UConn game thread

[MUEng92]

Ben Gold sits in first class on the flight home.  The rest take a bus.  He's the only one giving a full effort on both ends

[Viper]

The good news is Ben Gold is playing his best game.  The bad news is Ben Gold is the only competent offensive player wearing a light blue uniform on the court so far

I'll take the ass kicking for a Ben Gold breakout that pays off from here

Imagine being so oblivious to reality that you thought this season was different.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😆😆😆😆

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Unreal.

[MUEng92]

Was there even a marginal chance that heave wouldn't go in? No, the answer is no there wasn't

[MuggsyB]

Man....that really hurt.  Fk. 

[IL Warrior]

Fitting end to that bullshit half.

[Dish]

Yup.

[mugrad_89]

Are you fucking kidding me?

[JakeBarnes]

Plz turn off the Game Genie

[tower912]

The trolls are out in force.    Whatever.    They are right until MU proves them wrong. 

[willie warrior]

Put in the 7-footers

Need some

[21Jumpstreet]

Damn, of course that goes in. Honestly, the boys stepped it up just missed some big, wide open threes. Kolek playing with some energy, Ben and Stevie brought it. We may not win, but we will claw back a bit

Let's see what's in the liquor cabinet...

Agreed - we're close to making this a game.

[Norm]

Not going to win many games when Prosper, Ighodaro and Joplin don't make a single field goal in the first half.

[wadesworld]

Need to hit some perimeter jumpers tonight and going forward.

[nyg]

If Jop and Kam are going to 0'fer there will be no comeback

Everyone but Gold ofer.... 2 for 12 threes.  Difference in game, along by two buzzer beater threes by UConn. On first possession and last, and that's 6 crazy, lucky points.

Finally one of you Scoopers who realized the truth.  Marquette is who we thought they are until they prove they aren't.   So far they are falling into all the old patterns.  Anyone who expects the outcome to be different is just being blindly hopeful.

Trying to put myself in the shoes of someone who posts on a college basketball message board only to troll when the team is playing poorly. It's hard to fully wrap the mind around it. One thing I'm sure about: your life is deeply sad.

[Elonsmusk]

Imagine being stupid enough to think the last decade will have any relevance to what will happen in February 2023.

I agree with this analysis.

As for the game - Fitting end the half. This is us versus Baylor where everything is going nearly perfect for UCONN.

Great to see Ben Gold make an impact. Oso lack of outside shooting really challenging us as teams are dropping off him at the elbow and just quick first step doesn't matter as the defender has enough cushion.

Need OMax to get out of his funk.

You can't prove something wrong when one loss = fade or whatever garbage they're peddling.  Marquette could have won tonight and Saturday but lost to X and it'd be the same BS.

You don't get the nations best offense or one of the best by smoke and mirrors or being the same old team.  It's lazy and stupid sports fan Joe Beer Gut trash

[Goose]

Cut it to 10 by ten minute mark and see what happens. Win some battles early and get a little run to start the half. Like the St. John's game, we should be down 25+ at half

Dumb post.
