Tonight’s Game Thread

Well that's just strange.  Unexpected things only happen when they lose?  There was unexpected things in last night's game.  The switch to zone.  Sacar's game.

But people in the game threads just bitch when things are going bad.


The concept isn't hard to grasp.  The oddness of it is.

its a win. Great!  First one ever?  If so, on the next one, act like you've been there before.

Had to watch online (thanks for the youtube link, whoever put it up!) and things looked grim when Markus went down. Big win for Wojo, the team and the program - they had every reason to mail it in down 13 in the second half with Markus out of action but refused to quit. McDermott nailed it in his huddle with about 7 minutes remaining when he told his team "Those guys in blue aren't 'supposed to' win but they want it more than you do!" The boys were warriors tonight!

Dang! I wish like heck I had thought to check YouTube!!! Will the same link be available for Wednesday's beatdown of St. John's? I don't want to miss any of Sacar's 53 points!!!

I didn't post in that thread, but MU looked so horrendous through ~25 minutes of play, enough to very much doubt not just the next ~5 games, but the next 35.   

The final 15 minutes was miraculous.

To be fair, I thought we looked good through the first 8 or so and basically the entire second half.

I'm good. 

LOL. A legend in your own mind.

Predictable.  Personalities and attitudes and character have been revealed.   What would be fun is if the upbeat crowd went postal and the negative Nancys  suddenly became chipper.

Great win last night.  Quality win, quadrant 1 win, on the road, hostile environment, down 16, #1 scorer with brutal injury, nothing is looking good for 25 minutes, WIN that gives hope for 2018 and 2019.  Unexpected and really fun.

But people have gone equally over-board on this win than any loss.  It's one game, one shining moment for the team and coach in a season full of performances that make MU worthy of their 6-8 record. 

Welcome aboard the MU Scoop roller-coaster.  Admission is two beef n cheddars.

Way overpriced!
