Marquette game thread

Anyone else find it interesting that Marquette has only committed 4 fouls in the entire game while UC has 7 fouls in 6 minutes of the second half?

Here we go Bearcats!!!! Nice finish by IT and great job by Gates on both ends of the floor.

While I do find it interesting, I would attribute it more to the fact that Marquette has no defense than us getting jobbed by the refs. For clarity though, both might be happening.

I love seeing the Bearcats switch up the defense. I would definitely like to see more zone as this game goes on. It is giving Marquette fits.

The reason I find it odd is that we have been utilizing the post and getting points in the paint the entire game. Marquette has basically been a jump shooting team. Usually you don't see the jump shooting team drawing so many fouls. Seems backwards. Either way, the Bearcats are playing tough.

i don't know which irritates me more, the commentator or the fact that every single Marquette player that shoots around the basket growls and screams 'And 1' after they shoot?

They blew that whistle the second Butler touched the ball. Ridiculous. He's going to the line way too much.

Shooting 16 free throws good freakin lord.


Anyone know what the rebound totals are?

Yeah, good point. There have been several calls where guys on UC are looking around like, "Me?"

 

[JasonS]

Butler screams every time he touches the ball anywhere within 10 feet of the basket.

Finish!

 

[JasonS]

What an AWFUL call on Thomas. He was being shoved from behind as he was trying to set the screen and the ref furthest from the play makes the call while looking through about 4 bodies. Unbelievable.

 

[swg]

Go inside. Make good passes.

A 3 by Wilks (a 25% percent shooter from there) not what I was looking for. Damn.

 

[JasonS]

Ugh. Wilks. I hate when he shoots from 3.

 

[adrock]

Win!

 

[nparker1]

'AND WON!!!!'

 

[david aka the TYZ]

That has to clinch it for us, we are going dancing my friends!!! Great win!!

 

[JasonS]

2 HUGE Free Throws by Yancy!! 11 Points and 9 Boards plus a big block late. He's been very good lately!

 

[JasonS]

Great road win by the Bearcats!! Buzz Williams is now 0-3 on senior night as the head coach of Marquette.

winning is better than losing.
