[QUOTE="Connell62, post: 104955, member: 484"] Watched the 2nd half of the Marquette/NJIT game last night, and I'm now also firmly in this camp. We must beat Marquette, and I think that we will if we come out and play with focus from the start. That seemed to be the message from BG after the IPFW game. Play with the same level of focus that we played with against UGA. From the looks of it, Marquette is just bad! Coming into last night, NJIT was 418 in the most recent Massey Index (MQ was 117), and they came within a few late buckets from pulling the upset. This coming off of the hills of an upset loss to Nebraska Omaha on their homecourt. You'd have thought that Marquette came out blazing after that.. Nope.. another poor showing. They have no inside game (got outrebounded by NJIT 37-38). Chuck and Demarco should have a monster game. Pea was right in that they both might have a double-double in this game if they stay out of foul trouble. Juan Anderson is a pretty solid player for Quette, but I think that we stick Marcus on him and call it a day. We'll certainly need to tighten up our perimeter defense as their guards are very good at getting by their man. From what I could gather that seemed to be their game plan on offense = penetrate and look for a lay-up or foul (they went to the line 34 times last night) or kick it out to the guy standing at the 3 pt line. Unless they shoot an ungodly percentage from 3 tomorrow night, I think that we should win this one with a little breathing room (6-10 points). [/QUOTE]
