. shaka's team looks like they haven't played together for 2 years thats for sure

Joplin had Clingan out of the paint and no one cut to an open basket.
We're passing from the embarrassment phase into the humiliation phase.
First time we seem rattled in a game. Haven't snapped out of it yet. Wow Let's make this a game!
That's five offensive rebounds in four minutes for UConn, all leading to points. No getting destroyed on boards. Ballgame.
Clingan is just a presence on both ends, just like Edey and MU has no answer.
Unfortunately we got punched in the mouth and still don't know where we are.
Uconn has more size, better talent up and down their roster.
We have to play at our top level to beat them.
We have to get bigger and find better more consistent three point shooters.

Man, this is rough. Totally rattled. Do think he needs Gold in the game to try to create problems for Clingan.

I did see him in the first half and he/we were fine. Hurley had Clingan on the bench a fair amount while Gold was in. Gold's 2 3pt attempts were right there. Jop isn't having his best day today so I don't see why Shaka doesn't give Gold a bit more run.
If we had made a reasonable number of our wide open 3s we'd be right in this. Our shooting has doomed us and then we got rattled. We'll get em at home!
Kam is unplayable right now

Just way too many open cutters today. Very uncharacteristic for our D
Quote from: Johnny B on February 17, 2024, 03:33:14 PM
Stay out of the game thread pal
He can't. It's how he deals with his inability to handle the loss. He has to come take it out on others. It's very childish.
Kolek s defense is even terrible today. At least he had a quick nap there for the home stretch
Tyler has been backdoored 4 different times today. Can't have that.

Gold was brutal in first half, on both ends. His threes were right there, whatever that means, but he missed. Just got your wish, he is in now and five seconds in, fouls.
All in for him playing now, don't want any starters to get hurt.
Heck, let's see what next years point guard, Norman can do. Or the other two freshmen. No injuries for starters.
UCONN is very, very good, but this has been an off or uncharacteristic 30 minute from the Warriors.
We are 7 deep. Who exactly do we want to take Kam's minutes?

7'4" takes us out of our game in the paint
No 3s dooms us
We're not beating a team of UCONN'S caliber if Tyko has a rough game. There have been additional issues but every MU fan understands his importance.

Woof. Cut it to 16 get the ball, turnover, missed board, down 22.
They're not playing very hard right now.
Boy is this upsetting.
Now I wish the game was on FS1 or CBSSN or CW. :P
Appreciating Warrior Fred optimism today.

Whoops, he is still not good today. Maybe get some extended experience in second half, definitely needed.
Damn. Had a mini run, made a handful of stops, couldn't make a bucket, last turnover, two UConn threes, we might be done. Very disappointed in our grit and composure, but we live to fight another day. Let's get them in MKE!
Quote from: Vander Blue Man Group on February 17, 2024, 03:34:37 PM
Take your own advice.
Game threads are many things. Venting is among them
The best we can hope for is the MU is so embarrassed that it helps in the home game against UCONN. Nothing else can come from this.
I expect to hear Shaka kept the team after the game to run wind sprints saying "again, again, again" until the lights are turned off
We just haven't been sharp. Lack of focus and execution.
Didn't expect to win this game but that's been the most disappointing aspect.
Donny Marshall's BEPOY is " Schiermann hands down:. Oh.....okay.
Arguing that call is f'n hilarious
Trying my best to tell myself Marquette is better than this (a lot of strange bounces today), but until someone steps up and hits some shots, 2d round exit from the Tourney seems likely.
Simple analysis:
The all-American point guard was a no show. Not winning at UConn when he plays like this.
The rest is just noise
Gold... get him out! Play Al. Play anyone!!
well that game was entertaining for all of 15 minutes (real time)

Don't look at Kolek boxscore, not very nice. Newtons is very nice
Newton height on him defensively has been very effective.
The defense is stifling our movement and we're rushing shots
We played awful today, no question about i. But Clingen not having a single foul today while he's been pushing our guys under the rim every possession is hilarious. Those will get called at the Fiserv and the game will be completely different.

Really hope it is not Tournament foreshadowing. Get hit early and no can step-up to right the ship. In their losses, there have been a lot of missed 3's, missed lay-ups, missed floaters . . . the whole team seems to pack it in.
We are soft. They are totally manhandling us. Embarrassing.

Kam's dropoff has put a lot of pressure on Kolek. Now you have a 3-guard line-up, only one of whom scores.
Joplin being an undersized 4 with no lift and not great court awareness doesn't help rebounding.
Only one game though very ugly. On to the next.
Joplin really made a fool out of himself.
We could lose by 30. Horrific perfomance.
Great sportsmanship by Uconn to wipe out Jop and then play 5 and 4 up 26
Has Stevie played the 2nd half?
I need our stat scientists to tell us what Jop's eFg or PPP is when he drives
Now there is a team I can hate. Up there with Notre Dame, but not Badger level.
Gold intentionally bumping Spencer is the 💩 frosting on this cake. What the hell man?
No team loses in spectacular fashion and gets blown out on national TV quite like MU. Humiliating. 6th Kolek no show game of the season. Exactly why you can't trust this team in March.

They're not wrong
I think the 2nd half was intentional on Shakas part so they come to Milwaukee overconfident ::)
Kolek pooped the bed
Who knew the 1st half was the good half?
Well ... this is DAMN embarrassing for
MU ...
And ... this does make them look b
BADLY OVERRATED
They will drop to 7 or 8 in polls
Ouch,. Hurley bumping and talking to our players. Shaka looking shocked walking down the line. Should be. Blowouts are bad. But. Only one game.

Assuming you meant will drop 7 or 8 spots
Showed zero pride or fight after getting punched in the mouth. Hope Shaka works them hard and they take it out on DePaul.
Needs to strap in for the home stretch might not hang on to a 2 with another loss

Nope
Besides potentially TN who should obviously be ranked above us?

I'm not sure I'd say I am that big of an MU fan. Certainly am not a rabid fan like I was in my younger years. The Wojo era and distance from Milwaukee stripped me of that. However, I graduated twice from MU. It's nice when they win. Days like today don't bother me much because I'm not that invested. That said, I saw nothing today that makes me think it's realistic to expect Marquette to win the rematch. Only the most delusional of fans would think Marquette is anywhere near UConn's league. Fools like you and VBMG can pretend they are, but I'll be waiting for your excuses in a few weeks.

I cannot disagree with much of this.

lol I can't think of anyone I'd rather have call me a clown than you. When someone who consistently acts like a 13 year old boy is calling you a clown, you know that you're doing things right.

Another dubious honor for the MU program to add to the worst loss in FF history: https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/39547268/no-1-uconn-tops-marquette-historic-blowout-top-5-team

The only people who should quit watching or commenting are those who thought Wojo knew what he was doing. Those folks actually hurt the program. They either didn't have the courage or she knowledge to say Wojo was very limited in ability. Either is detrimental. It's pretty sad. Shaka is on the verge of having more winning seasons in the BE than Wojo had in 7 seasons.

Quit gatekeeping fandom you toolbag.
He's not "gatekeeping fandom." He's suggesting that if people get so "pissed off" and "embarrassed" about the result of a college basketball game, maybe they should find something else to do with their time. Because having your feelings so dependent on the results of 18-22 year olds playing a sporting event is kind of a strange thing to do.

I only have time to get stoned, drunk, and watch MU basketball. Heck next weekend I'm flying over 2k miles to risk my life in MKE to watch MU basketball with a bunch of clowns who think are my friends, I'll be drunk.

Right. This is a much healthier way of dealing with college basketball fandom.

Uh. You were the one who replied to me with something you weren't involved in. Which is fine, it's a public message board and all, but calling someone "reactionary" because of that shows a lack of self-awareness.
