SWSiouxMN Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 After UND came oh so close to a home sweep of the Montana schools, they will hit the road this week. First up, a NAU team that has surprised for all the wrong reason this year. Cannot understate these two important facts 1) Only meeting with NAU this year, so a must win for tiebreaker purposes 2) Winnable road game. Must have to stay in good shape for a top 4 seed Other Games UNC (2-4) @ SUU (2-4) Idaho (3-2) @ Mont (6-0) EWU (3-2) @ MSU (2-4) Weber, ISU, Sac State and PSU are all off and will play travel partners on Saturday. My expectations: To win and go for the road sweep this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxphan27 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Played a couple good basketball games last weekend and I expect that trend to continue. We need to win tomorrow night; there are a lot tougher road games that lie ahead, so make this opportunity count. No lapses defensively and we'll win this one by 15+ Go Fighting Hawks! Talons Down! Beaks Up! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoops44 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I think Quinton Hooker is one of the top five players in the conference,” N. AZ Coach Murphy said. “I felt it was a shame, and I am partly responsible -- as all the coaches are -- that he wasn’t all-conference last year in some capacity.” He is a very good player and he has developed really nicely,” Murphy said. “Coach (Brian) Jones has done a great job with him. He was the only freshman on that team a couple years ago that had so many seniors. Then last year as a sophomore I thought he really developed and this year he has developed into one of the best players in the league.” “They do a good job in the gaps, they will switch up their defenses, they will play a little zone,” Murphy said. “They have always been aggressive defensively and really give you different looks.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxfan512 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Minneapolis area - The game will be on cable on Fox College Sports Pacific. Not sure of the channel, I think it is 173 or 174 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDhoops Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 im more worried than most. all road games are tough. but i think UNDs backcourt will stifle Yanku enough to give us the win. 63-61 or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWSiouxMN Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 I see this being similar to ISU About a 10-15 point win for UND. I'll go 77-63 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxfan512 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Well, I watch UND Basketball as much as I can, but I am by no stretch a great basketball mind. Hell, there is plenty about the game I just don't understand, and haven't ever tried to learn, but I've found this to be a very entertaining half. - Hope to see Baldwin keep hitting 3's like that. Heck hope to see everyone keep hitting 3's like this. - Really impressed with Yanku for NAU - Pretty entertaining play by play guy. Really unbiased, and has some pretty entertaining calls.

sioux24/7 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Avants needs to get more minutes than Shanks. He just provides so much more on both ends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
