Willie was right.  McDermott owns Shaka

Free throws could lose us some games.   Need to get on top of that.   Wow

Keep getting to the line ten more times than the other team and it won't

Yes.  In order to reach our ceiling we're going to have to win some close games.  To this point we've blown a lot of teams out and lost to three good teams in our close ones.  That's still a question mark for me.

Gotta make free throws,

[Uncle Rico]

Gotta make free throws,

Marquette made 9.  Creighton made 4.  Marquette made 6 3's.  Creighton made 3

Winning lots of games that way

Our scrubs are the worst, will lose us some games

They don't share the ball

I don't remember making a three on the 2nd half.  I thought we were very average offensively tonight with the exception of taking care of the.ball for most of the game.

I think Marquette played poorly tonight.  That's a good sign.

Yeah, all the coaches in this thread suck.

They shared it with Creighton

Agreed.

This many times over. MU kind of sucked tonight and they still blew out CU. That was refreshing.

So many possessions where it was just so frustrating to watch, whether poor shots, or lack of defense, or failure to grab a loose ball, etc. and they still won convincingly.

Can only get better!

Ding. Ding. Ding. O was bad in the 2d half. And we added to our lead. D will win. Creighton's o looked worse than Chicago State tonight. Be happy.

[MuggsyB]

I mean Kam, TyKo, and Jop were a combined 9-31 and we were 6-21 from distance.  To still essentially blow them out is pretty impressive.

Muggs you seen concerned, why?

Tonight was a good performance and result for MU.

Give us your energy for the next game, which is even bigger, on the road at the dunk

[Its DJOver]

Creighton is on a 4-2 run

Never go on a 2 week vacation again. This place is so much better with you here.

I'm a little concerned Dr.V because logic tells me we're going to have close games in the near future and the BEast is considerably down.  We've yet to see if we can execute in a nip and tuck game down the stretch.   Nova may get there but their body of work is likely not going to be all that impressive.  My take is we may need a top 3 in the BEast with minimum a win vs XU.  Obviously, getting UCONN would be enormous.

Ok I get it.
Muggsy you can't keep moving the goalposts though.
What I mean by that is that if MU were to somehow magically win the BE and get a 3 seed you can't consider this season a failure if they lose in the 6v3 game to get to the sweet 16.

Yes would it suck, sure. Would it be a bad season, absolutely not.
Have some overall context.
Doesn't mean complacency.
Just means that Shaka is on the right track and let's beat down Cooley and co
