Aces dominate Bradley 68-44. Defense shut them down completely. Aces will win some games if they can continue to play defense like that.

Well it helps that Bradley missed all of the wide open shots that they got. Wide open shots all day and nothing would go. By far the worst game of the season for the Braves today.

He is unbelievable. I wonder how many coaches in the country are doing more with less than Niko Medved this year.



Seems to be really good at developing players and correction during games. I remember back about when the Shockers won the NIT, Marshall was really figuring out how to win and coaching to win. Niko reminds me of that type. Makes efficient/timely corrections.

I guess all those 17 turn overs were unforced also. Whatever makes you feel good.

Turnovers were 16-17 were they not? Steals 9-9? Blocks 4-4? The only place that I felt that we truly got beat was on the boards.

With all of those open shots we had over and over we went...

Field Goal Percentage
Today 34.9
Season 44.2
Difference -9.3

Three Point Percentage
Today 21.4
Season 39.9
Difference -18.5

If your selling that we shot how we have all season then obviously you haven't been following BU at all and you weren't watching when all of the open shots bounced out.

That's a fine doubleheader if ever I've seen one. I'll be tuning in for sure

Should be two great games! A lot on the line for each team. MSU trying to stay on top, ISU trying to to keep their momentum moving forward despite the loss to Drake, LU trying to get back to the middle of the pack and not fall to the bottom, and UNI trying to get their first win to start clawing back up the standings.

Any drake fans getting worried Medvid might not last long in Des Moines? I guess it would be the ideal concern. Love what he’s done!

I thought we did a great job on Brown.
