USD (KP 264) comes to Grand Forks Thursday after getting hammered at home against NDSU. They seem to be struggling to find their identity and who’s going to take control of the minutes and like UND, prefer not to play defense. Their adjusted defensive efficiency (358) is actually 8 spots below us. They do, however, have a more efficient offense than ours. 

This is the final trip Paul Bruns will make to Grand Forks, unless the NCAA decides to allow people to play forever. He sits at 1-3 against UND in his career. Would say his career maybe didn’t pan out quite how he envisioned after winning Freshman of the Year. Hard to say he regrets the move though as he does get to play basically in his hometown and with his brother. 

Other than Paul, you have 3 other guards to keep an eye on. #12 Isaac Bruns, Paul’s brother, #9 Chase Forte and #1 Kaleb Stewart. All 3 are double digit scorers. 

Hope we can continue some momentum from the KC game. It is dollar dog night so come hungry for some hot dogs. Hopefully they figure out how to sling them quickly. KenPom has UND as 2 point favorites with a score of 90-88 (defense optional).

HUGE mistake by the UND athletic department moving games to Midco/Summit League stream.  It was so nice to be able to check in/ watch for free on the ESPN app.   

Also the Midco Sports Plus app sucks

Midco deal is terrible for the league.

Nobody has been particularly great at defense this season to be fair to Mara haha 

Haha true but he is the worst on a already bad defensive team 😂 I'm most disappointed in Amar this year. Missing lay ups. Not getting boards like he did last year. Not much of a presence in the middle
