Marquette is in a dogfight with Murray State. Tied at 32, 1st TV timeout of the 2nd half. Tons of lead changes, both teams are very evenly matched.

Best game of the year so far. If Marquette hadn't blown 5 or 6 layups they would be in control, but MSU has the crowd and both teams are playing over their heads.

The NCAA is going to have to go back and address the Flagrant 1 call when a player with the ball makes contact above the shoulders of the defender. If I were a player I would purposely play up on the guy with the ball looking for contact. It is a huge boost getting the FT's and the ball. I realize the rule is in place to prevent injury, but I can see it being the opposite. These kids already give up their bodies in order to take a charge. This will probably be Coach K's new defensive strategy.

Kevin Stallings is not a very good coach, not sure why people think he is. Game plan for vandy should have been to post up Fez so he could score or kick it out. That didnt happen until maybe the last few minutes, and even then Fez really has no concept of how to post up. Then they go for a three down 2 on the final possession. Just terrible. They were hurt by some bad calls but thats not why they lost.
Also dont understand coaches sitting their best players with 3 fouls. If he fouls out big deal. But if you lose and he finishes with 3 or 4 fouls does it really matter? Got to have your best guys out there. Jeff Taylor shouldnt have sat so long. Thats also on Stallings.

Hopefully their season ends the same way the '91 UNLV season did.

Seriously it went from a tie game, to a points explosion! UK just cannot miss. They don't typically have to shoot a lot of jumpers but they might drop 90 on Iowa St. because they want to push the pace.

The two things that you dont want to happen to you the most are being undercut and catching an elbow to the face.......

Hopefully their season ends the same way the '91 UNLV season did. Not if it comes down between them and Syracuse.

Heslip has 24 pts on 8/11 from 3 for Baylor. They're in a good one against Colorado.
The thing about Heslip is that he is useless if he isn't hitting from deep. Baylor will sometimes make offense-defense substitutions for him because he really can't do anything else.
***Make that 27 pts on 9/12 from 3. He's on fire!!!

I should have clarified, not actually taking the elbow but getting close enough to flop when an elbow may come your way. I am pretty sure Will Barton did this against us in the second Memphis game. Getting undercut is extremely scary and something I hope I don't see.

I wasn't really commenting on whether Heslip would be useful in our offense or not. Clearly a guy who can hit 9 threes in a game is an asset, just that he can't really do anything else so you're playing 5 on 4 on the defensive end and if his shot isn't falling he's of no use.

Eh not really, just being on the court as a threat is enough for me. He always can do that and he can handle the ball well enough. plus your surround him with length and a shotblocker you can have him out there for long periods of time.

Two back to back awful calls cost Louisville about six points. First they call a charge despite the New Mexico defender leaving his feet, waving off a basket that should have been an and one. Then they call an and one on the other end despite no contact.
The officiating in college basketball is abysmal.

That charge call I think they called Russ Smith for warding off with the arm...the announcers didn't say it correctly....now whether he did or not i think that was debatable
