As I write this, Markus is 17-for-17 from the line. When will that first FT miss take place?

Next week. He'll crack under the pressure of our big 3-game stretch.
43 (29.1%)
After next week, but before we ring in 2018 due to overdose of eggnog.
19 (12.8%)
Jan. 12 at Butler. I'm making the trip to that game, so I guess I'll be the jinx.
19 (12.8%)
Next season. That's right ... he won't even miss when we're in the Final Four!
17 (11.5%)
Never. And that includes his 15-year NBA career.

The NCAA all-time record for consecutive FTs made is 85.

Novak #3 all-time at 68

I am going by my memory, but I think Novak missed both throws when the streak ended. It could of been another streak he had. Probably missed the second, because he was upset about missing the first.

Now 45 in a row.

If there was one game he could have missed a throw, it was the one with the bad eye.

Plus I think he got roughed up one one before going to the line. I thought that was a tough position for him, but knocked them down like no big deal.

19 consecutive makes away from entering the top five all-time.  That should be about 4 or 5 games.

Markus is now at 45 straight ... and counting

Though the Providence game he is 38 for 38 FTs
http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/4065805/markus-howard

He also hit his last 7 in a row to end last season
http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/gamelog/_/id/4065805/year/2017/markus-howard

He is 19 consecutive makes away from cracking the top 5 all-time.  23 straight from tying Novak.

Does anyone know how many Novak did hit in a row? Howard currently sits at 36 in a row counting his last 9 makes last year.

I will admit that when Markus went to the line to complete the 3-point play that tied the game near the end of regulation, I turned to my wife and said: "This guy hasn't missed a free throw all year. He'd better not miss this one."

He didn't. Swish.

I'm sticking with NEVER!

Well, we've gotten through the first two levels of this, and Markus is 51-for-51.

Next up: The Butler game.

I have a flight to Indy and tickets to the game, but it's supposed to rain all day tomorrow, get very cold and windy overnight and then have ice and snow on Friday morning, so I don't know if my flight will happen or not. I'd be super-bummed if it doesn't cuz I'm supposed to meet a couple of buds.

And I want to see Markus go 11-for-11 from the line in our big 80-70 road win to pass Novak for the 3rd-longest streak ever!

To be clear, because there's some confusion on this, Markus' streak now sits at 60. He made his final 9 free throws of the 2016-17 season. He scored the final two points of the Creighton win at the line with 5 seconds to play, went 7/7 against Seton Hall at MSG, and didn't shoot a free throw against South Carolina.

I believe the confusion is because of the Creighton game. He went 2/4 in that game and missed the front end of two one-and-one opportunities with 0:42 and 0:32 on the clock, respectively. The key is that the two he made were the last two, thus the beginning of the streak.

Not singling you out, 82, just want us to be accurate in knowing that when Markus makes 9 more in a row, we can celebrate him breaking Novak's record. When he makes 26, he'll have broken Darnell Archey's all time record of 85.

What is the record for consecutive free throws from the beginning of the season?

Does the NCAA record account for multiple seasons, or is it just for a single season? Based on the graphic in this thread, it seems like it's just for a single season.

If you read the article, it mentions that Archey's streak went from February 2001 to January 2003.

Thanks, brew. I like facts, and I certainly wasn't trying to misrepresent anything.

So he's at 60 - amazing!!

I'll settle for 9-for-9 at Butler ... whether or not my flight ever takes off.

9 for 9 on top of the 60 already made.

Nice.

Rowsey is shooting .906 from the line.

He is Marquette's THIRD-best FT shooter.

What an effen slacker!!

And being too lazy to look anything up, I'll bet #2 is Matty.  Dude has been a model of consistency all season.  And when you can have your big guy on the floor during hackatime in end games situations, you'll hold a lot of 2-3 possession leads through the final horn.

I'm guessing Matty too.

It's close but Sams got him by 6.

17/19 for Matt

23/25 for Sam.

Sam is shooting .920 from the line.

Matt is at .895, which is very good for anybody, let alone a center, let alone any team's FOURTH-best FT shooter.

Of course, Matt's sample size is quite small (only 19 attempts in 17 games). My main problem with having him on the floor at the end of a game in a "they're gonna foul us" situation has nothing to do with his FT stroke. He's pretty slow and, mostly, he doesn't have the best hands.
