#6 is spot on, especially regarding Sean Jones.  Shaka played him far too much today.  He makes some flashly plays on offense but he is routinely out of position on D and really struggles with decision making on offense.

Stevie needs to play as many minutes as he can handle and Chase needs to stay out of foul trouble.

I kind of care, basically my whole family (who all live in the Milwaukee area) are Badger fans, so I pretty much have to watch with them, and now when I’m invested in the team we have to lose every year to the critters.

If they're still bringing it up in three months it means you've won.

So Wojo is the last Marquette coach to beat Wisconsin. After that performance I am almost, almost missing the guy.

This team isn’t tough. They’re really good - but very soft. Never respond after a punch in the mouth

So you slept through the Illinois, UCLA, and Purdue games?

They responded against UCLA, Kansas, Purdue, Illinois.    This team is tough.  This team is small.   And their lack of size was exposed.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

We're going to win a national championship, this isn't really a big deal.

Brook Lopez would be a great fit on this team.

I think the team is incredibly tough, but when they are checked out, they are brutal and soft. Hopefully they raise both the effort and the consistency as the year progresses. They clearly have what it takes, they have to be in the fight as we are told

Awful game.  No one showed up aside from Kam. 

Getting punched in the face isn't a bad thing, it just sucks it was against WI. 

Confident the team will respond against Texas and in conference play.

Shaka not being able to win this rivalry is becoming an issue for me.

Why? Shaka always routes for his hometown college basketball team. He is a Madison guy all the way. Shaka is UWs trojan coach.

Brew …. Come ON !

You’re gonna mention a NC after that ?

I’m w / 5 dollar…. Going 0 - 3 v UW is a serious issue.  Getting trounced makes it worse

Yes. Because it's true. On April 8, the only thing Wisconsin will have over us is multiple angles to watch us cut nets because they'll be doing it from their couch.

Rebounding was the killer, along with Klesmit first half.  Just too many bigs on UW. Gold didn't play much because he is too slow for their bigs and all he did was foul them as they drived. Rafferty even mentioned it twice.

MU had 23. UW had 38.  7 to 15 on offensive, but UW was +16 on putbacks. Sixteen points off offensive rebounds. Ballgame.
Same with Purdue game, that putback by Edey was the dagger.

Joplin and Sean Jones going 1 for 12 from three didn't help either. 

Many scoopers have said five MU players will be in NBA, didn't show that today.  Bring on Texas who is a lot better than UW.

The pre-game meal of Mackinac Island fudge should not be served ever again.
