Title: Seton in the morning sun...
Post by: tower912 on February 18, 2025, 07:23:18 AM
Game Day.  That wonderful day where some of us stop savaging each other long enough to attack the opposing team.  I hope the players were able to enjoy some r&r, heal, clear their minds, and get ready for the final push.   Giddyup.

I'm sure the game thread will be free of scoopers savaging one another.

Seton Hall, or Seton Hell as it was called on UConn's site, no doubt has hopes and dreams of pulling off another big upset. Time to crush those hopes and dreams.

Honestly, I don't necessarily trust MU to cover until I see them start playing better.  However, I'd take MU in this one since SHU is just a pretty bad team - despite their luck against UConn.

Regardless, staying away at -18.5.

Feels critical to start strong and deflate energy that Seton Hall will certainly bring, following their exciting win over UConn. Don't let them get into the game and believe that can pull off another upset away from their home court.

Of course, MU hasn't exactly been a strong first half team throughout the season.

On the other hand, I had a dream last night that during the MU game I was at, we were up by 41 points in the first half. A guy can hope that happens tonight, right?

Yeah, that line ... I knew we'd be favored by a lot, but I wasn't expecting all that after what they did to UConn.

Easy cover. They should have a bit of a letdown after their biggest win of the season and Marquette should come out with renewed sense of season.

Everything is still in the balance and I'm sure Shaka got that message across. If Marquette is flat again tonight I'll probably start to get a bit concerned.

Shaka isn't into running score for metrics, he will use a lot of the bench with a big lead tonight.

I think we'll play well and win the game comfortably, but I don't know about 18.5 points being an "easy cover."

A team can totally dominate a game and be up double digits from nearly start to finish without winning by 19 points. I mean, if Holloway keeps his rotation players in after Shaka subs in our walk-ons, a 28-point lead can get to 18 in a minute. We've seen it before.

Also, a team can "want it" and "focus" and all that other stuff and still not execute or shoot well enough to win. It wasn't as if Seton Hall was still sneaking up on UConn once the second half arrived Saturday. You don't think UConn was taking SH seriously and "motivated" when it was, say, 28-26 early in the second half?

Admittedly a detour of the thread, but the "your mama" joke reminded me of my favorite one. I heard it on Prairie Home Companion when Garrison Keillor and Paula Poundstone were swapping mama jokes. Paula's prize winner?
