He stayed the same but you’re starting to lose it.

Really smart play by Kolek to take that foul from Igodharo.

Is the InvescoQQQ commercial where the AI is crushing the guy's skull supposed to creep me out or convince me to invest in a tech index fund?

lol @ Painter whining for two straight possessions about the tiny amount of contact on Edey’s travel.

NC State is about to blow Marquette out of the building.

This is about as bad as I've seen Marquette shoot.

Can't believe the Gonzaga big just wasted a 3rd foul on Edey like that, give the dunk up

So stupid. Absolutely guaranteed dunk. Just frustration

Watching Purdue makes me irrationally angry.

It's hard to describe how awful Joplin and Oso have been, you have to actually see it to believe it.

Somehow Marquette isn't down 28.

Not counting out Marquette yet, they generated great shots in the first half versus WKU and couldn’t hit a shot, going down what 9 at the half? But they need to get going asap.

Matt Painter reminds me of the Tim Heidelberg special.

Did we break Ighodaro? Kid just doesn't seem like the same player lately.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Marquette played like they did vs UConnon the road. What happened to playing with ‘violence’?

 

[USNA90]

The only thing worse than Marquette’s horrible ball handling is their pathetic shooting. I could see it if they are taking rushed shots that are well defended, but they’re consistently missing wide open looks.

It’s like clockwork orange and they hold your eyes open with toothpicks.

Marquette with 31 points in 26 minutes. Yowza.

Marquette with 31 points in 26 minutes. Yowza.

against the #75 defensive team in the country.

The lackadaisical, half-a$%ed passing play after play by Marquette is as mystifying as it is maddening. What the hell is the matter with this team? Seriously throwing passes like they are out screwing around on a Saturday afternoon on the playground, not playing in a Sweet 16 game.

This team is a straight imposter of the Marquette team I have seen play.

At this point I feel bad for their fans. They didn't show up against Michigan St. last year, and they haven't showed up yet for this game, with 13 minutes remaining.

They can't even run a fast break... PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!

They are playing like they are on the same hallucinogenic drug or something... I mean, how many stupid, lackadaisical passes are you going to make? And how many 3's are you going to brick?

N.C. State has given then ample opportunity to get back in this game so far in this half, but they don't seem to give a crap. They are determined to play like a bunch of hacks.

Is this the same Marquette team I saw all season? Sloppy and not as active. NC State playing with more energy...

All their turnovers are unforced. Can't make threes, can't make ft's, can't make dunks, can't rebound, can't catch the ball.

It's hard to believe they're only down 11. Just as I'm trying this Kam jumps in the air and throws it into the crowd on a fast break.

Marquette has been playing brilliantly this half in NC State's half court, then simply blowing it when it's time for them to score.
