Uconn is one shot and done on the offense end marquette is 2 or 3 shots and done the one time they are 1 and done is when they make the first shot

It's impossible to compete on the boards when your starting 4 has been on the bench since the 12 minute mark, and your starting 5 since the 8 minute mark or so.

They need to come out angry or go home.

Marquette is 27 points from icing this game, cause.there is no way this team scores 70. 17 might be enough.

Come on, though. They didn't quit against Syracuse. The issue they're having is that they have AO and AD in foul trouble. They're getting killed inside.

Boy where can I get the rose colored glasses your looking through? This team is pathetic, oper your eyes bro!?!? No Effort, no chemistry, no will at all

 

[jorge34]

It ain't the coaching.

They ARE lazy.

 

[uchusky32]

Man sounds ugly... glad i'm at my kids game. Don't tell my wife i'm checking in!

 

[high-post]

That Wolf-Olander experiment was a ducking disaster. The lead ballooned very rapidly.
Monday morning quarterbacking and all that, but that was a really terrible idea, especially considering the terrible offensive execution in the halfcourt to begin with.

 

[jorge34]

Gottlieb KILLING them, and rightfully so.

He is right, the effort is pathetic, and belongs in the NIT

 

[bobbygt]

It's gonna take a monumental comeback to win.

Marquette just looks like a much better team in every area.

What did I say that was wrong? Every game except Louisville they put up some fight. I'm right.

Does that mean that they haven't been terrible today? No.

"UConn is auditioning for the NIT."

-Gottlieb

He ain't wrong.

What a crap effort at home. Either that or we're just this bad.

 

[Jax Husky]

Announcers at halftime not very nice to the Huskies (nor should they be). Yet another national broadcast talking about the team's effort being "embarrassing". How many times will I have to hear that this year?

 

[SouthTampaBill]

Gottlieb said UConn's effort is embarrassing . He is right on the money.

But we're playing against a team without their centers for the entire game. No excuse for the lack of boxing out.

they are lazy and disinterested, no question about that. But Buzz is giving George a lesson in game prep. I don't care how long Blaney has been a coach, he's never won anything and he's never showed me that he cares much one way or the other.

I say give Ollie his shot and let's see what he can do.

 

[jorge34]

Start the half with the walkons on the court. Seriously.

Time to embarrass the hell out of this team, maybe that will wake them up. This game is gone, so why not try SOMETHING different.

I appreciate the outside-the-box thinking but man that is an absolutely terrible idea. "Let's get down 20!"

 

[HuskyFan32]

I can take bad play but they don't have any energy. We deserve to lose this game.

I'm with ya. The lack of effort and emotion and giving a crap is appalling. Is hard to even root for them when they play like his. I want them to win but I almost resent them

 

[sledog]

We saw the wall and hit it.

 

[SubbaBub]

Looks like we have a bunch of pick up players. No solid screens, no rebounding at either end and zero on man defending. Folding chairs guard better than these guys.

Same defense against Depaul but this team is not Depaul.

And for all those citing the Syracuse game, that was a 20 pt blow out once they reverted to the form we've been seeing all season.

Wolf shouldn't be in during the biggest game of the year and down almost 10! and especially with Olander! 3 for 4 minutes of that were down 20 no doubt. WTF was blaney thinking? I can see JC pulling his hair out watching that. Is it me or does blaney SUCK at putting the right men out their?.. I honestly think if he doesn't do that we weather the storm and stay close. Completely deflated our team that was so stupid.

It won't work, they just don't have enough pride to even be embarrassed. They'll just go home and play XBox later. It is sad to see how bad Marquette wants it, and then to see how little UConn does.

 

[Kitaman]

Why are we always seeming to shoot the ball with less than 6 secs on the clock? So frustrating (and boring) to watch.

 

[jorge34]

can live with mistakes, can live with lack of talent....NO excuse for lack of effort. NONE

I don't care if they go down 20 or 30. Start the second half with the walkons. Of course it won't happen....but too bad.

 

[Kurt]

Why the hell would you put Wolf in over Scoe............ terrible coaching.

Charlie Villanueva guards better than these guys!

And Gottlieb talking about how Blaney was worried about the team's energy is just plain sad. Sounds like Blaney saw this coming while Buzz was running practice at 7am. Blaney is a total joke, and the lack of effort definitely has something to do with him being on the sidelines.
