[MTOleBlue]

Two huge games. Marquette is a perpetually good Big East team so beating them would be a major resume win.

12-10 Marquette after the 1st quarter. Blakely made a big freshman mistake at the end of the quarter when we got a turnover -- she just ran down the court with 15 seconds left and shot a crazy layup with 8 seconds left. Gotta know to HOLD for the last shot.

Really good second quarter. Hope we continue this excellent defense. Marquette is a high quality team that will be one of the top teams in the Big East this year -- would be a great win

[MTOleBlue]

Fantastic defense once again. Tons of Marquette turnovers -- and many of them are just great defensive plays/steals by the Raiders

 

[SpaceRaider]

MT getting called for fouls and Maquette cutting into lead 32-27

 

[MTOleBlue]

3 point shooting has been terrible today. Gotta start hitting your wide open shots.

 

[SpaceRaider]

Whittington and Whitson both shooting blanks on threes, 0-9

Desperately need some of those to drop.

Boldyreva's size would come in handy here. I get that Insell doesn't want to "mess up the flow" but the flow is always better when she's in the game.

 

[SpaceRaider]

overtime

 

[MTOleBlue]

We should have won this game already. Jalynn Gregory shot her 3 with 1 second left on shot clock but refs didn't even bother reviewing. Claiming there are no TVs but there are literally 2 from the FloHoops stream broadcast booth. That's so bush league.

 

[SpaceRaider]

At some point when you are 0 for infinity you need to pass the ball

 

[SpaceRaider]

Marquette 55
MT 52

MT timeout

 

[MTOleBlue]

Whittington has sadly gotten much worse on offense over the last few years.

Also, Insell apparently didn't notice we were down 2 with shot clock off???????

 

[MTOleBlue]

Just a terrible coaching job. Horrible game management in this one

 

[MTOleBlue]

And now we tie up the inbound and get called for a foul. Cool! These refs should be fired for that game-losing call on Gregory's 3.

 

[SpaceRaider]

Whitson fouls out and MU to line

 

[SpaceRaider]

57-55

:05

 

[SpaceRaider]

That does it.

 

[SpaceRaider]

59-55

MT loses, was up 11 point at one time

MU outscored MT in 3rd, 4th, and in OT

 

[MTOleBlue]

I cannot believe we lost this game. Gregory's made 3 that refs didn't even review cost us the game. Horrible, horrible officiating. Wow. TV showed 1 second on clock when she shot and they waved it off. We would've been up 3 with time running down and instead we lose in OT. Geez
