Mc-did-it.

Need to raise the price of beer.  If you paid $15 for that sucker, you aren't chucking it at the opposing team.

I heard the Creighton fans threw things at the Marquette players as they left the floor after the game.   McDermott had to go into the MU locker room to apologize.  I guess they did the same thing to Villinova.  Evidently, the nicest fans in America only applies to Nebraska Football fans.  Creighton is becoming my most hated fan base in the Big East.

Most Creighton fans are pretty level headed in general.  But you have that group of 20-somethings that go to the games and spend more time drinking than watching the game and become complete morons when they lose.  But there is no doubt that they are the whiniest fan base in the Big East.

[4everwarriors]

Kolek 'em, hey?

[Dr. Blackheart]

Any reports of burning couches in Omahaville?

[The Thing]

OMax cost us at least 8 points with careless ball handling or bad footwork.

Completely agree. At one point I was wondering why Shaka was keeping him in. In my mind he was the worst MU rotation player by a wide margin last night. I also thought that flop of his that got the foul called was a joke. Still a great win.

No, but maybe Warren Buffet will be buying out McDermott's contract, hey?

Maybe so, but we should at least consider others for that award. Of course, Marquette is exempt.

Providence, Seton Hall (in the past), UCONN? Anyone else?

Add up the combined bench minutes and contributions.   Then  say 22-6.  You'll figure it out.

McDermott also started his press conference with some pretty strong comments on that.

I agree with this analysis.

[panda]

We're on an awesome run. We're finding ways to win close games - something we couldn't do earlier in the season. Players roles are defined and the fight never stops. The growth from an individual and team level is incredible. 

[willie warrior]

Shaka earned every cent MU pays him this season tonight alone.

Whatever Kolek is getting paid ain't enough

As Kolek would say, F#@k em.

Fantastic:

I still don't truly understand it...This Marquette team shouldn't be good. They overachieved a year ago and lost Morsell, Lewis, Elliot and Kurath. But now Marquette is going to win the Big East. They are going to be like a 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

It's all because Tyler Kolek is a gigantic pretty boy. I mean that as a compliment too. He doesn't give a crap about who he's playing or what Marquette was 'supposed' to be. More importantly he's at least a personality. We need more of this in college basketball. Tell the media to unnatural carnal knowledge off for voting you 9th. Talk about your gigantic balls. He deserves it at this point.

It sure didn't say "pretty boy".

True. Gotta love our 'Scoop filters.

What filters?   

[Marqevans]

I agree..feel like we got bailed out a little on the call on the inbound play to Kam...that was a pretty minor/tick-tack foul they called on Nembhard, and then it was possible an official could have called Kam for a foul on Scheireman's last second heave.  Brutal play there..gotta be smarter.

We had some dumb fouls/plays tonight, yet still won.

Nembard literally held Kam by the waist to prevent him from moving before the foul was called.

This ^^^^^^^

[Daniel]

Absolutely held around the waist interfering with his move to get the ball

[tower912]

There was a subtle play in last night's game that I don't recall seeing ever before.  I have been pondering the implications all day.
   When Creighton was in their zone, Oso got the ball a stride to the outside of the elbow.   No defender shifted toward him.  In fact, the Creighton defender on top nearest him was looking for cutters.  Kalkbrenner did not leave the middle. Low wing defender stayed with the corner shooter.
   I cannot remember a zone not shifting toward the ball.

Oso's going to be shooting a lot of 10-15 footers this off-season.

Oso's going to be shooting a lot of 10-15 footers this off-season.

We said that last offseason as well and he hasn't even brought out a beta version version of an elbow jumper.

I haven't seen this posted before, but this is the best angle on that last foul I have seen.

Anyone who says this isn't a foul is straight up delusional.
