SiouxMD Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Nice home win for the Sioux but based on RPI (323 v 337) weren't we favored to win? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND92,96 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I thought the Bison played SUU? They played Utah Valley in the season opener (at least it was the season opener for Utah Valley--not sure about the Bison). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sultan Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Utah Valley beat the Bison by 8. Und beat Utah Valley by 5. I guess UND would beat the Bison by 13. Even so the Bison don't have a bad little team. Go Sioux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps in a sense, but it was hard to believe UND should be a favorite on the road against anybody in dI, let alone against a team that actually has a couple of dI wins to their credit.

Even so the Bison don't have a bad little team. Go Sioux. Wow, I guess its a good thing Coach McDermott didn't put the Sioux on the schedule this year. If the Sioux are 13 points better than the Bison and Iowa State onlt beat the Bison by 2, that means UND would have beaten Iowa State by double digits. Oh wait, they did play, and Iowa State won by 30. Oops, my bad. Nice win tonight though. Miles alway said UVSU hired their own refs and they were employees of the school.

bincitysioux Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 Not sure what tonight's game had to do with NDSU but............. Listened intermittently, sounded like Ralston felt the team probably played their best game of the season. Great to see Bledsoe bust out. It was definately a quality win, on the road, against an opponent expected to be one of the top 2 teams in the league. Congrats boys!

ndsubison1 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 i know ive been a pest here, but in all seriousness congrats on the first D1 win guys. UVU is not too terrible of a team. They have a couple decent players and a road win at that makes it look even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpa_guy Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 For what it's worth, here's my take from a "hockey only" Sioux fan that attended both the UND an NDSU games at UVU (in fact, last night was the first Sioux basketball game that I have ever attended live). UVU holds a tremendous home court advantage when teams from lower altitudes come here. NDSU appeared to rely heavily on jump shooting, and therefore was hampered because it is difficult to have fresh shooting legs in this environment (this was clearly evident two years ago when the Bison were the far superior team but missed numerous non-defended open shots from the start). In addition to very good defense, I believe the Sioux won last night because they primarily drove to the basket (especially Bledsoe) instead of taking jump shots. They dominated on the inside even more the stats show (boards 30 to 24) as UVU had a handful of offensive rebounds that went nowhere because they were defended well. Hopefully this game will be a springboard for the Sioux to close out the season respectfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
