I really really don't want to wish MU would flop as much as Madison but if the refs are going to call based on it, you almost have to do it

[Mr. Sand-Knit]

Sit howard plz

[Mr. Sand-Knit]

Georgia game sit howard

Needs to calm down abit now.  Missed three and two blocked shots on last 3 possessions.  Anim miss and Hauser miss, MU not scoring now, down to 11 from 17 few minutes ago.

I have to say, at least your not biased like most of the haters on the board.

[MUEng92]

So announcer's handbook. Make 5-6 threes, "they are best shooters in country". Miss 3 "settling for the three"

[Lighthouse 84]

Damn, I like Jamal Cain. 

What a block by Theo!

[mileskishnish72]

THEO!

[Milkshakes]

Love the Frosh.  How tall is Harry. Just looking at him in the huddle he is much taller than Heldt.

[Lighthouse 84]

Bad foul by Sacar.   Then another bad foul by Sacar.  Should have been up by 13-14.

Let's keep it up for the second half boys.

Believe Howard has missed his last 7 shots, three of them blocked.  Started on fire, but ice now.  Maybe tired.

Anim stupid offensive foul,then another stupid foul, man some dumb plays.   Glad for lead, but should be at least 15 playing team hurting. 

[Mr. Sand-Knit]

Win each half

[TFlegend]

If there is such a thing as a disappointing 9 point lead at half, this is it.

[muguru]

Not good...was a lot happier when they had the 17 point lead...still think they will be okay..first 5:00 of 2nd half are crucial, get it back up to 13ish and they should be fine.

[Stretchdeltsig]

Marquette is the better team by far.  The rodents are playing hard.  Bit the Warriors will win because of their superior talent.

[MUEng92]

Am I imagining hearing a stat that Markus hadn't had a shot blocked yet this year or was it just that the number of shots blocked was way down from last year (before today of course)?

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Hate seeing the Vadgers with momentum going into half.  Rowsey needs to at least pretend to be mature.  Find a defense for Davison.

[skianth16]

We need to look to draw some fouls to get the margin more even there. I like the pace so far, but the foul differential could come back to bite us later if it doesn't improve.

Was way down... until today

Breathe.    Rowsey needs to not try to block jump shots.    MU quit moving the ball the last few minutes of the half.    Regroup, attack.

[mileskishnish72]

Refs are trying - 10 FT's to 1; 5 PFs to 10.
Some of that is dumb play, though.
Some nice feeds from Rowsey, some ill-advised drives.
Need to get Hauser mismatch more into play.
Be a shame to let this one slip away.

We could all save the typing and simply repost the in game comments from EVERY other MU UW game EVER. It the basketball version of Groundhog Day

[tower912]

Foul disparity is part of the Kohl hole mystique.   

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Dumb fouls by Rowsey and Howard. Gotta play smarter. We'd be up 20 right now. All in all, pretty good half

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

FTs are uneven but they all looked legit to me. Maybe the one at the end was a bit #soft
