Yep.


This pace would wear every single MVC team out except WSU.

Not saying that would beat WSU/CU/etc.... but the pace is freaking killer.


WSU and CU are probably the only 2 suited for this type of tempo. I was afraid it would wear us out especially coming off that game on Wednesday in Evansville.

Oh I completely agree. These guys are bad, but not the reason we are losing.

Shame, great effort UNI.
Thoughts and prayers to WSU finding a new conference.

Down 5 with a minute to play and no foul? Poor time management there.

VCU sure looked good tonight. I was pulling for UNI, but tough game. Too bad neither team is likely to be in the NCAA this year.

This season is really frustrating. Once again UNI played well enough to win, but VCU hit some tough shots and UNI couldn't freakin finish. The refs also sucked, not the reason UNI lost, but it made things tough down the stretch. I wish there was no snow on the ground so I could go find and ant hill and kick the **** out of it.

I wouldn't count VCU out of winning the CAA quite yet...

Absolutely not...likewise for UNI and others in the MVC Tourney.

Didn't go quite as I thought it might. Pleased with the effort out of the team. A few breakdowns on defense, a few too many actual turnovers and a few too many calls not going our way.

Need to bottle the effort and take it into these last two games and on to St. Louis. Still could be a very dangerous team if we can win the last two and avoid Thursday.

Mitchell is going to be something really good. He and Tuttle are going to make a nice combo to build around. Next year they may really take the lead and allow Koch, Sonnen, and James to go back to their complimentary roles.
