Markus scored a lot.  Thought he forced it at times today.

SOTG Markus. Sacar didn't really shoot much better although he did play well. Shoutout to Theo for 6 blocks, Jayce for manning the boards and Cain for showing up to play. Koby had a quiet good game and didn't force anything.

Team ft rate.  Know it's supposed to go to a player, but that's where we won the game.  Markus attempted and made the most, so I'll go with him, although no complaints if Sacar gets it.

Clearly markus. 32 points 4 dimes 6 rebounds. Created alot of the offense for him and others.

Sacar played great but most of his points were catching and shooting open 3s. Less assists and rebounds than markus like wtf no its markus frickin howard. Feel like there is this natural inclination to pick someone else cuz markus always gets it. Well duh because he puts up elete numbers almost every game.

It's Markus with Sacar playing the role of Robin.

Loved what the bigs did today. If you could combine Jayce on offense with Theo on defense you would have yourself a pretty good big man.

Markus. Aside from usual scoring output he hit Sacar for a big corner three and dropped a dime to Jayce to keep the lead at 3 possessions. He put us in a great position at the end of the first half then closed it out in the 2nd.

A lot of guys had very nice games but Markus was the stud.

Howard. Kept us there in the first half, led the team in assists, and was in good position to pull in 6 rebounds. He played like an All-American, and unlike Tony Smith, Scoop shouldn't punish Howard because he's that good.

Yup. None of the other performances were as critical for the win as Markus. He's commanding all the attention and leaving guys like Sacar and Bailey wide open. Meanwhile he makes mainly all contested threes.

We're gonna have to disagree here. If you compare last night to the typical Markus game, he deferred to others FAR more than he typically would, and he didn't take any shots that he doesn't take virtually every game.

This award is Stud of the Game, not just MVP. Hell, Frozena even won once on a pity vote. Key contributors who stepped up are worthy of consideration and have won in the past numerous times. It’s not a slight to not pick Markus. The criteria is whatever mood Rocky wakes up in.

During Marquette's current three-game winning streak, Markus is averaging 36.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.7 turnovers per game. Total stud.

The stud of the game should be the player that was most critical in helping MU to victory. I rarely have disagreed with the selections by the admins. A key contributor that gets the honorable mention is a player that outplayed their usual expectations.

In this case, Sacar scored more than he normally does. But his production was not that of Markus. Jamal contributed much more than he normally does as well. Does that mean Jamal Cain was the stud of the game? Absolutely not. He played above his norm. Something to be recognized but not to go overboard making a different choice for the sake of it. It's like giving Alex Caurso sotg when he drops 15 and 8 despite Lebron posting a triple double.

I don't disagree that others are playing well, and playing hard in these games.  But Markus is still outscoring everyone, while simultaneously drawing more defenders and helping others get easier shots.  It's really incredible.
