Have you seen Luke Litwiller?!?! MAN....kid can play, no doubt about it. Dirty Dan will have the boys ready. He knew this was coming, and that's why he went to an 8-man rotation, wanted to have the boys ready for this trip. After the game, ISU fans will be saying Fayne Who? and Luke and the Gas man will household names.

UNI didn't have a field goal for the final 10 minutes and still won with just 47 points.

That second half was brutal to watch.


The first half wasn't much better...

UNI had 17 second half points. And won.

I'd call it bad basketball, but I'm just not willing to insult bad basketball like that. The good news is we probably get Part III in StL on Thursday Night!!

All that said, that was the best total defensive effort UNI has had since November. Taylor made contested shots and UNI took everybody else out. Lots of turnovers and shot clock violations on UE.

Usually, its first one to 55 when UNI and Evansville play, who knew it would be first to 45 last night...

Unless Boogie and Clarance go off, we have no shot.

I'll bet on it.

Oh for the Scottrade Faithful to be so lucky as to get a healthy dose of Marty+Jakeball to make the rest of the teams look exciting and speedy. :Cheers:

Ironically, UE averages 14 TOs a game and committed only 11. The refusal of players other than Taylor to take shots did the Aces in. Also, UE averages 19 free throw attempts and shot ZERO. First time since 2001 that UE attempted no free throws in a game.

That's hometown Cedar Rapids ref-ing!

Tonight, Indy State's 6'9" center, Emondre Rickman, is going to sit against Drake with a concussion.

Fun game at SIU Arena. Barry's boys lead 35-34. MSU seems to be playing a lot better the last couple weeks.

Meanwhile, the Redbirds look terrible as expected.
