Sooo wasted
Let's do this and show what a joke it is we opened +1!
Tonight is another opportunity for the Marquette student athletes to represent themselves and their university on the court. The lessons of teamwork and practice are far more valuable than the outcome of the game, thus, they have already won.
Are rico and news the same guy?

Agreed. It's starting to get pretty frustrating. I get they are open looks but it's almost always too early in the possession for him to take those shots. Move the ball around to see if we can get kam or others an open look before settling.

That's where I'm at, and it was choppy for a bit.
Marquette is an above average basketball team
That wasn't a foul? Should have been an and 1! Keep attacking the rim!
Our defense is totally overwhelming Dayton right now.
That was a total BS call. Puts Jones on the bench.
Bshit!!! Kam just stood straight up!!
Feel like a broken record saying this but kam needs to be a lot smarter with the fouls. This will cost us in march.
What a bunch of fking crap.
Thatta boy Chase.
I can't think of a sport that what Hamilton just did wouldn't be a foul/penalty
Huge answer from Chase.
Really unbalanced officiating so far. Both teams playing aggressive D, but fouls only be called on one end. The Mitchell no call, and then the Jones foul call was egregious.
Damn. Kam fouls are a problem.
Hamilton's basketball awareness and IQ need to develop (and I'm sure they will). His positioning on both ends and court awareness are definitely lacking.
Foul after foul. Hamilton looking like a bull in a china shop.
Throw him out.
Posh is a problem. And it should have been a foul on MU
Offense without Kam P U

Feels like he sits in the first half due to
Fouls every game. It's ludicrous
Kam's 1st foul was completely unnecessary
Pretty sloppy BB being played. Jones in foul trouble. Mitchell with a TO. Hamilton playing clueless.
STFU Laapas. They missed one and they've missed many from them.
There will be a makeup call
He didn't get hit in the head. His awkward landing seems 50% foul and 50% hanging on the rim too long
Should it have been a foul, probably. But Grant going batcrap crazy was definitely a T.
Lappas needs to STFU
Jop needs to wake up and score the ball with Kam on the bench.
Lampas is insufferable.
That was a foul, but the reaction was way over the top. Nice work by Ross making them pay.
Steve Lavin is incredibly irritating. He seems to have this idea that Dayton has not been getting a good whistle.
Stevie hit his first shot and has been subpar offensively since
That's you want to see from Ben
Omg Laapas. Stfu.
OMG is Lappas insufferable.

That's a silly foul from Ben. Gotta be smarter.
I hate the tip rebound attempts except when they work
Keep fouling MU.It matters
Joplin has the NC State look on his face.
Jop needs to be more engaged.
Posh committed about 4 fouls on that play.

Joplin says. Offense isn't working, so I'll just ring up 3.
Jopppppppp!!!!
Grab that rebound.
This is by far the best defensive team Shaka has had at Marquette. So much length and athleticism.
Not much more frustrating than playing great defense to result in a bad shot only to jump too early and not get the rebound
Quote from: MUEng92 on December 14, 2024, 06:48:10 PMI hate the tip rebound attempts except when they work
To my eyes it seems developing the tip tactic last year has helped their offense rebounding quite a bit.
We got good Jop today!!
We have 3 guys under the basket and the Dayton guy gets the board. Terrible boxing out.

Maybe it's me but I think Dayton fouls every possession. Just saying. And they're hands fouls.

lol. and then MUBB immediately trapped the rebounder and forced Dayton to use their second timeout of the half.
Based on posts so far, I get the idea this was WW at 6:11.

Gold dis-engaging his brain with authority
Chase needs to learn to pass the ball in transition. He simply will not.
Yeah, man, this MUBB team just can't rebound today! ::)
Chase got that but give the ball up on a 2 on 1. Let's go now!

Elite-level basketball seems to favor taking it yourself these days, but do agree he should've given that one up.
Cmon Stevie. Why so much dribbling?

Quote from: MuggsyB on December 14, 2024, 06:58:56 PMChase got that but give the ball up on a 2 on 1. Let's go now!
Disagree on that one. I think he played it right. Had a chance for an and 1 where the only possible person who could get a rebound with a miss was an MU player.
The MU player was trailing too far behind, would have been too easy to defend if he gave it up.
Man, Ross was fouled 4 times at the end again.
I'm glad they're seeing this zone early in the season
Laapas is really infuriating me. We all know how bad he is but do your fking job dude.
Excellent Defense in first half. Lets keep up the energy second half.
DAYTON
FOULS
CONSTANTLY
I don't think it's debatable.
Great job so far but gonna need to keep the foot on the defensive pedal out of the half. Dayton shot 1-9 from deep. I've got a feeling they're gonna pull a Colorado and shoot more closely to their average in the second.
Pete Gillian looks like Jon Gruden in 15 years

Yet it was 10 - 5 in terms of foul calls. That's crazy given how aggressive and handsy they've been on defense.
Good job weathering the storm the last 9 minutes with Kam in foul trouble
Quote from: forgetful on December 14, 2024, 07:08:39 PMYet it was 10 - 5 in terms of foul calls. That's crazy given how aggressive and handsy they've been on defense.
That's exactly what I was thinking. It would be one thing if they were aggressive and not handsy but they are.
Just checked out some of this thread. Are we losing?
Lappas stinks almost as much as the 2nd foul call on Kam.
The start of the UConn zags game is high energy
I hope Dayton plays that D against Kam the whole 2nd half
Good Lord Kam what are you thinking?
All you can do is laugh cya
Kam really needs to be smarter.
Good fking grief. Why???
I'm not saying they weren't fouls. But all 3 fouls against Jones have been so weak, and so different than how they've called the rest of the game.
Quote from: MUEng92 on December 14, 2024, 07:20:29 PMGood Lord Kam what are you thinking?
Has to figure this out.
Dumb plays all around
Goddammit! Kam has GOT to learn not to foul!
This seems to be the bad half
Kam has played very stupid tonight. He took himself out of this one.
Have to stop the bleeding right now. Just an enormous swing with Kam getting his 3rd. And it can't happen. Regardless of the uneven officiating.
I don't want to lose to these aholes.
I'm not concerned about Kam's fouls today (in March I very much will be). I'd like to see Owens and Hamilton use these minutes to grow and learn. Last two offensive possessions for Owens are hopefully learning experiences.
We just look tentative on offense..some bad spacing possessions. Kam off the floor amplifies the disorganization.
4 MU players, one Dayton player and guess who gets the rebound
Quote from: MUEng92 on December 14, 2024, 07:27:08 PM4 MU players, one Dayton player and guess who gets the rebound
Bounced perfectally to him
Was Mitchell fouled on that drive?
Kam gonna have to play. If he fouls out in 2 minutes so be it
I'm the foolish one for thinking I'd get through this game without a cocktail
Unfortunately Anthony Grant was successful in his outburst. Officials successfully manipulated. They're changing the game right now.

This is right on. Kam with 3 takes away an element of defensive aggression he can play with going forward.
Jop has really weak hands on the defensive glass.
Catch the ball.
Where's the team from the 1st half?
Joplin is so bad
Why isn't Jop taking that catch and shoot?
Not moving the ball offensively.
Shaka physically pushed Zaide to make that cut ;D ;D
Let's go now!
5 seconds in the lane?
A lesson I have to relearn every college bball season. A 13 pt lead ain't safe.
I'm sensing Kam getting called for an offensive foul on a flop before the end of this game
So fucking weak call
Quote from: MUEng92 on December 14, 2024, 07:36:56 PM5 seconds in the lane?
Definitely. Then that was a bail out call. A ref way out of position calls a blocking foul, when that hasn't been called all game.
Wow..they just call a touch foul on Chase guarding Alexander, and Alexander been bodying the F out of Kam. Ridiculous call.
I can't wait for Marquette to finally get home calls
They call that? With what Dayton has done defensively? WTF?
Kam is uncharacteristically forcing. Move the basketball. Get everyone involved.
The model I ran said that above a +4 home court advantage Dayton had the advantage. Feel like the officiating has been at least a +4 home court advantage.
Quote from: MuggsyB on December 14, 2024, 07:39:36 PMKam is uncharacteristically forcing. Move the basketball. Get everyone involved.
Agreed.
Marquette scared to go man defense due to the fouls calling
That chase block could be the play of the game if Marquette wins
Getting abused by bigger bodies inside but no Caedin
Why even put Stevie in if he's gonna play like this? Good Lord...
Thatta boy Ben.
BENNY FUCKING GOLD YOU BELONG!!!
God damnit Ben
WTF.
This sucks
How can they not call the holding of Kam before the steal?
What an absolutely sloppy ass half.
Super sloppy on backcourt inbounds tonight. If MU loses this game by 4 or less, easy to look at those two lousy turnovers.
Refs let them (posh) play super physical and called us (kam) for ticky tack fouls.
Posh allowed to grab and hold Kam on the inbounds
How much contact is posh allowed exactly? Also how old is that guy, 28?
We need to win this game with grit and toughness. And it has to be all 5 guys on the floor.
Our toughness went out the window in the 2nd half.
Uncharacteristic.
We haven't looked comfortable all night against their press. But refs are really letting Dayton play quite physically on D, and meanwhile, Kam gets called for 2 tick tack, weak fouls.
Quote from: warriors141 on December 14, 2024, 07:46:04 PMHow much contact is posh allowed exactly?
5x more than kam is.

And then that screen call. I'm sorry, but MU would be winning by 20 right now if it weren't for this officiating.
Need a time-out.
Ross having a very good game. Wow
Ross fouled twice on that drive.
Goooolllldddd crapping all over the floor
Chase has been great tonight. The rest of the guys need to wake the F up.
Gold's screen can be called a foul, but 23 on Dayton has done that on at least 5 plays.
There literally has to be blood drawn on MU players
Royce is unplayable right now. 0 toughness tonight from him.
Elbows Chase Ross in the face and the call is on Ross. This is INSANE.

I really don't enjoy college basketball when it's officiated like this. You just don't have this in the NBA.
So soft. Wow.
That's game changing steal
God, we suck at BOOB defense.
Been a very frustrating gane. But we have to forget about the zebras and find a way.
Sht.

I must be watching a different game than you guys. The Gold moving screen was egregious, but MU's been sloppy, at times confused/lazy on defense, and other times pounded in the paint by Key. If MU loses this game, there's a mirror to blame, not a zebra.

Regardless of outcome this is a good punch in the mouth
And the air ball yields the put back. Followed up by Ross getting hammered twice in that dunk with no call.
This is not a big Dayton team and they're absolutely destroying us on the glass.
Need a big part 1000
Tip the cap.. miracle play after miracle...
Every good defensive possession results in an open Dayton layup
Bigs look so weak on the glass tonight. Got their ass completely kicked.
Our inability to rebound is going to lose us this game
Getting killed on the glass.
In the NBA. Ross would be shooting 3, and that would be a technical on Dayton.
Has there been 1 stop in the last 7 Dayton possessions?

Man, what happened to Stevie's FT shooting?
Even on that play. Mitchell was damn near tackled, to the point he couldn't go up for a shot. No call! Then he is finally able to fight through the fouls to get the ball up, and it was a delayed whistle (waiting to see him miss first).
Just ridiculous.
Fk!!! Cmon Stevie.
Mitchell...woof.
They can't get out of Ohio fast enough
What a fucking choke job. Pissed down their leg
Yikes. Stevie two missed free throws and and an air ball.
I'd love to see a fair game between these two. Really a shame. As waste of two hours as a fan.
Omg.
Why did Mitchell chuck that 3?
What an absolute garbage performance in the second half. I love Stevie, but he was awful tonight.
Definitely a wake up call tonight.
They are going to be a lot of conference games in hostile environments and they're going to have to deal with them a lot better than they did tonight.

Just better than Marquette (at least tonight).
Wow, classic choke.

The game thread - with overreactions like this - is truly embarrassing. The team lost on the road to a good college basketball squad that almost never loses at home. MU is not a 4/5 seed because it lost a quad 1 game in a hostile environment. Oy vey!

At this point are you kidding?
LOL. Pay attention.

I am? Before the game they're ranked six projected 2 or 3 seed... now we lose to top 25
Team on the road and 4 or 5 is the goal? you may end up being right but that's some low expectations atm
Quote from: bradforster on December 14, 2024, 08:19:13 PMThe game thread - with overreactions like this - is truly embarrassing. The team lost on the road to a good college basketball squad that almost never loses at home. MU is not a 4/5 seed because it lost a quad 1 game in a hostile environment. Oy vey!
Maybe you weren't watching. It's the way they lost. This team is capable of collapsing in grand fashion. Keep believing they're a 1 or 2 though.

I know this type is common across sports fandom, but it's so over-represented among MU fans. Arguably this is the stereotypical MUBB fan.

I watch every minute of every game. Dayton won this contest by outrebounding Marquette and winning the turnover battle by a 2 - 1 margin. Even though it snowballed on MU in the second half, Stevie had a wide open three with 50 seconds left to make it a one point game. I'm not going to panic over a road loss to a team that's 38 and 2 on its home floor the last two and a half seasons.
The early Kam foul in the 2nd half with Marquette up 13 gave me an uneasy feeling. That was the turning point in this one. Credit Dayton for staying poised and making the right adjustments at the half.
I honestly hate to say this, but Dayton wouldn't be the worst addition to the big east if we lost UCONN at some point. Pretty legit program that cares deeply about basketball.
(Mods: please ban me if this crosses a line.)

Ok, I won't believe it.
Believe Sean Jones could of helped us win
