OMG OMG OMG. INSANE

 

[ecasadoSBU]

Illinois with the turnovers. Marquette takes the lead on a steal and 1

Andre Curbelo was either drunk or had money on that game, maybe both. Worst I've ever seen a point guard play.

WHATTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!

That was insane! Would be apoplectic if I was an Illinois fan. What a collapse.

Big time race to lose that games. That was an exciting but brutal finish

 

[ecasadoSBU]

MARQUETTE WINS!

Marquette tried their best to lose, missed FTs will kill you almost every time.

 

[ASweet3781]

Wow horrible foul shooting but gritty ending… great win for big East even though best payer wants there for Illinois

One thing I hope to avoid is those long stretches of. It scoring that plagued Illinois tonight. Last year those killed us

BIGEAST!!!!!!!! Good start to the Gavitt games. How exciting.

Lets go PC!!!

That was ugly. One of those games where who wanted to give away the game more. I guess Illinois did.

 

[BugsyCT]

Wild finish. Marquette bricked 3 FTs at the end but still won! Nice win for the Big East.

 

[UCFan1513]

That officiating was AWFUL (in favor of Marquette). They basically handed them the game, and Marquette still almost blew it by making like 25% of their free throws in the last 5 minutes. Pretty sure on that game winning steal the kid kicked the ball too. Pretty bad. Great game though

What a win for Marquette!!! Lets go Big East.

I was not impressed at all with Curbelo tonight. I thought he was trying to do way too much and do everything by himself. Illinois did a ton of complaining and putting their heads down instead of hustling back on defense. Obviously they are a different team with Kofi, but that’s just my observation from this one game. Free throw shooting for Marquette was absolutely horrendous at the end of the game.

Wasn’t pretty at times but what a statement win for Shaka.

I thought he kicked the ball also.

If Marquette takes care of business in the OOC, I wouldn't care if they went 5-15 in the Big East. Just need everyone to do the business OOC.

The Illinois point guard reminded me of a former UConn guard. I wonder who?

 

[aburks41]

Big 10 lololol

 

[rollskies]

Watching Providence/Wisconsin right now. I totally forgot that former conference foe Chris Vogt transferred to Wisconsin.

Nate Watson is CARRYING Providence right now. Has 10 of their first 15 points about 12 minutes into the game.

Christmas wish list for Illini - a competent point guard
Marquette had no right winning that game but don't look a gift horse in the mouth
