sprig Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 66-61 SCSU final, SC didn't miss over the last 9 minutes, while the Sioux struggled to score. Quote
GeauxSioux Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 Wow. Talk about a collapse. I walked away from the computer when the Sioux were up by 15, as I thought they had it won. Looking at the bright side, at least they got the loss to SCSU out of the way before regionals. Quote
UND92,96 Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 Wow. Talk about a collapse. I walked away from the computer when the Sioux were up by 15, as I thought they had it won. Looking at the bright side, at least they got the loss to SCSU out of the way before regionals. With the way the Sioux played over the last 8-9 minutes, I think they would have lost tonight regardless of who they were playing. SCSU is still the worst team in the league, tonight's game notwithstanding. UND won't have to play them in the regional, because SCSU won't be in it. But what tonight's game does show is that the margin for error between UND and everybody else isn't large enough to win without playing relatively well. I don't know whether losing to an average team like SCSU makes it easier or more difficult to take than losing to a really good team like Augie or USD? Quote
proudsioux Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 Hate to be at genes practice tomorrow. Quote
Dagger Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 The women were probably due to lose one. It might not be all bad. Quote

dakotadan Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 In the Feb. 5th Sports Illustrated, Kierah Kimbrough is the top person in the Faces in the Crowd. (Zach Parise was just in the SI issue that revisited 50 previous Faces in the Crowd and where they are now) Quote
Siouxperb Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 SI article Here's the link to the Sports Illustrated "Faces in the Crowd" Congratulations Kierah! Quote
Smoggy Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 In the Feb. 5th Sports Illustrated, Kierah Kimbrough is the top person in the Faces in the Crowd. (Zach Parise was just in the SI issue that revisited 50 previous Faces in the Crowd and where they are now) Matt Greene was recently in as well with a picture of him fighting. Though you couldn't see his head, just the helmet in the air. It was on the same page as Apocalypse Now. Quote
UND92,96 Posted February 3, 2007 Posted February 3, 2007 From Ryan Bakken's blog today: Then the women's BB is upset by St. Cloud after leading by 16 points. What's amazing about this program is how successful it is, yet also about how it blows more big leads than Inspector Clouseau. This program plays outstanding basketball, but can't right its emotional ship when a game starts going badly. The tendency to "play scared" in big games is its only flaw. The win probably revives St. Cloud's playoff hopes. And the Sioux didn't want to see their recent nemesis in the field. I don't really agree about reviving St. Cloud's playoff hopes, as regardless of Thursday's game I still think they have to win the conference tournament to get in. Will they, away from home? Highly, highly doubtful. They're just not that good. Touting them as a post season threat reminds me to an extent of people doing the same to the late 90's Bison teams. Some Sioux fans/media were wary of them because of the success of past teams, but the truth was they just weren't very good. UND may very well lose in the post season, but I don't see it being to St. Cloud. Quote
4siouxnow Posted February 7, 2007 Author Posted February 7, 2007 Women only dropped 1 spot in the poll this week with the loss, that's good, How Missouri Western got more 1st place votes after getting beat themselves makes no sense, and the Florida school is in their last year of DII and will be DI next year. Should be a great set of games this week, I am guessing that Gene will have them ready from the get go, after a few days of practice and last weeks reality check. Quote

UND92,96 Posted February 8, 2007 Posted February 8, 2007 It sounds like Beck is out for tonight with an injury. I have no idea how long she's expected to be out. Maffin also is somewhat hobbled, and Guinn has been sick, although both will likely play. Hopefully Bagaason can provide some scoring to offset Beck's absence. Quote

BigGreyAnt41 Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 WOW...nice clear picture. Where is the audio? It's not in there, you have to open up two streaming media windows, one for video, one for audio. Pretty mad delay with the audio, though. Quote
SiouxMD Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 It's not in there, you have to open up two streaming media windows, one for video, one for audio. Pretty mad delay with the audio, though. The picture gets poor on "Full Screen" mode... Please tell me that audio and video will be synched in the future... Quote
Smoggy Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 The picture gets poor on "Full Screen" mode... Please tell me that audio and video will be synched in the future... It would be nice if there was a size between there itty bitty one and the full screen. Quote
BigGreyAnt41 Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 The picture gets poor on "Full Screen" mode... Please tell me that audio and video will be synched in the future... Well, hopefully for hockey they put them in the same stream. Quote

Smoggy Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 The women are playing ugly. Lots of turnovers and not making outside shots. Quote
dakotadan Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 Not looking good. Auggie 74 UND 65 The ladies can't get much to drop, especially free throws. Quote

Siouxperb Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 Lost the audio with 1 minute to play-Is that for real??? Not that it made a difference but after listening to the entire game to that point it was very frustrating!! Quote
