Rasslin' with the Red Storm

[muwarrior69]

9 of their points were on truly absurd shots.  They also hit at least 2-3 other deep 3s that I didn't mind them taking.

That 3 they hit to close the first half kind of set the tone.

Posh made a long 3 around the 1:15 mark after the defense locked them down for about :20-:25 or so.  It was that kind of day

What did TK say to Stanley???

Pardon me, but do you inhale or exhale on your follow through?

Lessons to learn from losing focus at the end.  I do think the subbing of Kennedy lead to a let down.  At least with Shaka I am confident it won't happen again--with players or coaches.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Getting a really good lesson when you still win is a nice combination. 

Even though he missed two at the end, TKO is the only guy I have confidence in at the line at the end of the game.  Although big credit to Oso as he's been nails in that situation in spite of his struggles this season.

Maybe the fans should have let Tyler focus instead of chanting MVP

The unwritten rule is if the other team is still fouling, dont put in the walkons

Did they cut down the nets after the game today?

[Vander Blue Man Group]

No

Thank God. You never know here.

[frozena pizza]

Definitely a lesson for us.  When you get up 10 with 29 seconds left assume the other team still has 6 more possessions.

[MU Fan in Connecticut]

STJ played out of their minds, got serious ref help, and had some crazy bullcrap plays at the end.  Marquette still won.

Bring on STJ in the first round, we will pound them.

11.  Jeez, St. John's was making lucky shots.  That 3 pointer at the end of the 1st half, couple quick 3s with less than 20seconds among the other things cited here.

They made some very lucky shots.  They also missed a lay up and a free throw in that last sequence.

TKo asked if he wanted a t shirt.

They had some really lucky shots - but we had two 3s that bounced high off the rim and went in - so they only had most of the good luck, not all of it

Yes. Can someone summarize what happens with Kolek and Stanley for those of us at the game?

Kolek said something to him at the line.  Typical trash talk stuff I'm sure

If it really is harder to beat a team the third time after beating them twice, Thursday's game is going to be REALLY difficult.

I never thought I'd see a contested half courter be the third unlikeliest shot a team hits.

strong COLE effort, does it come so effortlessly for you?

From the article...

So over a 10-year period in college basketball including almost 1,000 games, the team that won the first 2 games won the third meeting 72.4% of the time. So it clearly doesn't follow that it is hard to beat a team 3 times. In fact, it's actually kind of easy.

"Didn't know they grew em so small down on the farm". TK saying this made no sense but it worked
