Marshall (1/13/22)

[Jonnyeagle]

11 turnovers is very concerning for us.

Abou!!!!

[Andrew]

Looked like Abou got pushed in the back into that play.

Let’s be honest, this is a very even matchup talent wise

Marshall 45 ------- NT 43

Herd with their first lead of the night.  In a dogfight now.

To be fair he is leasing the team in rebounds and assists. Usually  had a block too but no one has one yet. 

Ryan Fitzpatrick once led his team in rushing. 

[Pavlovs Eagle]

Avenge Ousmane!

[CMJ]

NT 52 ------- Marshall 50 

 

7:08 to go

 

Tight game obviously.  We couldn't hit anything there for awhile but a couple of big shots have gone in as of late.  Defense still strong.

[CMJ]

NT 59 ------- Marshall 58 

 

3:49 to go

 

Can't get much tighter than this.  Need to really clamp down on defense and hopefully hit some free throws (we're only at 40% right now).

Abou is a beast, but we should not be this close with a team as bad as Marshall.

Dude - Kinsey is going crazy for Marshall. He’s a hell of a talent. It happens.

NT 69 ------- Marshall 65 

 

Final

Way to gut it out. Props to Bell for a game changing block there. Never apologize for any conference road wins!

[RiseUNT]

Road conference games are big wins.

NT 69

Nice

[Green Lantern]

Also remiss if I didn’t shout out Perry for the cold blooded Hamletesque runner in the lane down the stretch. Amazing shot.

[golfingomez]

great defense at the end by the team, tough to win on the road, especially when travelling to the furthest you can for a conference game. good job by the guys and now it's time for another tough test in bowling green.

[Marty]

WKU up next. 

[greenminer]

Got to check into the broadcast with 2 minutes remaining.  Obviously, I have tons of accurate insight....

Abou has leveled up into beast mode.  Can he stay there?
Look for teams to continue to find ways to force the ball 1) away from Perry, then 2) into Bell's hands, if possible.  Make Bell try to get creative.

[GrandGreen]

Gutsy win, no matter what record Marshall has.  

Ousmane's best game ever, could NT have a developing star or is Marshall just weak in the paint?

NT going to have to play a lot better Saturday.

NT again appeared to only play 7 players.  Murray with 3 threes, unexpected, but certainly needed.  

[bstnsportsfan3]

It was ugly at times but a win is a win on the road in conference play! Gutsy win

[BillySee58]

That was a great job down the stretch. Murray with his best shooting game of the year, Abou with the best game of his career, Perry with the big shot making, and Bell with the huge defensive play at the end.

[UNTLifer]

Was the game on ESPN+?  Ended up with a work conflict and was hoping to watch the replay but can't find it.

[Green Otaku]

Good win and effort to grind it out. The missed free throws are a huge sore spot, those are game winning and losing points. If the team figures out how to keep a foot on the other team's throat we will be dominant. It's embarrassing  how a team with Marshall's record draws better than us, this team deserves better. 

 

I'm really wondering why Wright is no where to be seen? I think we all would have figured he would be getting some more minutes by now.
