That game made me feel bad for Trees fans.

Agreed. One of those games that no matter who lost they were going to feel terrible. Both teams had terrible calls against them. Both had several opportunities to win the game and let it slip away. Setups a big game in Carbondale on Wednesday against Loyola.

The SIU Arena should be rockin’ like back in the 2000’s. Should be a fun game.

SIU Arena needs to be packed and to make it a living hell for Loyola on Wednesday.

How so? I thought the Salukis got their eyeballs screwed out in the second half. Lol

Perhaps. Not so much talking about the calls, but just to lose yet another game where they had a second half lead. The end of game execution for INSt was just terrible. Kudos to SIU though. Looked like they were beat and they never quit.

Redbirds knock off UNI assuring UNI of a Thursday game and ISUr of missing Thursday. ISUr was down by 11 at the half but made 11/14 (79%) from 3 in the second half to win 79-75. Trust is UNI fans we know what it feels like to give away a game after leading by double digits.

MY was the man tonight. Completely took over in the 2nd half. Plus Tinsley was in fire from 3

Wow! What a second half! I did not expect that against a really good Bradley team, especially after how great their defense was throughout much of the first half. We couldn't do anything. Then to hit shots the way we did. Amazing. If we keep playing the way we have the last six games I think we'll be very tough to beat in St. Louis.

That 21-0 run down the stretch was amazing!

That is two home games in a row where Valpo has taken a close game and turned it into a blow out in the second half with lights out shooting. Playing well the last few weeks. See if that can carry over to STL.

Drake up 35-25 at Springfield, MO at the half.

Drake wins over MO State 67-63. Reed Timmer hits a big three and added the free throw. 2 years in a row winning at Mo State.
