Am I the only one that doesn’t give a chit if this was a trap game or not?

No sir. I'm right there with you, and I'm sure there are plenty of others.

But hey, this thread was pretty much all that's wonderiffic about Scoop!

So, I just heard it again.
“Marquette just avoided a potential trap game with that win.”
It was a trap game....by definition.
It’s strange how the definition of a trap game changes from pregame to postgame.
It. Was. A. Trap game.
Because we won, does that now mean that it never was a trap game? Odd how that changes.
Because we won is awesome, but point still stands that it was trap game.

I'm not sure what you're arguing.  This was a trap game.  Trap games aren't automatic losses.  They're dangerous games before a big game.  That's exactly what this game was.

Not arguing—-I agree with everything you just said. I said the same.
I’m trying to understand from those who say this wasn’t a trap game because we won.

Is our game against Creighton next Sunday big? If so, Nova would fit your definition of a trap game, as Nova is clearly dangerous.

No...there was never ANYTHING remotely dangerous about this game...NOTHING. This was a game that was won before it was even played.
