Fore!

1.  Shooting.   Wow.   MU got all of the looks we have come to expect them to make.    Sam....clang.   Markus....clang.   
2.  While Georgetown hit their shots.  Or got fouled.   The defense didn't seem bad.   Down the stretch, Ewing decided to isolate his guards and let them attack   It worked well.    Marquette's lack of team speed was exposed. 
3.   Turnovers weren't the problem.    Rebounding was an asset.   Except that last one.   So, no bitching about that.    All about the shooting.   
4.   I think the cumulative minutes played by Sam and Markus are coming home to roost.    The lack of a second lead guard really hurts.    Both look beat up.
5.   What is and isn't a foul confuses me.   An ounce of consistency would be nice 
6.   Those of you who wanted Markus to play less, congratulations.   
7.   Brendan Bailey had a game.   But know your place.   You are a catch and shoot guy.   Not a dribble from the wing to the top of the key and then fire up a 3 off the dribble guy. 
8.   Free throw shooting mattered today.    And efg% sure as hell did. 
9.   Marquette has now found 4 different ways to lose 4 straight games.     Today, it was a hot shooting team.   While Marquette was a cold shooting team.     There is going to be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth and rending of garments.    As it should be.    I don't think anyone can claim it isn't frustrating.    Only thing to do now is try to regroup and move on.

Brutal, absolutely brutal.

[MUfanatic45]

This team is a complete and total embarrassment.

An utter collapse on all levels.

[NickelDimer]

Seasons turned into a laugher. Very pathetic. Really can't think of another word

[Johnny B]

Wtf happened to this team. Reach a ten ranking then 4 straight losses to unranked teams. Insanely deflating. Just doesn't look like the same team at all

[Mike Deane's Seat Belt]

The right thing to do would be to donate our bid to a team that deserves it late in the season.   

This team belongs in the NIT at this point. 

Wojo just pissed away anything positive he has done so far this season.  We are back to a "lucky to be here " type of team once again

[Bad_Reporter]

What do you mean with #6?

Congratulations?

Do you think Markus was played well today?  How about the last 5 minutes of the game?

[Hards Alumni]

Can we stop pretending that Marcus Howard's wrist is okay?

[CTWarrior]

Brutal, absolutely brutal.

Actually played better on offense today.  Just missed a million shot we normally make, particularly Sam and Markus.  When Markus is not shooting well, those quick contested threes and wild forays into the lane look terrible.

FreethrowsdoMatta?

[connie]

The four different ways we have screwed the pooch here makes it even worse. It would be comical if it weren't so depressing.

[mugrack]

DePaul beat Georgetown by 32 points... hmm

[Jay Bee]

FreethrowsdoMatta?

Free throws were a big positive for us. eFG% reigns supreme.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Avoided this place like a plague until they pulled out a win, but doesn't look like that's gonna happen again this year.

Absolutely pitiful way to end the season, no excuses just god awful basketball by everyone at some point during the slide. What makes it worse is there was so much optimism throughout the entire season and it all got thrown away at the worst possible time.

[skianth16]

This team is lost. Wojo is lost. This season is now a mess.

I think by wrist you mean ego ?

[muwarrior69]

Our guys are getting mauled (blood anyone) and the officials don't call it.

[CTWarrior]

Can we stop pretending that Marcus Howard's wrist is okay?

If his wrist is not OK he should stop taking bad shots.  He has always taken bad shots but made a lot of them anyway, but the last few games his bad shots do not go in.

what the heck is wrong with markus. playing like absolute trash lately. can't remember a star play this pathetically for this long. look destined for one and done in both tournaments. what a buzzkill and pathetic way to end the season. someone needs to be held responsible, this program is a mess

[WarriorFan]

The absolutely arbitrary nature of the officiating should be viewed as an embarrassment to the Big East and the NCAA.  GT might have more complaints than MU, but I even lip read Markus saying to the ref "that's what he's doing to me so I thought I could do it".

[lawdog77]

Hopefully, the turnover issue is now fixed. If so, this team can still make some noise in the tourney. My prediction, Elite 8 if they keep turnovers in single digits.

[MarquetteDano]

Strange that our turnovers and offense did not cost us this one.

It was the defense today.

The program is hardly a mess. THe season is turning into one though.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Honestly, we played well overall. Controlled the boards, didn't turn it over, got a lot of open looks that didn't go down. Akinjo and McClung played out of their Fing minds, over half their shots had no business going in. If this wasn't the fourth in a four game losing streak I would chalk it up to bad luck and move on. 4 losses is a brutal way to end the season. Watch us win the next four in a row.
