Apparently Val Ackerman is in the house tonight.
watching pre-game warmups, is anyone having as much fun this year as Wally Ellenson? The guy isn't always 'just' smiling, he always looks like he is having the absolute greatest time ever.
Nice of the students to show up. Best student section my ass.
Early on in the world of stats....
Points in the paint: MU 14-2. (All of MU's points are in paint)
MU up on the glass 7-4.
6 of MU's 7 shots have been assisted.
MU has already forced 3 turnovers, a great start!
Great start. Couldn't make it to the game because I'm sick in bed. So, while watching on TV, I can see you every other possession IWB. Do people still want to ship out JJJ? He's playing great.
Misix stat of the game - pulled it down too early, but was something like, "In 6 of 9 of Xavier's losses, the Muskateers have shot 38% from three. MU holds teams to 34.3% at home this season."
Not accurate, but along those lines.
11:06 stat mark - MU up 16-10
Points in paint: MU up 16-4
Rebounds: MU 7-5
Turnovers: Xavier 5, MU 3 (2 are team turnovers)
Mu currently shooting 57.1% from field, Xavier at 40%
Yes - Xavier should be a big game regardless of record. Go to the games. As a student, its just what you do. It is a social night out. Get a hipper and head to the game!
at the 7:39 mark, the stat factors are starting to change and is reflected in the score....
MU up 16-14
Points in paint: MU up 16-4
Rebounds: MU 10-9
Turnovers: Xavier 5, MU 4 (2 are team turnovers)
Mu currently shooting 47.1% from field, Xavier at 33.3%, but 50% from 3pt
Watching from afar, student section is beyond embarrassing.
We just cannot afford these extended offensive droughts.
There is a player on Xavier's bench that, when Xavier is on defense, constantly barks. Yes, barks. Freaking crazy. Non stop. Two teammates noticed me laughing, they started laughing, the guy stops, looks at me, laughs, and continues barking.
How the hell does a senior PG just pick up his dribble that often?
From that last angle on TV the entire upper bowl looked empty.
And now a 21-6 run by X. Dang we are offensively challenged.
Upper bowl? Up until 10 mins into the game the entire lower bowl on the side behind the band was completely empty.
Nice final shot for Juan.
Been contending for years that the announcer is misreading card: it's the best student section in the COUNTY
We really need a point guard.....I know we have other problems but never again can we get stuck with a role player playing the whole game because we have nobody else who is better.
Sandy has hit a rough patch.......2 3s that go in and out along with a couple of bad turnovers.
Reported 15,000+ tonight, does not look like it. NBA size arenas are great when team is good to very good, will look bad at times when the team is bad, as we see this year for weeknight games.
Sandy just going through freshman slump. He just needed to keep playing hard and taking open shots
I heard several comments about the students at halftime. I even went to the student section and asked the kid in the first row.
IWB: "where are the students, do you guys have break or something?"
Student: "No, a lot of people have class."
IWB: "That's weak."
Student's friend: Looks at student with a look of disgust and says, "That is weak."
A look at the same stats from the first half.....
The stat factors are starting to change and is reflected in the score....
Xavier up 28-25
Points in paint: MU up 18-12
Rebounds: XU 16-14
Turnovers: Xavier 7, MU 7 (2 are team turnovers)
MU shooting 40.7% from field, Xavier at 42.3%, but 50% from 3pt
Thbis looks like it is going to get ugly.....
Just turned the game on and another bad call resulting in a technical.
Man, that's a quick trigger on Wojo. Mack has been super demonstrative too.
Wojo gets his first T, Juan restrains him. He had been asking for one all year, finally gets one from Eades? Was it Eades that called that?
Stainbrook looks around like he didn't foul?
I think we have another run in us.
Watching the replay, there is no way the ref was in position to see a foul of Fisher. To compound it with the t is, unfortunately, just another day in the Big East
Val Ackerman is a handsome woman.
The returning players need to live in the weight room during the offseason...getting killed underneath.
I asked someone earlier today if Wojo could afford to try to sign Anim and not sign a JUCO player(s) by going with the current group of guards. I think I have my answer. Need Anim, a point guard and another player who can give you some offense and toughness.
If people ever doubted we played 4 vs 5 on the offensive end bc of derrick, going against this 1-3-1 defense really magnifies it.
There are no options.
