Time for Shaka and Greg to Join Danny in ELITE 8

[LBP43]

First, Hope everyone has a Blessed Good Friday .
Rooting for BIG EAST to have 3 of Elite 8 and believe it will be done.

 

[Seton75]

Yes!!!

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Their paths will be much tougher but doable

 

[ShoreGold]

I would love to see all Big East teams in the Elite 8 and beyond!! Send a message to the "Committee" about their incompetence!

Rooting for Creighton but I think Tennessee wins.

Tennessee and barnes really tried to lose last weekend vs Texas...creighton big man has to win the paint battle

Rooting for Creighton but I think Tennessee wins.

Should be a great game to watch because of the contrasting styles.

Very interested to see how Tennessee handles Alexander and Kalkbrenner and how Creighton handles Knecht.

 

[sami]

Just need one of those classic 50% from 3 nights. 16-32 would be sweet.

 

[NYC Pirate]

Marquette looks impatient and tight. They need to relax down 8 under 12 minutes.

CMon Big East -- Relax and drive

CMon Big East -- Relax and drive

Its been a ridiculous half so far by Marquette.

 

[Piratz]

Marquette started this game ice cold shooting three’s and layups, jeez.

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

Just awful basketball by Marquette. Are they really gonna fall victim to this team that shouldn’t even be in the tournament? Pathetic.

 

[LBP43]

Have not seen Marquette look as bad -- but big break on end of half foul Which Joplin blows??????

 

[Merge]

Have not seen Marquette look as bad -- but big break on end of half foul

or maybe not... yikes.

 

[tpbtpb17]

Did he seriously just miss all three free throws? Wow. Marquette looks awful

 

[NYC Pirate]

I've never seen a good team so nervous in my life. Horrible job by the coaching staff.

 

[hbkmyr]

Never trust Marquette

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

What a douchebag, missing three straight free throws. Terrible representation of our conference. In all honesty, they were lucky to beat Colorado.

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

Hurley should come in and coach the rest of the game for shaka.

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

Their front court is giving them absolutely nothing today. Playing like boys on the big stage.

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Marquette lack of front court physicality really coming back to hurt them so far.

 

[pirate AI]

I mean this is pathetic. They can’t shoot pass or dribble. What is going on. And Nc state has done nothing this half. Really, really embarrassing.

 

[NYC Pirate]

Right now Joplin is playing an F game. Ighodaro is very close to an F game. Jones like D+, maybe a tad better. This is so hard to understand.

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

OMG FT

 

[Jerry1992]

Nc state wants it more. Marquette playing like just satisfied to make sweet 16. Better wake up real soon.

 

[Jerry1992]

Playing poorly but somehow still have a chance. Need to get a couple threes to drop.

 

[Powerful Pirates]

The 3pt shooting… horrendous

 

[hbkmyr]

The Marquette fans are quickly learning why Shaka was on his way out at UT

 

[shu09]

Would have preferred the Big East to win but not going to shed a tear for Marquette. Not a likable group of players and coach.

This is a silly post the team won a bid to the tournament

 

[TomD82]

Too many 3 point shots taken by MU.

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

Coming from you, I’ll take that as a compliment. There’s one cuckoo in every clock.

 

[Jerry1992]

I give NC State credit for great run over last eight games. They deserve it. However, Marquette played terrible on offense tonight. Could not shoot, rebound or pass. Go Creighton and Houston later.

 

[Seton75]

Nc state wants it more. Marquette playing like just satisfied to make sweet 16. Better wake up real soon.

3 for 26 from 3 is tough to overcome. They played hard enough but not good enough.

Agreed on shooting but NC State looked much quicker to get rebounds and loose balls. Either way. Disappointing performance

 

[DrummerJerry]

3-28 from 3point ain’t gonna get it done

I am a voice of reason, an objective non blue koolaid drinker.

The amount of BS presented on this board since selection sunday night has been insane really.
