Hoyas up on Marquette 17-11 with 11 to go first half. Marquette still looks shaky. Govan real quiet thus far...wish we had nabbed him.

As I typed that, he hit a three. Ha!

Question: anyone know exactly why Gtown blocks off large portions of quality seats behind each basket? They've been doing this for a few years. It's every game too. And for the record, there's plenty of people here...at least 10000 I'd say.

47-30 with 1:30 left in first half.

MU having a real tough start to their BE season.

 

[Bobbie Solo]

Govan gives Ellenson a completely unwarranted elbow and gets a flagrant. Ugly play to end the half. Gtown up 49-36.

Is Marquette the worst team in the Big East? (St. John's seems tied with them for that distinction.)

Marquette's guards are real bad.

 

[Bobbie Solo]

Marquette down 57-49. Gtown, as usual like in their OOC, letting teams quietly back into the game.

Looking at Marquette's OOC schedule, you can see their record is pretty inflated. We didn't beat Duke at their place by 20. I'm sure they'll wind up being pretty solid, but right now, they look pretty ordinary.

This second half is hard to watch. Georgetown keeps turning it over and Marquette can't make a shot.

Georgetown has a good chance to start 5-0 in conference. Would be huge considering their out of conference
