When was the last time an MU team scored 91?

[Wade for President]

Incredible defensive performance last night.  LOVE how everyone is finding their roles on this team.  You play aggresive defense, cause some deflections...and Crean will reward you with pt.

Can't remember the last time we scored 90+ points in a game.  Even our lousy exhibition games are scoring struggles.

Couldn't help but think last night how much I think we're going to miss Trevor this year.  I know we looked awesome last night, and maybe that makes me think of it more.  I want us to have as few flaws as possible, and our lack of size in the post is clearly our biggest weakness.

It seemed like Ooze racked up 3 fouls in a 2 minute stretch.  Now...combine that with Burke on a night down the road who isn't effective...and we've got problems.

Don't want to sound negative in the least bit after a win like this....all it does is make you more hungry and wishing we had all our horses this year.

Let's go and run Duke off the island tonight!

We scored 92 against Douglas College on Sept 2nd of this year...

but generally you're right - we don't rely on putting up much more than 80 points in a game.. we rely on our defense to hold our opponents down.  Last time we scored more than 90 points in a game that counts (i.e. non exhibition game) was Nov 6th last year against Eastern Michigan.

Greatest single game performance I've ever personally witnessed...


Edit:  I was going to list my top 10 MU games but that trip down memory lane could last all afternoon!!!  Better to debate with buds at the bar tonight!!!

We've had some very special moments/games these past 8 years or so...

Spiral- you might want to check your numbers. We can't have a higher scoring avg than our opponents in games we lose.
