Another championship game lost on a high bounce 3 going in at the buzzer
:Cheers:

Actually the first shot was 2 feet short and the winning shot off a great saved ball rebound was a perfect swish. No where near depressing as that loss 2 years ago.

I'm sorry I was misinformed. Dish network dropped cbssportsnetwork on Tuesday in a money dispute and could only listen to it through a LA Tech Radio station Sorry for the bad info.

All the pressure in the world tomorrow - lose to NCSU and you're quite likely facing Tennessee, and facing the prospect of missing out on the top 3 teams in the Atlantis field.


I agree with the sentiment since the NCAA has forced Mid-majors to always think about the "signature win" but all that truly matters is that "win" part. Yes, Arizona would have been the ideal resume matchup, but a good win over SMU and a matchup with a quality NC State team is preferable to a loss just to get that matchup.

Early returns seem to suggest that regardless of who you play in this tournament you're getting a chance at a high quality, top-50 (WKU might be the one exception).

I am really liking Pickford. 6'4" and averaging 9.8 rebounds currently. He will only get better too.

Missouri S&T is the former Missouri-Rolla.

Sloppy game for the Braves but probably a good hangover game after the Bahamas. Childs is so good, averaging 9/7 and that will only increase as his minutes increase. The passport issue for Bar keeping him from making the trip might have been somewhat of a blessing because it gave Childs more minutes.

Big game Saturday vs Georgia Southern. Thought I'd never say that.

Way to go, UNI! Very tired looking team found enough to make a couple big plays and close that one out.

Just watched Northern Iowa beat NC State. Very impressed with them. Very smart team, very focused, and have the best coach in the Valley. Anyone who thinks they won't be right in the thick of the conference race, doesn't know how basketball should be played. If the Aces could finish a game like the Panthers did, they would be undefeated right now.

Very nice win for UNI! Very impressed they were able to come back from that 7 point deficit and get that win! Now go beat Villanova tomorrow!

A little late on my picks but here we go (11/24-11/26).

Villanova
Loyola
Valparaiso
Missouri State

Indiana State
Bradley
Loyola
Valparaiso
Murray State
Illinois State

Drake

Let me add this. If UNI somehow upsets Villanova tomorrow that would be about the best thing the conference could have asked for this season. It would be huge in showing that the Valley is more than just Wichita and Creighton.
