Marquette 71, Illinois 64 Postgame
Turnovers
Too little in the paint
… and Kolek got game.

Stop shooting 3s
And that's why not having a real point guard is going to hurt us in March.

Turnovers in the final 10 minutes killed us. Credit to Marquette, they’re legit. Love having a game like this in November. It’ll pay dividends later in the season.
Hawkins still very frustrating to watch. Both teams had a ton of effort but massive differences in basketball IQ.

Just can’t be that mad at this loss. That was a darn good Marquette team that will go far this year. Definitely some room for improvement and better ball control and the rim seemed to have a lid at times but this Marquette team was unforgiving with our mistakes and just made us pay each time. We put great effort in and I think we’ll have some great film to study.

Got beat by a better team. But played with a final 4 team.
Sucks, but we're ok

Flashes of great play, but too many dumb turnovers and couldn't hit the big 3 at the end. Lost opportunity, but more coming up.

Hawkins and Harmon were bad tonight
Good effort tonight. Turnovers and bad shot selection (mostly in the first half)
This team has potential.

Agreed, but man … wanted that one. Assuming no epic collapses at home, we pretty much have to beat Rutgers in Jersey and FAU at the Garden now, IMO. Just a lot more pressure.

Some things to clean up, no doubt, but we have a good team.
Who could have seen this coming.

Also our team is large composed of parts playing their 3rd real game together while Marquette is both veteran and familiar with each other.
I am not worried. It was a good, competitive game.
Fell into the trap of shooting too many threes again. Brad’s got to do something about getting guys to adjust.
Coleman and Shannon can’t turn the ball over so much.
We are a good team though

Because TSJ and Coleman had 10 TOs between them?
We will be fine until we cut down stupid decisions, or non-decisions and please eliminate the unforced turnovers.
If not, teams like Marquette will eat us up in March.

What would Sencire Harris on Kolek have looked like?
