WIU - Week 8

[sealhall74]

too many minutes for 4 of the starters.and it showed in the end.the bench played great.i would love to see bruster and brandon get more minutes.the 3 guards already have a penchant for doing it themselves and they only get worse when tired.the three combined for 13 turn-overs to their 9 assist and committed 12 fouls.and only covington went to free throw line.they shot a combined 13-35.tate was great but had nothing left in tank the last 9 minutes.

I think we are really feeling the pain of Ancrum sitting on the bench and the Miklusak's injury today did not look good either.

I am pretty dissapointed. If we cant be Omaha, we will likely be one of bottom teams in conference. I know it tough to win on the road, but this is not a positive move in the right direction.

One team will be left out of the conference tournament this season. We have to hope that this loss does not come back to haunt us in March.

Well it's do-able! If JC could only hit some shots! jc

No way do you keep Gilbeck out of foul trouble in a Man defense.

SDSU big boy comes out to high post, Gilbeck follows, leaves paint wide open for easy drive. Oldest trick in the play book.

How does Tate get a foul when he is on the floor?

[sealhall74]

Gilbeck got to learn to go straight up with those long arms.

Four minutes and within reach. Fingers crossed.
