Horrible job by Oso rebounding today.  Cost him with 2 cheap fouls.  Time for Gold and/or Jop to step up.

[NickelDimer]

Oso needs to start pulling these drebs down

[Fred Garvin]

Our guards need to crash the boards more,can't stand around and wait for Oso.

He's getting manhandled - other guys have to help out.

Do not get why Shaka keeps going to Joplin.  Gold had 2 good blocks and should have been the sub for Oso.

Again, CATCH THE BALL!!!  Jop should have snagged that.

Yeah I don't know how anyone can watch Oso this game and criticize.  He's our only meaningful big and he's been everywhere.  Sure it would be nice if he had secured a couple of those, but this game is going at an insane pace and Oso is always dealing with someone bigger.

Muggs, little known fact, you are not required to post every single thought that comes into your head.

[GoldenEagles03]

Kam with 10 points and 4 assists so far.  Kolek with 10 points and 2 assists so far.

What a start for them.

[Elonsmusk]

Gonna need to get Kolek some rest..kid is playing his ass off and we will need him to have some freshness down the stretch.

[GB Warrior]

Need Stevie, Prosper and Jop to help crash. A couple of moments they've gotten caught watching the boards

[PointWarrior]

Do Marquette players realize that the other team is also trying to rebound the ball too....  go get it, they seem to want the ball to come to them...

[MuggsyB]

Vitally important stretch here.  Oso cannot get his 3rd in the 1st half but he may need to play to close.

OTOH, seems we need the starters to play about 38 minutes each to win this.

[Amal Sh00k Up]

It will be interesting to see how much more OMax-centric we will be in the 2nd half.  His athleticism should be causing more problems.  In Shaka we trust!

[TSmith34, Inc.]

I'm ok giving Boum 16-foot step backs

[MuggsyB]

Attack this team every fking time down the floor!!  Vengeance!!  Medieval thrashing!!

[willie warrior]

Can't let Xavier score

Thanks Capt. Obvious

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Thanks Capt. Obvious

Once more, the joke whooshes over wee willie's head

[MUBurrow]

Game slowing down noticeably these last few minutes and some ugly shots.  Tired legs.

[MuggsyB]

Was that foul on O-Max?

[willie warrior]

Sure as hell forgot to block out and rebound so far.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Truly can't stand Kunkel

[Daniel]

Driving to the hoop a lot can tire the legs but Kolek has been very successful doing it.   Need to draw more fouls on x.   Goo Marquette!

[NickelDimer]

Just can't get that PnR without Oso on the floor
