MU/UW Game Thread

[HowardsWorld]

3 pt defense is clearly an issue. Gave up a ton to Purdue, then southern and now Wisconsin. It's a trend and it needs to be fixed fast.

[BLWarrior91]

Clearly Shaka is a closet Badgers fan.  How else do we explain this?

[mileskishnish72]

Gotta ramp up the D to get back in this one.

[MuggsyB]

Beyond maddening.  Give them credit but I don't understand what we're doing out there.  How on earth do you leave Klesmit wide open?  46 points for them??  21 for Klesmit??  And where the hell are Tyko and Oso?? 

[mugrad_89]

Big shot from Kam - I'm expecting a much better effort in the second half.

[Daniel]

Need to hit coming out in half two and crank up the D.   Man rebounding and free throws wow...

[PointWarrior]

Identical shooting percentage (poor) and down by 14 at half ?

Poor hustle, poor effort, poor shooting, poor coaching...

All Bucky has to do in 2nd half is play slow and trade baskets

I predict MU wins the second half by 5 to lose by 9....  taking the luster off the season start....

[TreeGhost]

Pretty embarrassing today

UW was up for this game!

MU came out too confident that they were superior.

UW is throwing MU into Lake Superior!

[wisblue]

Klesmit taking up where Hepburn left off last year.

Completely embarrassing effort from MU.

[TreeGhost]

Good thing MU is not in the Big 10 ...

[GB Warrior]

Send Al out there to rough Klesmit out in the opening minutes

[Cream Biggums]

Jop has to ride the pine for the 2nd half, get Lowery in there

[MuggsyB]

Oso wants to play in the Big Boy league?  1pt, 1 reb, 3 turnovers.  Where is he??  And Jop is driving me crazy as well.  19 free throws for them as Klesmit is the story.  Frankly the rest of their guys haven't done a whole lot. 

[TreeGhost]

Come on, Bucks!

Draft Klesmitt now!

He's better than Dame Lillard! 

Klesmitt shoots as well and plays with better effort!

[forgetful]

Can sum this up pretty easily.

1. They outplayed us.
2. We are playing their game instead of our game.

[nyg]

Fouls MU 12. UW 11, but UW 17 for 19 from line, MU 9 for 12.

Sean Jones not a good day.  Miss two wide open threes and then made 3 over zealous fouls resulting in six UW points.  He is now 2 for 18 from three on year.

Joplin, 0 for 5 from three.  MU don't hit threes, they are in trouble.  Ross two fouls kept Joplin in game.

Oso has one point, two rebounds and three turnovers.

The real ballbuster is rebounds where UW has a 22 to 10 edge

Credit to UW, played great defense, bounding and Klesmit is unconscious. 

[MarquetteMike1977]

22 Rebounds to 10 Rebounds!!
Go Marquette We Are Marquette!!

[MUEng92]

Let's hope that wasn't the good half

[NotAnAlum]

Really getting tired of the script.   They always seem ready to play us.  We always seem completely confused by them.  On defense get up on them, make it difficult to pass.  On O where is our highly efficient PaR.  Our guys look like none of them are ready for the pass.
I understand losing on the road but should not be getting blown out

They do a decent job of using their lower body to move us off our spots.

[NolongerWarriors]

Sean Jones is a mid-major talent level player, and so is Joplin.

[wisblue]

It took the Badgers until the last minute to score 46 points against Providence.

If MU keeps fouling they could reach 100 today.

[mileskishnish72]

It's hard to speed up play when you can't get a rebound and each possession seems to start with taking the ball OOB after a a make.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Let's F*cking Go.

[mugrad_89]

Nice run to open the second half.  Gotta keep up the pressure.
