Leatherneck Nation

Little early to be talking about must-win games but I will do it anyway. We are sitting in the middle of the pack in conference standings right now ahead of the Mavs, Jacks, and ORU. I watched the SDSU@ORU game on Thurs. Those are two very good teams and with a little "gelling" down the stretch, either one could find themselves in the conference tournament championship game. The chances of beating them again on their home court later this season are slim to none. We absolutely must maintain some breathing room between us and the teams below us. A win today will go a long way in that regard. I don't know if our cold shooting against Denver was because they locked down on us pretty tight or not. If it was, expect the Mavs to try something similar.

Looks like the game will be available via First Row Sports. Game time is 19:00 (7PM).

Ouch. We look like a D3 team going up against a D1 team tonight.

Miklusak inadvertently just took out a ref after sinking the 3.

Whatever jitters we had in first 10 minutes has went away. Billy got them in zone and seems to have worked. We are staying close 23-27 late in 1st half.

Wright seems to dislike Duff recently

These homer announcers are about as bad as it gets.

Omaha got hot from 3 to end the half

We are within striking distance down 43-36 at the half. Need to tighten up things on the defensive perimeter. Hahn has NBA range.

Omaha is 10-18 on 3's in the 1st half, you wouldn't think they can keep that up in the 2nd half.
