Watching the game, it didn't seem to me that Clingan got away with any real fouls. But it also didn't seem like he was put in a position where he usually made a dumb foul. And with some time to reflect on this annihilation, I'm confused as to why Shaka didn't have his guards go at DC more often to draw fouls. Seems every other coach does and it's been fairly successful.
It’s crazy that we really haven’t had everyone click in the same game. Two players are off and we still win by 30. We probably need 3-4 players to have a bad game at once, if everyone’s on it’s over
What the Marquette Message Boards are feeling.
I didnt say it was the best team but i think its the best regular season team. Sure its a weaker Big East especially compared to the old BE but the fact that they are dominating the conference by nearly 20ppg and are only recently playing at full strength makes up for it a bit. This team has answers everywhere and DC had easily his best game of the season and for the first time looked comfortable on the block offensively. If he continues to get better and the scoring and rebounding start trending in the 15/10/4 range i dont know how you beat this team. We`ve seen them have an answer for everything thrown at them.
Who was better? Only reason we lost at Kansas was because Castle didn't play and Cam played on one leg. Seton Hall was bizarre but I still think we win that had Clingan not gotten hurt and knocked out of the game. We've rolled over everyone else despite injuries to Clingan, Castle, and AK.
I apologize. In my alternative universe we also won the national title, fingers crossed this wasn't also a hallucination.
Our best (BE & AAC) regular season was 17-1 in 1995-1996. What made that very special was how good the remainder of the top of the conference was (Georgetown & Nova spent most of the year in the top ten, a lot in the top five, Cuse made it to the national title game). I will say that this team may be the furthest ahead of the rest of the conference since way back when in the years we dominated the Yankee conference, but that doesn't necessarily make this our best regular season team ever.
I dont usually check other teams boards but i took a look. Most comments stated the obvious that Uconn is the best team end of story. But i found this little nugget and got a good laugh as this person clearly does not watch any of our games and the last one is comedy gold.
I still think the 04` team is still our best team but they didnt have the best regular season. This team has been better. So agree with you there.

You keep saying this, but it's not true. The fact that the middle teams all beat each other doesn't mean they're not good. We'll have 5 teams in and likely 6
If Hurley leads this team to another title we for sure will have to pay up because there are others that are willing and able to. Kentucky would back up a row brinks trucks on his front lawn.
