Sounds like it’s just a smart defense mechanism then.
Will be awaiting your next counter, full butt and all.

Tonight should be very interesting for Purdue. Not a big fan of starting two freshmen in the backcourt against a Shaka Smart led Marquette team. They like to press and they like to run and this will test the poise and readiness of the young guys.
We are better than them on paper and the game is at Mackey but these are the types of games we lose at times.

Dawg, you lost to DePaul… I gave you guys some credit, but now that I was made aware of that fact. you are a bottom feeder for that alone and nothing can wipe away that stench.
Btw-12/3/2021. 86-51 Illinois😂
With all due respect we repaid that favor by running you out of our gym in the rematch. We were up 23 with 6 minutes left. Congrats for cutting it to 12 at the buzzer.
"All the credit in the world to them. That was something my team hasn’t seen in a long, long time. And that was absolutely get punched in the face. They deserve all the credit,” Underwood told reporters after the game."
We played poorly against Depaul. No question. We sure as s--t weren't a "bottom feeder" last year. Sorry.
You lost to DePaul, that’s enough to categorize you as a bottom feeder and/or Anus of the B1G.
Lost by 35 to the B1G champs.
Kiss it 💍
All 3 of those were 2019. You’ve beat 3 big ten teams since 2020. Illinois beat 15 last season. DePaul only won 15 games total last year.
Your program is a dumpster fire.
Michigan State making me feel better about Gonzaga barely winning last week. Looking solid against Kentucky.
MSU has looked better so far this year than I thought.
Could very well be that the very top of college basketball isn’t as good as years prior.
Gonzaga doesn’t look anywhere close to as good as the 2 years prior.
And this is mostly the same core of a Kentucky team that lost to a 15 seed.
I mean yeah sure, but we’ve gone into half up on 2 top 5 teams. I don’t think we’re world beaters but it’s been more fun than I thought.
We literally beat you to win a B1G title, that’s gotta be a tough reality to face
Tick tock
Sissoko being a competent player really adds something you guys have been missing the last 2 years since Tillman left
Yep. The old havoc offense was surgically effective for them the year they went to the Final Four with VCU. He didn't have the guys to do it right at Texas but supposedly this Marquette roster is more structured to do it well.
Do you follow your baseball program? A buddy of my son just committed to Maryland today.
I don’t that much to be honest , but will watch them in post-season play- big congrats to your son’s buddy !!!
Skyy ain’t gonna be on all-freshman unless he picks it offensively.
Hell both our other freshman guards, Sencire Harris and Jayden Epps, look better so far
That was before they put in freedom of movement rules. Back then VCU and Louisville (to a lesser extent) would foul every possession knowing refs wouldn’t call them all. It’s actually nauseating watching havoc defense highlights. Hand check hip check steal. Repeat.
I’m not sure I agree, but that’s a good thing. Skyy looks like he’s playing a role that’s much needed for this team. I think it’s sustainable into Big Ten play and Underwood will play him more than the other 2. His floor looks high and I think he’s got room to expand his game.
If he is just being asked to facilitate and get shots for others, he looks good. But I’d prefer him attack his man more off the dribble than he is currently.
But again the fact that the other 2 have played so well is reason for excitement. Backup guards were a big question mark coming into the season
