MU/XU Game Thread

Tough close to the half.  We saw some good things but I was hoping +10-12.

Yep didn't like Shaka finishing the half with a lot of bench guys in there together.

Overall an average half but Marquette needs to get a nice run early in the half to get the crowd into it

[PGsHeroes32]

If I'm Shaka, I start calling time out at about the 2 min mark to end the half. As good as we've been in this stretch we still are terrible at finishing the first half. We go into a fog and crap the bed at both ends of the floor.

He did call a TO. With under 3 to finally get a stoppage and some subs.

Unfortunately the long length with no whistle kinda messed our rotations and we didnt have the most preferred linup out to close the half.

Live line has marquette favored by 2 points. ill take that all day

I would totally not be opposed to Davison and Kunkel going into the Thunderdome.

[Fred Garvin]

Need Greg to have a good second half

[Daniel]

We can attack this team at will.  Continue to bludgeon the paint with power and find Kunkel.

Agree Mugsy!  Take it in.  Draw fouls, score, kick out!

Would have been if Kolek didn't miss again on two, two foot shots and then give the ball away for an X layup. 

Mitchell came in and shut down Odom, who beat MU last time.  Shaka needs to find someone to get on Kunkel.  Freemantle will be back on floor with his two fouls though. 

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

Feels like we should have had a 8-10 point lead at half.

[PGsHeroes32]

Alright time to get it going

[Fred Garvin]

Cmon Kur we need ya!!!

[MUEng92]

I liked it better when I was as catching up on the game with my DVR and I could fast forward through good X things

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Ugh, right down the lane three straight times

[Daniel]

X missed a lot of shots so they are taking it in on us.   Need to change up D on that.   

[DoctorV]

Starting to feel like a game Marquette won't win conventionally.

Shaka has to find something to get the guys fired up

[DoctorV]

Kolek 3, unconventional

[MUEng92]

Who is this announcer?

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Ugh, right down the lane three straight times

Four straight times

[MUEng92]

Goaltending

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Four straight times

Five straight times

[DoctorV]

Operation FEED JUSTIN

[jesmu84]

Xavier scoring at will

[PGsHeroes32]

Gonna need to get a stop this half

[Fred Garvin]

Maybe zone?

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Need to pick up the D, gentlemen

[MUeng]

Looks like Marq has decided to not play defense in the 2nd half...18 in 4 mins??! Wow
