St. John's / Marquette Game Thread

Shouldn't be a problem this time of day.

Go for it.

Prosper couple thunderous dunks early. St. John's wants to play fast, but Marquette is just better at that.

Marquette looks flat

14-0 St Johns run. Marquette missing shots. Kolby King with 8 points a career high in the first half of the biggest game of the year

It's early but the Johnnies have come to play today.

They are playing like a ranked team right now. Great basketball.

is that a red storm hitting marquette?

St john's could have been a bubble team with a decent coach.

 

[UCLJ0211]

Should have a significant home court advantage and playing with house money. Wouldn’t surprise me if they pull this one off.

 

[firstnline]

They are playing with confidence right now

 

[AzHusky]

St John's 14 to nothing run in the last 5 minutes

Marquette has a really good offense so St John's can't take their foot off the gas if they want to win this game

 

[jibsey]

Marquette playing very tight so far, careless

 

[auror]

Marquette just kinda jacking 3s lately.

 

[JakeTheDog]

Marquette ice cold right now. St Johns looking nice and relaxed. Where is Curbelo?

 

[prankster]

Bench points!

 

[temery]

St. John's bench has more points than Marquette.

Out with another concussion

Out with another concussion

He really needs to just get his degree and stop playing (a la Mamadou Diarra). It's not worth turning his brain to spaghetti. What is it, his 3rd or 4th concussion? Had 2 that I can remember at Illinois.

 

[husky429]

SJU with a better coach would definitely be tourney-bound. Plenty of talent and athleticism on this team, they just play like it's Rucker instead of D1 ball.

Concussion protocol

 

[YearoftheHusky]

This resembles the St John’s team that whooped us. They are breaking down the guards at will and getting to the hole or creating open looks for others. Very impressive first half.

 

[UCTitleTown]

I would not want to face St. John's. I hope they lose.

 

[UCTitleTown]

I take that back. An early Marquette exit could help solidify our NCAA Tournament seeding.

Marquette was panicking at the end. Hoisting up 3s. They looked young and drowning.
