Marquette vs Georgetown

[NCMUFan]

How are people feeling about our first conference game against Georgetown?

[Shooter McGavin]

I think I'm watching for development. That includes beating Georgetown at home. Looking incompetent again would be frustrating to see.  Want to see improvement.

[Biggie Clausen]

I predict that after we beat a dreadful Georgetown team, Reeker will come out of his hidey hole, eager to give us all a pack of gum, but not before he shows us how to chew it.

The poll is dumb, but anyway...

Them missing Iwuchukwu is big, however, 4 of their starters are better than their MU counterparts.  This one is going to be tighter than we'd prefer.

[Shooter McGavin]

Tighter?  I'd be ecstatic with a one point win or even a loss where they don't look foolish.   Looking competent against a high major team (a low bar) would be a pleasure to watch.  Does anyone seriously think MU can win going away?

Fair.  I'm not sure I'd be in the ecstatic camp, but at least it would reassure me that we're not terribly worse than I think...

I just hope everyone has a good time

[Captain Quette]

Hoping for hugs, milk shakes, and improving relationships. Final score, no matta.

Thank you for taking the time to read, vote and comment.

We need to win. Period.

Our record is 0-0 again. Nobody is happy about the non-con part of our season but we get kind of a "do-over" beginning tomorrow night.

Here's hoping!

Well GT is a team that's nowhere near the top of the BE.  They are mediocre at best...

That said, until we see any evidence of improvement, I presume MU will lose.

Wrong. He us not capable of chewing gum. He is still trying to figure out how he totally misjudged the widening gap, and how he can take credit for this monumental misjudgement

[Billy Hoyle]

a blow for Gtown. End of the semester so I wonder if the real reason is he would have been ineligible. He was averaging 5.2 ppg for them.

He's been a DNP their past 3 games.

According to torvik our second easiest game left.

Lose this one and bottom of BE is even more likely, and 0-20 isn't beyond the realm of possibility.

But maybe tonight is the start of the greatest comeback since JC.

The only other "guaranteed" win might not happen until March!

Why? What's happening tonight?

So if you watch the game live, will you be watching it, "yesterday"?

He's still on the team but has been on leave for over a week.

[CountryRoads]

MU opens as 3.5 point favorites. Should be one ugly game.
