Awful. And some of those were front ends of 1and1's.

Maybe he threw it at the TV and broke it.

drop one to #5, take care of business against #7

could be worse
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

You know, like last year against Tennessee.

Fortunately, it’s not like we have a next day against Tennessee to worry about this year, this week, this today, like about 3 hours from now or anything.
So predictable.

Yes Q, we'd be better off if DH was as good as Steph Curry.

Watched the game. Tennessee played pretty much a normal game. Marquette does not.

Tennessee couldn’t buy a shot at the end there—not necessarily thanks to what we were doing—but that’s college basketball.

Was a good game to watch—you can see the talent—still sloppy AF.

Marquette no great shakes offensively either. Shaka seemed to base everything on overplay runouts and risky wrap around passes. It was good to get away from the tedious overplays. If you don't shoot 30 FTs, you are in trouble against the Shaka teams.

Bill worked the refs today too. The technical was good.

Purdue just beat them and shot 15 FTs, making 8.

Well, to be fair, Shaka DID play his Super Bowl last night.

Meh, all this crap is dismissive of other teams actually being talented. Dislike.

Marquette is talented. But play like Illinois State. The style of play is awful.

It's chaotic and hard to watch from a purist standpoint, that's for sure. Whipped us pretty good with it, though. Hopefully we learn for the next time that's employed by a coach against us.

I agree. They are a terrible draw in tournaments because they kill your legs even if you win. Reminds me of Ill St in 2007 that way

Players no doubt getting to enjoy Waikiki and other sites (possibly) this afternoon and tomorrow. I was wondering when they come back. Friday night?

These dudes are young and specimens of good health, so travel probably doesn't mess with them like it does those of us that are old and out of shape, but coming back East from Hawaii always sucks WAY worse than going out there.

Of course, for vacations, that might be caused by adrenaline getting there working through the West travel, and the bummer of the end of the fun coming back.
