Super happy for Dawson.  🙃👊

Good for Dawson.  Wolverines losing makes me happy.

This is the basketball gods' retribution for the belligerent Michigan fan who came onto John Fanta's Twitter space yesterday and did nothing but insult the Big East 😂

That was from a long distance. Almost 1 ft. per each year old he must be by now.

agreed on both

Big balls shot. That was awesome

That's probably exactly what would've happened to Marquette had they not called the goaltend on Benny. Take no win, especially on the road, for granted!

Penny agrees.

You got dat right. I said at the time that I didn't mind the GT call being upheld. Saved us from losing on some miracle 3.

Well

Better to win by 2 at DePaul, than lose at the buzzer to Minny

MU lost @ DePaul

Interesting stat I found. Oregon currently has the second most Q1 wins with an 8-1 Q1 record.

Their scoring margin in those games? +8. If USC drops from 73 to 75 in NET, it goes to 7-1 in Q1 games and a scoring margin of 0

Three ranked teams were on the road against unranked teams last night. All three lost.

I wish Marquette had beaten DePaul handily. It would have helped our NET and kept me from having a few mild heart attacks. But I'll take the win, thank you. Beats the hell out of the alternative - such as losing to a really bad team on a 40-footer at the buzzer.

How I avoided needing to be rushed to ER during the DePaul game is a mystery. I'm typically able to handle watching the end of a game with the realization that we might lose, but this one was an exception. I was "appauled".

Temple fans stormed the court after taking down #18 Memphis. Poor Penney. Poor, poor Penney.

MU didn't beat DePaul

True, but we stormed their court anyway.

When do we hang the banner?

Oh my goodness.

Green Bay lead 27-10

They have started the second half on a 28-0 run(in the wrong direction as youor graphic shows) and havent scored in the first 10.5 minutes

This will hurt MU's NET

Yikes sounds like Golden has a staff of predators

But the content for Gottlieb's pod will be money.

Hearing Cronin complain about seeing the Statue of Liberty twice in three weeks and  Iowa getting to enjoy 70 degree weather is "chef's kiss". Apparently, the people at UCLA didn't look at a map before joining the Big Ten.  I have negative sympathy for him... meaning hearing his complaints makes me happy.

I'm not trying to defend Cronin, but if it were up to the coaches employed by UCLA, I highly doubt a single one would have signed off on moving to the Big 18.

He's a crybaby, but on this, he's right.  I'm also guessing he's paving the way for himself to leave

Don't get me wrong, he's absolutely correct.  And it was completely obvious before UCLA joined the Big Ten that this would be the case, but the money was more important to them than anything else, including their own people.
