Is there a statistic for 3-pt defense?

[Da 'Lanche]

2-17 from 3?   Good God

[lohaus]

Absolutely shredded.  Iowa giving a lesson on running  the floor, passing the ball up, and quick touch passes for lay ups.  Rhythm shots from 3.  If you are going to get killed then work on your man defense instead off this garbage 2-3 zone against a veteran team.

They basically are.

how come james, mcneal, and matthews won as freshman?

sure they had novak...he developed. how come our 3 veteran guys haven't developed....at all

[PGsHeroes32]

Looks like saying we lose by 40 was generous

[WellsstreetWanderer]

Sandy in with 3 fouls and on 1:11 left?

[GooooMarquette]

Now I know how a baby seal feels like after while being beaten by a club.

LSU will be fun

Going to be a very long year. This team will not respond to the coaching staff. Hate to say it but at least the players played hard for buzz. Listened to what he had to say. MU can keep throwing up 3s with zero ramifications.

You have no idea what is going to happen this year.   Two weeks ago we had folks here saying St. John's was not going to compete and tonight they knocked off a Big Ten team. 

Tonight, we look horrible.  You must have quality guards to play at a high level.  We don't, and the ones we have are young.  But let's see how the react at halftime, how they react the next game, etc.

By the way, Buzz is gone....done....his last year players were hardly playing hard for him.  So stop.

Ellenson is having a difficult time adjusting to the double team.

And you could see real potential with those guys from the get-go.

Sure doesn't look like that with this group.

[Herman Cain]

JJJ nice drive. He is fine when he sticks with that.

[GooooMarquette]

And another TO....

[Frenns Liquor Depot]

I can live with the shitty offense. There is no excuse for how terrible the defense is. Wow - when has Iowa last put up 100

[real chili 83]

Soooooo, what's everyone drinking?

Gonna start now.

[ChicosBailBonds]

I can live with the crapty offense. There is no excuse for how terrible the defense is. Wow - when has Iowa last put up 100

A few nights ago....they scored 103

[warriorfan 14]

pathetic half. wojo needs to hear it from the fans as that was as undisciplined of an effort as i have seen. can't watch anymore of this garbage

[GooooMarquette]

Billy, have you ever been to a Turkish prison?

[brewcity77]

They also had Crean, who is a much better (much, much, much) game coach than Wojo has proven to be thus far.

I'm the eternal optimist, but it's really hard with what we've seen the past two years. Henry is a phenomenal talent, but this team feels like a wasteland around him.

[mileskishnish72]

Reminds me of KU in the Final Four.

[Class71]

Only 12 turnovers at the half. That is not so bad, Al has already turned over in his grave at least three dozen times after watching this game from above. Come on back Al, we need you.

[Newsdreams]

It is going to be a long season 

[LloydsLegs]

A few nights ago....they scored 103

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

This team really needed a few grad transfers or JUCOs. It is soft as hell.

I still think this team can do something this season, but that was the low of lows.

Honestly super hard to even watch.

[nyg]

Can't make this up:

MU:    8 for 31, with 2 of 19 from three     19 of 31 shots from three.
Iowa: 19 for 37, with 7 of 14 from three

12 Turnovers, 4 assists.

Worst three games of defense I have ever seen and I thought last year's team's three point defense was horrid.
