Yup, you didn't graduate from Marquette? Your grasp of English is poor.

Quote from: MU82 on January 11, 2026, 04:12:54 PMAgain, if you're Nova, why wouldn't you just let James drive all the way to the hoop while covering all shooters on the perimeter?

Unless this is like Wojo forgetting the time & score, I'm hoping our team knew they needed a three and wouldn't have driven for a buzzer beating layup that left us a point short.

Though considering our past game winning attempts, maybe I give them too much credit.

Quote from: Dish on January 11, 2026, 08:02:02 PMThey're going to give up yards and points, the Rams are as good as any offense in the league.

They're also a different team on the road. I'll include the London game in this, but they are 4-3 when traveling cross country this year. They will have travelled over 10,000 air miles in the last five weeks. That ain't nothing.

Could the Bears get beat up? Sure, Stafford has played many games in the cold, Nacua will do what he does.

In the divisional round, you're going to play a good/great team. Game on Saturday night.
Agreed, none of the match ups would be "great", every team is great at this point. The Rams -4?

Honestly,  just happy to be here. It's all gravy and experience now.

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on January 11, 2026, 08:08:58 PMAgree with all of that except Gard is #3. Bo and Bennett are by far #1 and #2 (begrudgingly I have to put Bo at #1).

Bennett had a great Final 4 run, but 3 bids in 6 years & no NCAA wins outside that run, he just didn't have the sustained success or longevity that Gard has had. He doesn't get extra credit for Stevens Point or Green Bay.

Not sure what the situation is at Cincinnati but surely it can't be that bad, right?. Regardless, it's nice knowing that Marquette fans would never stoop this low, even with a season like the one we're having. At least I hope not.

Quote from: brewcity77 on January 11, 2026, 07:47:38 AMMaybe, but I think you vastly underrate Gard.

I'm not saying I like Gard better, but Greg Gard is pretty clearly the second best coach in Wisconsin Badger history and is a good D1 coach. He doesn't have a Final Four or NCOY award like Shaka, but he's adapted his program to both transfers and a faster pace. If he's at Wisconsin another 10 years, he'll almost certainly be the winningest coach in their history.

There's nothing wrong with acknowledging your rival is good, and Greg Gard is certainly a good coach.

Agree with all of that except Gard is #3. Bo and Bennett are by far #1 and #2 (begrudgingly I have to put Bo at #1).

I am disappointed in both coaches not being able to keep some home grown talent home.  Gard right now has the upper hand of understanding today's environment.  Finding Tonje last year this year Boyd. Finds kids that make shots, beating Michigan was impressive.  Shaka has recruited more athletic players whom might not be good hoop players. To many misses in the recruiting game.  Finally, trying to figure out what Shaka's offense does, late game poor, Gard has shooters, Shaka does not. It will be very interesting to see how both coaches play the portal this year.  Gard will do something, Shaka who knows?

The defense is going to give up lots of yards. Accept that part now

They're going to give up yards and points, the Rams are as good as any offense in the league.
