[Larry Wright]

Double OT would be nice

@mjmaherjr counting on you for info if we go to Providence for round one!

There will be a party

I'm afraid of UCONN. They've been here many times before. As far as Marquette...with the right matchup, they could be sweet 16. St Johns conditioning is off the charts. It seemed like Marquette couldn't wait to get out of there, they were so overmatched.

Hey, I don't want to take too much credit for this win, but when SJU was down 15 I went and put on my old tattered and too tight redmen sweatshirt and the rest is history . By the way it is undefeated this year

I'll be there to celebrate.

Rick made him the player that he is.

After he visited and practiced. Pitno signed him and said” I’m not letting you leave until you sigh.
Rick knew all along the potential!
Also at the end of last year he was showing signs of being a good player.,

I just remembered how much I hate watching Creighton play. Mr Head Snap is as annoying as it gets.

 

[sirvoo]

They came out thumping their chests, nodding their heads, clapping their hands the first 7-8 minutes…then we just beat the piss out of them out scoring 70-39!

Ever since that doofus Gold clapped his hands and screamed in Zuby’s face last week, he’s done nothing but score a buzzer beating game winner and then drop 33 points to Gold’s ZERO points. Word to the wise don’t piss this young man off!!!

 

[dk423]

This team is legit, as everyone knows. Thankful Scott is okay.

Not afraid of either opponent

 

[ras]

Kudos to our strength and conditioning staff, these guys are obviously physical monsters and never tire.

Zuby played 35 minutes . A lot for a big man and doesnt even look tired.

Not afraid of anyone, but especially UCONN.

My favorite thing about this game.

Marquette came out with their hair on fire. As they should, as that brutal loss was still on their mind. They had their push. Kam Jones was hitting everything. They were all clapping it up, flexing towards our bench.

And we take the punch and beat their ass. It’s what great teams do. We don’t even flinch.

 

[Knight]

We owe Creighton a punch in the nose.

 

[IDRAFT]

I don't need the stress of playing U Conn. If we gotta do it then so be it. But the awfulness of potentially losing to them I could do without. I was stressed enough this game. I can live with losing to Creighton. Not U Conn.

This.

 

[Redzing1969]

Fair is fair, Smith has certainly had a very good last few minutes!!

Down 15, now up 14 = 29 point turnaround, not shabby

We outscored them 70-39 from point we were down by 15 at 24-9! Dominant!

Mike Tyson’s great quote “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth” is 99 percent accurate.

SJU is the 1 percent that sticks to its plan even after getting punched. They just dust it off and punch back harder.
