It's been a really weird 72 hours in #mubb and generally for basketball but we got to get into it. We start off with a discussion of Kobe Bryant's passing and its impact on basketball. We then turn to the extremely strange ending to the Butler game and the fact that Wojo had the most head scratching 8 minutes of coaching since....the Providence game. We also discuss the 2nd half performance of Markus Howard after #chairgate. Both of these things lead us to ask: does Wojo panic at the end of games and is Markus "clutch"? This discussion involves real life data, I know crazy. We then turn to the week ahead to forecast MU's chance to get a road Big East victory and the unexpected return of #JustDon'tLoseToDePaul. Enjoy!

#mubb had a good week and we need to acknowledge that. Now that the conference season is 33.3% complete, we discuss any surprises or revelations we see in the Big East and how it might impact Marquette. We then talk the week that was with a specific focus on the continued otherworldiness of Markus Howard. Bottom line appreciate him while you still can. We then talk games this week, like why we shouldn't be scared of St John's this time around and if Butler is a wounded and therefore even more dangerous animal. Enjoy!

So how was everyone's week? Good? Oh wait, it was bad because your favorite college basketball lost two games that they should have won at least one of? Samesies. So we talk the week that was, why Marquette looks bad all of a sudden, and what can change. That leads to a discussion of reality that this team is apparently just an average team and Wojo may be an average coach, which is a thing. After we work through acceptance of where everything is we talk about the week ahead and can #mubb turn it around Xavier and Georgetown. We close out with predictions and a {checks notes} new #mubb catch phrase? Enjoy!

Just your typical week for a Marquette fan, get boat raced against Creighton and then turn around and largely dominate a top 10 team in Villanova. We talk take-aways from the Creighton game, including the revelation that Theo John needs surgery after the season. We then talk about the Villanova game and what we get out of that game that we think carry forward. We then talk the games coming up with week, how much we hate Seton Hall, and make some predictions. We close out the pod with a somewhat tongue in cheek analysis of why Wojo doesn't have a personality. Enjoy!

Non-conference is done, all hail the coming of a new year and conference season. We first close out the non-con part of the show by talking Symir and Koby(only interesting thing from Central Arkansas game). We then overview the conference season by discussing which teams in the Big East we more worried about, less worried about, and the....same?....worried about from our preview at the start of the season. We then preview the Creighton and Villanova games and make predictions, where one of us is very optimistic. Happy New Year and Enjoy!

Full disclosure, we stole the episode title from Andy Benjamin on twitter but it was way too good not to use. This holiday episode of Scrambled Eggs we revisit the past week of games and discuss what the outcome tells us about the upcoming Big East season. We also talk about the Howard brothers all-time record set against North Dakota State. We then talk about the Central Arkansas game and any takeways we can get from that game. Lastly, we have a conversation about Marquette and Markus Howard's place in the sports media landscape. We hope to pod again in a week but either way we wish all our listeners Happy Holidays and a Merry Christmas. Enjoy!

Quick summary for this podcast, we focused on 3 key topics:

-What do we want to get out of the buy games?

-Initial NET rankings are out, what are our take-aways and thoughts?

-We polled the #mubb twitterverse for questions you want answered and boy did you deliver

We're hoping to be back with a pod before Christmas, enjoy!

It's a pretty straight forward pod this week. #mubb got two wins this week, including a solid road win against a potential Big 12 bottom dweller. So we talked about the two games this week and what we learned from them. We also marvel at the development of Jamal Cain and whether there are any late game Markus concerns. Quick pod for your morning drive. Enjoy!

We're back after #mubb wraps up it's time in Orlando and going to break down how it went. We, first, generally meander around how the Invitational went and what we take away from the Maryland game. We also talk about whether some of the "found pieces" on offense like Brendan Bailey and Sacar Anim are flashes or portend things to come. We then pivot to the week ahead, first by nodding at the Jacksonville match up before moving on to the meat of the week, Kansas State. We break down the match up and discuss whether we should be worried or not (especially given how not worried we were about Wisconsin). Lastly, we close out with old but still exciting news, Dawson Garcia is committed to MU and what does that mean for next years team and get a little excited about some potential line-ups. As always, enjoy!

We're glad you're here, cause we really need to talk this out. #mubb got a great win against Purdue, in come from behind fashion,which was great. However, they then went on the road against a hated rival and not only lost but lost in what has become a signature failure mode in the Wojo era. So we talk through the week that was and figure out given the small sample size if changes need to be made in the line-up and/or approach. We close out the podcast with a discussion around recruiting news, specifically Dawson Garcia. Enjoy, we'll get through this together!
