No cigar

[tower912]

Saw the last 15 minutes.  That makes me an expert, right?
1.  Ben picking up his 3rd and 4th really seemed to negatively impact the game.  UConn bigs are too big for Royce the freshman. 
2.  MU guards kept getting downhill. UConn kept blocking their shots during that game changing run for UConn.
3.  Shaka needed that TO  earlier.
4.  Joplin and Kam show.  Needed a little more help.
5.  UConn at home is similar to SJU at home.  Aggressiveness is rewarded.
6.  Passion was there.  3 point shooting, alas, was not.
7. Zaide for Chase at crunch time.
8. UConn forced the switch. Split second of confusion.  Dagger.

0/16threes for players not named Joplin. Ridiculous

[wadesworld]

Ben having to go to the bench flipped the game.

Would've liked Chase in. More aggressive attacking.

[jesmu84]

1 and 2 directly related.

5 makes little sense to me. Marquette was very aggressive all game attacking the rim.

[Small Orange Soda]

0/19 threes for players not named Joplin. Ridiculous

Yup. Hard to win games that way.

[MUeng]

If not making threes, Marq just doesn't have the horses against a team like Uconn

[CountryRoads]

Can't fault the effort. Even in the last 30 seconds thought we had a chance to steal it.

[MuMark]

Can't shoot can't win.....sometimes it's a simple game.

At least scoop can't blame Jop for this one......

[HutchwasClutch]

Yup. Hard to win games that way.

0/16 actually for everyone but Joplin. Still atrocious

[TFlegend]

The iso ball offense is horrific.  The three point shooting is horrific.  The rebounding is horrific.  Other than that....good job, good effort.

On the bright side, Miletic had 37 in RM's Sectional Semifinal win over Stevenson.

Frustrating that his 3rd foul was a dumb one giving up and and one opportunity.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Proud of the way the guys played in a really difficult road environment.

If they played like this on NMD they win that game.

Anyone discouraged by this game going forward isn't paying attention.

The last time I remember seeing Chase in the game was when he was laying on his back grabbing his fingers and whincing.

Honestly, everyone's going to see the L, but we looked a lot better than many previous games. If we could have not given 172 offensive rebounds, we would
Have won

I wonder if Chase was banged up?  There was a play with 4-5 minutes left where three of our guys ended up on the floor (must have all just tripped or something) and he was clearly in pain while laying there.

Exactly

Right. It just makes the BET harder.

How many of those pts from mid range?

We will be a very tough out in march playing like this. They won't shoot this poorly again.

You realize the season isn't over right?

37 isn't divisible by 3.  We need someone who only makes 3's

[jesmu84]

That's what I thought after NC State

[fjm]

Right. It just makes the BET harder.

Playing Xavier won't be fun. But SJU is beatable. They just keep getting lucky in the last 1-2 min of games.
