Are we even going to get a fake comeback today?

Be surprised if they got it back to single digits.

I am currently on muscle relaxants and a sedative and somehow I am showing more life than this team

[Daniel]

I don't think Shaka has any answers in this one

Have to hit shots and work for the best ones.  We are not so far. And defense looks awful.  Slow and late

[jesmu84]

I'm not sure there's any answers or buttons to push today.

20 point loss seems inevitable.

We've been playing like a top 50 team for a while

[The Sultan]

This has been coming for a while, and probably needed.

Yeah. We had been getting by on beating bad teams the last couple of weeks.

[FairWeatherEagle]

At the end of the year this will be a decent Q2 win on Xavier's resume.

[PGsHeroes32]

We are gonna be like a 9 seed

We sadly just stink

[PointWarrior]

Embarrassing effort.  Turning it off.

With this effort - they will be lucky to go 3-4 in the next 7 games.

[1SE]

Brutal on both ends. Kam's worst game in quite a while. Really disappointing effort today. Give X credit. They've made MU look awful.

Unless we hear all the guys are battling flu or something, this is really concerning how terrible we're playing in every aspect of the game

[ATL MU Warrior]

We are completely incompetent today

[MuggsyB]

What in the F was that from Kam???

I don't think it's terrible playing.

I think opponents just figured everything out

Finally, after 4 years

[MuggsyB]

Jesus.  This is crazy. 

[JakeBarnes]

Did Shaka let them know that passing is actually a thing they can do?

Tunnel vision out there.

[MuggsyB]

26 points in about 25 mins of playing time.  Ridiculous. 

[mileskishnish72]

I am so sick of seeing outings dribble their asses off.

[Johnny B]

It's an absolute miracle if Marquette even gets a semi decent look on offense m. Credit to X making Marquette look like a high school team. I can't believe what I'm watching. This is impossibly bad play.

Weird that we dropped a total of zero spots in Kenpom from 12/7 to 1/7 then

[Jay Bee]

Obviously this team is too excited for the upcoming inauguration

We've done an unusually poor job in this regard.  Passing off the bounce.  You know Kam is going to be doubled.  Whether it be Jop, Stevie, or Chase they have to make better decisions and move the rock.

Figured out how to make MU take bad shots? Miss easy shots? Commit unforced turnovers? Brick open threes?
Xavier is playing well, but most of this (as with DePaul and Georgetown) is self-inflicted.

[jesmu84]

Finally, after 4 years

Gotta consider what this roster is capable of as well

[ATL MU Warrior]

If Kam is doubled, where is the open man and why are we not moving the ball to them?

Shutting down Kam, mostly. Forcing others to step up.
