[Cracked Sidewalks] Marquette at North Carolina

[nyg]

NC is not that good this year.  What is there best win?  Syracuse?  This is the perfect game to schedule.  A marquee name that is an average team.  A win would build a lot of confidence and solidify Wojo being back next year.

And a loss will solidify 15 more Fire Wojo and Wojo Sucks threads/polls.

The only explanation that makes sense is that Scholl scheduled this game to allow Wojo one additional big fat loss on national TV, make his record even worse.

[MU82]

I think it's awesome this game is happening. I love whenever MU plays power conference teams that they rarely play, especially blue bloods.

Yessir. Glad this game is happening.

I don't think of it at all relative to a possible NCAA bid because the odds are too long to bother with that. If we win this one and UConn, then we can start having fun what-iffing.

Fingers crossed

Ok, this is the first step in the Marquette University, bad ass, take no prisoners revival.

We need to go into NC with a really bad attitude, play had and truly kick ass. If we foul, and we will, make sure the other guy does not get up. Scowl as your introduced and tell UNC as you shake hands, you are going down, chumps!

Then we need to back up our bad attitude with aggressive and nasty play. Take the attitude that they're going to call fouls on Theo, we are going to get our moneys worth.

In short, play aggressive. Play hard. Win!

Do we wear the Championship Blues to mess with them?

rocket says Theo's "demeanor" has changed for the better, so I guess this scenario of yours has no chance.

[Dawson Rental]

Do you include Michigan State in that, or is it a bridge too far?

Holy Shite!  Wee Willie said something clever!

[Dawson Rental]

I remember Julius Peppers had a great game against MU the last time MU went to the Dean Dome (13 & 9).

Not that great a game - no sacks or QB hurries.

[tower912]

82, will you be there?

[MU82]

82, will you be there?

Just answered in the other thread ...

My very first thought was, "Can I go to this game?"

But I've decided that it's not worth the effort in a pandemic -- Charlotte is a 3 hour drive from Chapel Hill. I'm not even sure if they're letting in fans; I think I remember that they aren't but maybe they've updated that.

I'm already looking forward to the pre-Thanksgiving event in Charleston next season, though.

UNC owes us a home game from way back, maybe the mid to late 90's. Had a home and away with them. Played at UNC.  They then declined to come to MU and instead paid some sort of a buyout. 

Should have been a game at MU!  They truly are evil.

[Viper]

No need to fire Wojo on the tarmac (Lane Kiffin). Just order Wojo a post game Uber ride to Durham. Genius.

NC beating Louisville tonight 83-50

[Billy Hoyle]

NC beating Louisville tonight 83-50

97-50 now. Damn

And bench players have scored the last 20

[geps]

UNC battering UL from pillar to post. Will be tough matchup for us for sure.

[The Sultan]

The chances of us winning this game are approximately 2%, but it will be fun.

[geps]

How good is Louisville- Xavierish?

Just hope we can keep it close. Could get ugly.

[cheebs09]

How good is Louisville- Xavierish?

Well, the Badgers stomped them, and we beat the Badgers.

[WarriorFan]

It's like this:   I want MU to win out AND I want wojo fired.

I mean, if we truly win out I don't think we can fire a coach after a national championship run

Well said and very true.  We need to play with fire like we did against Wisconsin and Butler. We also need Justin Lewis healthy. It's Gold blood vs. Blue blood. Go Warriors kick ass.

Well, the last coach who won the national championship for MU immediately lost his coaching job so there's that.

He only wins the easy national titles.
