MU/Butler Game Thread

[MuggsyB]

UConn showed the way to defend us.  Guard everyone one one one and don't leave your man.

Maybe.....but what about the 31 pts we allowed in 10 mins?  To a garbage offensive team?

It's embarrassing that people find this to be a silver lining.

be embarrassed.

Hero ball, no passing, not closing out under control...its like they forgot what got them to where they are.

🤷🏼‍♂️

Lazy rebounding.   Down 19 and watching the ball bounce to Butler.   Things have to change - me tally and physically.     We are out of sorts in every way so far.   Whew

Hopefully this Wojo team performance isn't a sign of a Wojo like late season collapse.

be embarrassed.

That I share an alma mater with you?  Definitely.

[Fred Garvin]

Looks like last years team,running all over chasing wide open 3 point shots,and going g down for opponents

[Johnny B]

be embarrassed.

i agree. most imoportant thing is bucky losing one game. why does anyone care if we win or not lol

[MuggsyB]

Lavin is such a brutal listen when your team is playing poorly

Touche.  Brutal may even be kind.

Morsell just needs to play less on the road.

Is it time to re-examine the strength and conditioning program if we fade down the stretch again this year?

[PGsHeroes32]

Daryl is off the court. No maybe we can have some team offense. Or at least one that runs through Justin.

[Dish]

I actually think MU will make a game out of this.

Seriously?

[Fred Garvin]

Bring Joplin in!!

[The Sultan]

Bring Joplin in!!

To make the defense worse?

Just dont see it.

As bad as the D has been. Weve actually gotten a good amount of stops the last 8 or so minutes.

The offense is horrendously rushed possession after possesion. They have it in their minds they need to chuck quick. When in reality if we ran real offense the last 3 possessions we are down like 13

[MuggsyB]

We're just not there mentally and that really hasn't happened for an entire half since St.B.  We went into panic mode for no reason known to man.  Move the basketball and take high percentage shots.

[MUEng92]

Upset in the Big Ten?  I wonder which game

Wojo's problems were two-fold. He was good at setting up a system he could win with, but bad at coming up with a backup plan once other teams figured out a way to stop them from doing what they wanted to do.

Second, he built teams with a key flaw that could be exploited by other teams.

It would seem that UCONN and Butler found a way to stop MU from doing what it wants to do. Let's see how they respond.

very mature of you. Not to mention passing judgement on someone you don't know. Incredible.

[GoldenDieners32]

Does anyone know if the badgers lost today? that would make me feel better about this game!

[Norm]

Seriously?

Yes. S&C play a huge part of every athletic program. IF, and I say IF, we fade again, part of that may be due to fatigue from the season. And we have faded down the stretch a lot recently. Maybe its something to see if we can do better there.
