They have now screwed UConn in two straight possessions and whenever UConn starts to make a run.

NCAA directive to screw uconn has now gotten down to the refs. wow this is so bad its almost comical.
 
Back breaking officiating, this game being called as if it's at Marquette. Feel bad for our guys in this game. Officiating plus another banked in 3 too hard to overcome.

Marquette is a lot better than we are. We're an NIT team.
 
Crowder absolutely runs AO off the ball -- nothing. Touch him, foul. Just a disgrace.
 
I can't see this team being better next year.. its not an experience thing.. its a effort thing

Marquette frankly sucks.

I don't know what that makes UConn, but I'd take Murray State over them.
 
Officiating, foul shots, NO inside play (other then alley oops), they out rebounded us (pathetic!), and in my mind bad coaching. All reasons I wanna throw my remote at the TV.
 
AO decides to get physical down low ( but loses the ball like every time!) on the last play of the game! this guy is playing better but come on. Guy has hands bigger then my head but drops the ball 99% of touches.

The horrendous, horrendous first half, combined with the bonehead technical foul and brutal officiating was too much to overcome. Also didn't like that again, they just gave up in this one at the 4 minute mark...yes, down by double digits, but the effort has to be 40 minutes
 
we have two absolute MONSTERS and a way bigger team but let them out rebound us and let their center score 29. They just wanted it more. UConn needs some serious leadership.
 
They are on the cusp of having to win the BE tournament to get into the NCAA tournament. They won't beat Cuse, and one slip up against Nova, Providence, or Pitt, and they don't belong with a losing conference record
 
Twice now that a team that plays with a small guard laden lineup is a matchup problem. They're able to take advantage of their edge, we aren't with ours.

Gottlieb, for all he is, summed it up well. Effort & leadership. While difficult to drum up leadership, there isn't much excuse on the effort end. For a team that played so well defensively last year, no excuse that they are this bad this year. It's so hard to have faith in a team that plays with no sense of urgency. Some of us in the Boatright camp may have been a little premature in thinking he was going to be the difference maker. Has played like a freshman the last few.
