- I hate it when the officials dominate the ThoughtZ™, but this game was horribly officiated.
- Jackson's 3 stroke is ugly, but it's been going in of late.
- Akok was really into the game early. Active. Aggressive. But he started that way last game, then disappeared. Tonight, he made the most of his minute late as well as early.
- Sanogo came in and we lost all our rhythm. Tried too hard to force it in to him. Missed his first two shots, and gave up 2 consecutive lay-ins at the other end.
- 2nd time Adama came in, he was much more effective, just playing in the flow of the game.
- Late in the first half, the refs started calling everything in Marquette's favor. In the last 6 minutes of the half, they called 7 fouls on UConn, and none on Marquette. Plus they gave that after the shot clock basket to Marquette. We took 4 FTs in the first half. Marquette took 9.
- I'm becoming increasingly disillusioned with Hawkins.
- Martin reminds me more and more of senior year Donny every game.
- How was the foul at 11:23 on Whaley, not Lewis?
- Around the 10 minute mark, I started to get nervous.
- What exactly was that call at 4:30 about?
- Then Martin fakes a guy out of his shorts and is called for a foul when the guy fell on his ass. I think he got angry about it, because he became a man possessed after that.
- How was Cole's chuck it up while you're getting fouled shot in the last minute not an "and one"?
- Jackson lead us in rebounding. Again.
- Other than a couple relatively short lapses when we let them get back into it, we played well. Won both halves. Shot 50/30/88.9. Squeaked out a rebounding advantage and led assists and steals.
- I've been trying to pull for Gaffney. Every now and then there's a flash of promise there. Then he has two consecutive turnovers. Him being on the floor fairly late in a close game might've been why I got nervous mid-2nd half.
