Message: [QUOTE="GoDawgs4, post: 3344252, member: 8051"] Marquette shoots almost 50% from the field (twos and threes) out-rebounds State, is playing at Home, State shoots 35% from the field (25% from three point land). However, State shot 87% from the FT line on the road. That is impressive for a relatively young team. If Marquette was going to beat State, tonight should have been that opportunity to cash in but they did not. 28 turnovers by Marquette was another big issue for them as well. I see some of you on here love to criticize Coach Schaefer and the Dawgs and that is okay. You are entitled to your opinion. At the end of the game it was a big W for State. This team grew up some tonight and will continue to get better as the season moves along. They learned tonight how to scrap their way to a win on the road. It is easy to win when the shots are falling, not so much when you are throwing up clunkers. When shots are not falling you have to persevere and that is what the Dawgs did tonight. [/QUOTE]
