1.  When MU got defensive rebounds, they got stops.   When UConn got offensive rebounds, they scored.
2.  UConn did what they do.  They did not leave shooters.  They trusted their defenders and put Clingan in drop.
3.  MU missed so many lay ups.
4.  Stevie clearly playing one-armed.   Screw you, Oduro.
5.  But SO MUCH HEART from MU.
6.  The freshmen no longer look lost.  Gives me hope.
7.  I wanted more Ben against Nova.  I wanted more Jop tonight.   
8.  It took a while, but finally the mystery shooter revealed himself.
9.  Oso finished the game on the bench because he was limping up the floor.
10. No complaints.   MU gave everything they had.  No Kolek, limited Stevie, hostile crowd.  When UConn started hitting 3's, goodnight, and thanks for playing.
11. Congratulations to UConn.  Great team.   Well earned.

Time to make the second weekend for the first time in a decade. Let's dance.

Very proud of the way the team fought over the last 2 weeks without our all american PG. Now it's go time.

Well at least now the "what if we had Kolek" and the "played with heart" portion of our season is over.  And now results really matter...

Rest up and get as healthy as possible, boys.

Who the hell knows. Maybe there's a conservation don't play Tyler unless needed vs the 15 seed

Uncle Rico

UConn has spurtability.  You can hang with them but they're as explosive as any team in the nation.  You'll have to match them offensively.

They're my pick to win it all.  Best offense in the nation.  Good enough defense.

Thought Marquette did the best they could but had to rely too much on UConn missing. 

Learned a lot about Marquette this past week.  Heart and determination.  Proud to be a fan of this team.  Handled Kolek right.  Love their chances the rest of the month.  Been a joy to watch them

Proud of MU for them to play as well as they did.

UConn is really good and fun to watch.

And after the lost years of Wojo, it's been really cool to be in back to back BET finals.

Seemed like an impossible task to get to this point under any of the previous coaches (know that the format was different but still). We'll be back here. On to bigger things. 

Herman Cain

Excellent effort on Defense

Offense needed to be solid but U Conn D was very smart

Was a worthy BET Final for most of the game

MU has had at least one guard out of commission since Stevie popped his hamstring.  Often 2.  Not sure Sean makes a difference tonight.

Zog from Margo

Proud of the team. UConn is better. MU has little chance without Kolek and not a great chance with him. Tonight, UConn just needed to take out Kam.

It'll be interesting to see if Kolek is back and, if so, how they play with him back.

NickelDimer

The fact this shorthanded team made the BET finals and battled as hard as they did with clearly the best team in the country is pretty awesome. This team with Kolek back is capable of doing something special

I'll quibble with this.  They may not win the game, but Sean is a primary ball handler and having him alleviates stress on Kam and Stevie.  They were basically down 2 1/2 guards tonight. 

Good news?  Tre wasn't great but those minutes will help with his maturity as a player

Any other game, Sean is useful. But a 5'7" non shooter against a 7'2" baboon? Nah

MUJunkie

This game was lost when MU didn't take advantage of an awful start by UConn. Could have pounced early but had nothing.

DegenerateDish

Good effort, proud of MU this week. This game will be forgotten about by 5pm CST tomorrow, and let the postseason begin.

Didn't know Sean would be guarding Clingan. 

Sean absolutely would have helped without TKO available.
