Scrambled Eggs - Marquette Basketball

Sadly, what once promised to be a magical #mubb season came to an end over a week ago and we're finally ready to talk about it. We talk about the game result, any takeaways we have regarding the team or it's philosophy and how we get over things. Next we turn to the legacy Tyler and Oso will leave behind at Marquette as this almost assuredly was their last game in blue and gold. Then we do a little bit of looking ahead to figure what the future might hold. Enjoy!

Joe McCann flies solo on this mission but he's in good company because Marquette legend, Travis Diener joins him on the pod. They talk Marquette's first Sweet 16 in 11 years, what this experience is like for the players, and the impact this season can have on the program. Enjoy!

Welcome in to a VERY excited Scrambled Eggs podcast. #mubb has broken through to the 2nd week of the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2013 and we are here to celebrate. We talk through the Round of 32 game, how it happened, and the keys to victory. We then turn to the Sweet 16 game against NC State and wrap up the pod with some light Dallas area talk. Celebrate and get ready for what we hope to be a long run. Enjoy!

#mubb has advanced in the NCAA tournament and while it wasn't as pretty as we would have wanted, it was a solid win. We're back to talk about Marquette's first tournament win since it's last tournament win. We talk about the best episode of the K1 and Stewie show, Tyler, The Healthy and a Jopwagon capable of double doubles. We then talk the next game, which is tough, against Colorado. This is a #ScrambledEggsAfterDark special. Enjoy!

The regular season is done, the conference tournament season is done, even Selection Sunday is done. Now it's time for #mubb to show what it's capable of in the NCAA Tournament. We quickly dissect the Big East Tournament for football....we mean basketball. We then turn to NCAA Tournament bracket and break down Marquette's match-up against Western Kentucky and our overall impression of MU's road to the Final Four. This is what we've all been waiting for, enjoy!

Well we did it, we brought together staples of the Cracked Sidewalks, Alan Bykowski joins the pod to talk brackets. We talk Marquette seeding and opportunities, where the Big East stacks up, and other such nonsense. Make your bracket prediction as well. Enjoy!

Despite injuries and headwins #mubb brings the regular season to a close with a win and a solid Big East campaign. We're back to talk about the past week of games from the hearty effort against UCONN to the gutsy win on the road against Xavier. We spend time talk about it each game and what we took away from it before turning to the Big East Tournament. We discuss what we want from the tournament and how we see the tournament going. Buckle up kids, the ride's about to exciting. Enjoy!

Boy, nothing like a routine pass to knock the wind out of the #mubb sails. The team had a series of set backs on the player availability front but with win anyway mentality they gave it a go this weekend in Omaha. We talk about the gutsy performance from the team in Saturday's game first. We then turn to the injury and availability issues the team is going through and what we think the team should do the rest of the regular season. We also talk about tournament seeding as result of what's going on with the team right now. We close out the pod with some senior day talk and a preview of the final week of regular season games. Enjoy!

No matter how you slice it, that was a fun and stress free week of #mubb. We're back to talk about a Kam Jones heater, Tyler Kolek pass-o-rama, and getting wins that count without overtaxing ourselves. We then preview the week ahead in a rematch against both Providence and Creighton where we decide how worried to be about a Hopkins-less Providence and how much it sucks to be in Omaha. We close out looking ahead a little bit at where Marquette is in the race for a protected seed in the NCAA tournament and whether or not the cherished 1 seed is still available. Enjoy!

Boy that did not go the way we had it planned in our heads. #mubb took a drubbing against clear #1 in the country, UCONN. So we talk about the game, what happened, what went wrong, what takeaways for the season as a whole, and is Marquette as far behind as that game might indicate. We then look to the week ahead with the hopes that the team having a chance to come home for a bit and play some not as awesome teams will have restorative powers. Enjoy!

This is gonna be an intense one. #mubb is back after a brief layoff with a heart pounding win against St John's on National Marquette Day. We talk about the vibes, the crowd, and the game to start off the pod. We then turn to the big week ahead. Marquette is on a 7 game winning streak but face to tough road games this week if they hope to extend it. First is a revenge game against Butler in Hinkle, surely Marquette won't shoot so poorly again? Then there is the top 5 showdown in Hartford against #1 UCONN. What will it take for Marquette to win, how does this game impact the rest of the season, we discuss. Enjoy!

Don't look now but #mubb has won 6 in a row and is starting to get healthy. We talk about the roller coaster that was Villanova and a bit of a laugher in our nations capital against Georgetown. We then look ahead to National Marquette Day and what we think of the rematch against St Johns. We also spend a little bit of time looking ahead and whether the regular season title is out of sight yet or not. And we close with some free advertising for the university and NMD. Enjoy!

Don't look now but Marquette is on a 4 game winning streak. #ScrambledEggs is back to talk about this past week where Marquette pulled together to beat a bad DePaul team and a short handed Seton Hall team to win two games this week. We talk about player development, rain praise on Oso Ighodaro, and talk injuries. We then turn to the week ahead where we hope there is some continued Shaka magic in Philly despite some heavy head winds and talk about Georgetown being bad so even short handed we hope for a win. Enjoy!

Phew, that was a real gut check week for #mubb given how things were going the last couple of games. However, the team passed the gut check with a strong win over Villanova on MLK Day and a real roller coaster of a game at MSG against St Johns. We talk about both games, any general trends that we see as a result, and the emergence of Zaide Lowery. We then talk about the week ahead which includes what should be a laugher in Chicago against DePaul (emphasis on should) and a rematch against Seton Hall. As always, enjoy!

Well this turned out to be a no-good, terrible, unbelievable week for you #mubb team. We kick it off by getting into what in the hell is going on here post-Butler. We then also discuss the very disappointing Sean Jones news. To give folks a chance to vent and problem solve we took a look at what you folks thought is wrong and decided whether we agree or not. After a WHILE we then turn to the week ahead to decide if this is the week they can turn it around. Enjoy!

Welp, that did not go as expected. #ScrambledEggs is back to talk about a disappointing performance at Seton Hall and talk about how much concern we have for expectations. We also look ahead to the Butler game, thankfully at home, which should bode well for Marquette. It may not have been the week we wanted but damn it, we're gonna enjoy this next week if it kills us.

We've got Larry David references, game commentary, projections for the rest of the season, and other such nonsense. Welcome to the meat of Marquette's schedule and the end of holiday season. We pod about the result of the Creighton game, if anything has changed in how we view this team, and what we think might happen against Seton Hall in New Jersey. Enjoy!

It's the holiday season and it seems #mubb is in the holiday spirit by giving away success. We catch up on the last couple of games but especially on the road result to start Big East play. We talk through whether or not MU has been "figured out", whether we should adjust lofty expectations, and how recoverable things are. We wanted to make sure to get this out to you as our holiday episode so we try to have fun, we hope you do too as well as a same and happy Christmas. Enjoy!

Well that was an interesting "buy game" week huh? #mubb had a great week against some name brands and it was awesome. We talk through the Texas game, Tyler Kolek's latest curse word hilarity, and the impact of the win. We then talk Notre Dame beat down and briefly discuss the one game this week. Lastly we take some crowd sourced questions to talk about Jopwagon, Freshmen, and landmines on the schedule ahead. Enjoy!

Welp, definitely not how we thought that game would go. Welcome back #mubb, we hit a bit of a snag. We talk about the Wisconsin result and whether it tells us anything about the season as a whole. We also talk about another tough week to come with a top 30 Texas team and a rivalry in Notre Dame on the docket this week. Let's get right and we hope you enjoy!
