Hoping for a win....but I definitely can't see them winning on the road by 10 the way they have been giving up points. :lol:

If we lose this one, a call to Delilah might be a good idea.  Our boys will need some encouragement.  Who better than a mom of 15 with 11 adopted.  ;)

One bit of good news, no Filip Rebraca on the court.  Put up 49 and 20 boards in 2 games against us last year.  He tranferred to Iowa.

Up by 10 35-25 at the half.  UND is pretty rough around the edges.  We should be up by a lot more.  Missed several FTs.
No Pearson, did not hear why.  He is apparently in sweats on the bench.  Lamar went down with an apparent knee injury.

Don't normally complain about officiating, but this was fucking terrible. Completely one sided.

73-68 the final, good guys.  Any win on the road is a good win, but we let a bad team take it down to the wire.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Best bet I made in a while! They won and still struggle on the road. Will take the win though.

Can I ask all of you a really deep and serious question?  Okay, here goes!  What gives you more points in a basketball game?  A tomahawk "rattle" the support wire jam?  Or a conservative off the backboard layup?  Also, when you absolutely need a basket, which is riskier and which seems to make the most sense at that point of the ball game?  Just asking!!!! ;)
