Of course they get gifted a possession.  Jesus.

 

[Sioux94]

We had an 8-9 minute in that Dixie state game where we only scored 8 points.  Can have HUGE scoring droughts like that in a game and expect to win.

Of course

I'd say 1 and 3 were the biggest issues down the stretch.  After that botched call and NDSU came up empty on the possession we should have gotten something better than the Sims 3.  He can get that shot later in the possession.

The sucky thing was UND played very well for 33-34 minutes.  This team has shown massive improvement as the year as gone on.  They have shown that they are going to be in the mix for a top 4 spot in the league.  But they have some issues that need to be corrected before conference play.  Getting DAE back healthy and ready to go will be helpful for starters.

How is a timeout able to be called when a player from each team has their hand on ball?????  Refs clearly blew a couple calls at end. 

[SWSiouxMN]

I love Igbanugo, but he shouldn't be scoring more points (7) than Ihenacho and Nero combined (5)

[SWSiouxMN]

The bench (21 points) outscored Nero, Ihenacho, Sims, and Sueker (10 points)

[Siouxperfan7]

Went cold from 3 as well. Started out 5-10. After that they went 1-11. 

[UND1983]

Woofsville.  What an ugly game.  Was that a 7 min stretch of no scoring?

This.  We are definitely in top 4.

Definitely potential to move up from where the pre season polls had us. We have them twice in Grand Forks this year, no crowd for home court but at least we know we match up with them and the SD schools.
