MU/UW Game Thread

[MUEng92]

They are letting them play.  Something I never thought I'd say during a MU-UW game in Madison

[MUBurrow]

Thats a hilarious timeout by Gard to make sure the game doesn't get too exciting.

Stevie Telegraphed that drive a bit much

Think we are doing a good job of making Wisco go a little more at our pace though.

MU's press is one of the worst in college basketball

And it wont work against these guys.

[MUEng92]

Why do players not follow their shots anymore?

OMax not only didn't follow his shot, he stood there and posed with his arm raised for 2-3 seconds

Obvious bump foul totally ignored by the homer refs. The hose job will continue.

Whining willie weturns

Played straight through the under 12 time out.

Man....so many missed opportunities.  The D is decent as is the D glass.   Offensively we're discombobulated. Use the shot fake at the rim.  Oso has been solid.  It's time to hit some WIDE OPEN SHOTS.  Should be. up around 8.

Wahl is another Bucky pumk.

Lewis has played selfishly so far.

Hasn't he been sitting for awhile with Joplin in instead?

Why are you so negative? We're winning outright as 6.5 point underdogs. We're 7-1 with multiple wins nobody expected.

Who hurt you?

Apparently NCAA doesn't have the same taunting rule as NFL

[MUBurrow]

Don't understand how anyone can be unhappy with the first 25% so far. After the first couple minutes, pace and flow really evolved into a game we win at least half the time.

[5DollarPitcher]

Embarrassingly negative game thread as usual. Guess nobody will be happy until we are annihilating opponents a la Gonzaga in the WAC.

You really think MU's press is effective?

Oso obviously needs a bit more strength as well.

But if his hands also improve. Boy is he gonna be tough to stop

NLW has a severe melanin allergy

[MuggsyB]

We are getting great shots

[5DollarPitcher]

Yes. If not in hard stats (steals) in the mental and physical toll it takes on teams over the course of a game.

[NolongerWarriors]

MU does a good job of getting wide open 3 attempts and the shots aren't even close.

[tower912]

4 guards and Lewis

4 guards and Lewis

Very interesting lineup.

Getting Greg and Ellis some run.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

C'mon Greg, that's what we pay you for

[MUEng92]

This is the lightest orange basketball I've ever seen since the balls we used to use in the driveway when they had no grip left

[MUBurrow]

Yes. If not in hard stats (steals) in the mental and physical toll it takes on teams over the course of a game.

Ding ding ding.  Not about steals, about pace.  The presssure forced UW out of its rythym and allowed us to go on that run.
