Now what is the question?



What was CTWarrior's freshman year at MU?

 or

Coincidentally, what was the season that ended MU's decade plus run in the top 20?

 or

In what season did Sam Worthen take control of a tight game and lead MU past ND in South Bend?

Nah, I would say that was probably more recent, but if you want to continue with the "woe is me" attitude, then that's fine.

What's wrong, were you banned from Dodds board this afternoon Nate?

Now what is the question?



MU went 8-1 to finish the regular season and get a NCAA bid

Or

MU broke its 13 year streak of 20 win seasons

Or

Pardner drank the ND Senior Club dry after "Sam Worthen take control of a tight game and lead MU past ND in South Bend"?

1979-80 was the last time Marquette made the NCAA Tournament 3 years in a row.

We're trying to do that this year

More so, it was the last year of a ten year NCAA streak.  Amazing run considering there were a lot less teams invited to the Big Dance during that run.

What's more amazing to me is that it's been almost 30 years for a 3 year mini-run.

Let's hope so on the three year run.  Some dirty work to be done yet.  With the pipeline coming, it would be nice to challenge that 10 streak.

This team needs to know this fact - tribute to their last 3 years.  It would be amazing if they make it all 4 years of their career.  This would be the best class in MU over the last 25 years.

How you like them apples?

I noticed that also. Could it have been just the sweater? With that hair, she looked like something out of the Lion King.

Once a McCormick ice cream machine, always a McCormick ice cream machine ;D

What came first, the sweater or the puppies?   8-)

As I was trying to scam a look at her without being too obvious, Mrs. FryBoy says, "Damn, Erin Andrews is just hot."  Free rein to be a pig for ZFB.   ;D
