DePaul 16, Gardner 5.

Looks like Buzz used the break to turn them into a highly tuned team.

Buzz, please install an offense

[WellsstreetWanderer]

Keep shooting Warriors!   Something is bound to go in

[Nevada233]

Already a victory!

Its About Damn Time!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Listening on the radio, does it look as bad as it sounds?

[madtownwarrior]

Worse, not sure how a team can regress worse each game, game after game.

Yes. It's ugly.

It's worse in person. Officiating is brutal and we have no offensive identity whatsoever. Just so not used to seeing this. It's like the MU team post Wade after Diener got hurt and Todd Townshend was our leader.

Just one of those years I think. We've been spoiled though.

I don't know if they are a team!

[MUeng]

didn't think it could get much worse after Creighton.  It certainly has.  Legitimate question: do we win a conference game this year?

Chris probably had the worst five minutes of basketball to start a game.  Obvious Buzz told them to get ball inside and backfired with his two airballs and three to's.  This start not on Buzz, the players.

Jake ugh......

Burton came in for one minute.  Had a foul and gave up a three on defense, and of course pulled.

We will. The question is when.

The horrible thing about this game if we never recover is that makes back-to-back home losses at the Bradley.

When did that last happen?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

1 on 3...Mayo is the 1...Mayo wins

[MUCrew]

What ticks me off is that the idea is when you play zone, you're not supposed to really give up offensive rebounds. You can just see lack of effort to seek the ball for a defensive rebound. It's just uninspired basketball.

If it doesn't happen against DePaul, it won't happen against anyone. On the plus side, maybe if they sweep us we can call the rivalry renewed.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Was that just back to back transition buckets? Has that happened this before this season?

[77ncaachamps]

With this saving run, I guess we can call Mayo, "Batman."

+1

It happens

Luckily, our conference TV contract has regressed in step so we don't have to watch our team!

Not only has FS1 sold off some of its inventory to CBSSN (which a fair amount of us don't get), but if you're not one with one of the few cable providers signed with Fox Sports Go you can't watch online even if the game is on FS1 and you're not at home.  It's incredibly frustrating and while we've all been singing the same "We're off ESPN!" tune, reality kicks in.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Why did refs stop calling tripping fouls?

[mugrack]

I thought everyone here hated mayo

They sold the games to CBSSN long before the season started.

sad thing is, the CBS Sports lead-in was the Tuskegee-Morehouse Division II game and there was better basketball played in that game.

I said this during the wisconsin game and was called an idiot. It's obvious if you watch the game this has been the case on more than one occasion.

[Niv Berkowitz]

This is such a disjointed lineup.

Two guards that can't or won't score in Jake and DW. Three senior "leaders" who are inconsistent or being asked to do more than they should. And a crop of young guys you think would get time. Then there the enigmas of Juan and Todd and Taylor. Just a weird I cohesive team.
