Pretty iffy to me whether this team can beat DePaul on the road.

Bluiett should reconsider his choice for next year. The most careless team in history

Agreed. Too many lazy passes, by too many on the team.

Yup losing Sumner hurt because their offense is dependent on him breaking down his man and going to the basket or finding a man. Defense has been bad all year -and getting worse. Although Marquette started this half 14-16. Its mind boggling.

There is a very limited number of guys on this team who appear to be enjoying themselves playing out there. This will be a curious off season.

Well...the score is tied just for the 2H.
Guess those 2H adjustments have paid off.
I'm not sure X could come back even if Marquette walked off the court for the last 3 minutes.
Probably would still make a lazy pass and turn it over.

Can't take it anymore. TV is off. As much as I wanted them to win, the TO's and lack of defense is too much to bear. These guys look like a team in an entirely different league than Marquette. Almost MCC like. So sad to see a team with so much potential early in the season and to to see them have an epic meltdown this late in the season.

As much as I like Chris, and have known him since high school (was two years behind me at St. X) the dude just looks lost and it's not entirely his fault. The majority of this team just doesn't have Big East talent.

Maybe we need to have Kaiser Gates play PG.
Couple of nice dimes to Basketball Jones.

out of timeout and down 10 X waits till 12 seconds on shot clock to foul. Should have fouled as soon as they didn't get a steal then no foul at all.
