This Acuff kid is killing us. 71-70 UND with 13 seconds left. Get the ball to Eaglestaff and make your FTs!

71-67 UND 17.5 seconds left. EMU ball.

At some point do you go to a starting lineup of Eaglestaff, Brooks, Omot, Amar and T? As long as Brooks is playing plenty of minutes probably doesn’t matter but it seems he has been providing more than King so far.

Leading 69-67 with under a minute to play. Omot stepped up and Eaglestaff hit 3 FTs. UND ball.

Trailing 53-51 now. Nice little run there.

Trailing by 9 now. T just set a moving screen. Things are unraveling.

2nd half not going well. Trailing by 5 right now. Brooks about to go to the line.

Omot will figure it out. I just don’t want him to force it. That’s what it looked like he was doing a bit against Pacific. He can get to the rim and either draw a foul or make the bucket almost every time. I’m sure he’s trying to show he has an expanded game to get bigger looks but we can’t let it hurt winning.

I didn’t catch todays game at all but seems like we fought back from a deficit and won despite Omot not performing, again. Looks like Eaglestaff stepped up along with Brooks and Amar looked good again. He’s been consistent.

Cost me more to watch that pathetic showing.

This won’t happen, but if we want to be a contender, it has to.

UND (KP 235) heads to Arkansas for their MTE and takes on New Orleans (KP 288), the former home of everyone’s good friend Desean Allen Eikens. They are led by former Denver guard, Jordan Johnson. He’s averaging 23.3 and 4.5 assists. Doesn’t look like New Orleans has beat a D1 opponent yet. KenPom has UND winning this one 78-75. If BJ and/or Eaglestaff have a better game than against Pacific, I think we win this one by closer to 10 points. Let’s keep the winning streak going!

What have NDSU’s odds been during their championship years? -160 is kinda nuts.

I think that’s fixed now. I embedded a tweet yesterday without editing or anything. I was surprised.

Would imagine the bid they submitted was substantially larger than this round, right? I don’t know when bids were submitted so maybe the NDSU possibility wasn’t thought about but gotta imagine bids in general that round are just much better with it being a more important game and also not a holiday weekend.

So does Sac State always run a 2 QB system? Looks like Conklin (#17) is a passer and Bennett (#1) is more of the dual threat. Looks like last game it was pretty 50/50 between the two.

We gotta remember that Mara didn’t join the team until the school year started. He will get PT but it’s going to take time. The others had all summer playing together.

This! That’s what’s most impressive here. Our next 8 games are all winnable. Not saying we win them all but good matchups. Nebraska’s that 9th game, I’m not saying that’s an L just a step up.

Agreed with that. Just kind of frustrating that they’re the ones trying to shoot us out of it. Omot can get to the rim/get a foul almost every time. Just attack!

What’s Eaglestaff and Omot doing? Come on.

What are we doing having to foul a guy to stop a fast break layup after our own FT? Come on.

Looks like we have the Iowa Eaglestaff and not the Elon Eaglestaff tonight.

Not a great start. Didn’t catch how many fouls Mayar has but he must have 2 or 3 with Danielson starting the 2nd?
