MVC Non-Conference Games

[another shocker]

From what I am noticing UNI does a great job on D of collapsing, There is always two guys in your face if your trying to take a shot in the paint. Great D so far

Every time. Disciplined on defense there.

UNI was down, what 11-3 early, Louisville slamming it, but UNI didn't let it get away.

UNI could greatly benefit from the occasional shot fake on the perimeter. Louisville always flies out at them, and the UNI guys have been altering their shot to get it over those long arms and have missed embarrassingly badly on half a dozen threes. A quick head fake would leave them with a wide open look.

Also don't know why Louisville would be the worst performing #2 ranked team of all time? They've won by 28, 26, and beat John Cooper's Miami (OH) team by 41 so far this year. I think they've looked about ten times better than #1 Indiana.

There certainly is a lot of parody in college basketball this year, though. Nobody in the top 10 holds a candle to, say, last year's UK team or the 2009 UNC squad.

I'm afraid UNI is only going to be able to muck it up so much.

Laugher line of the night; "UNI may be able to win with their size and athleticism in their conference, but not against Louisville".

That was a good one from the NBCS staff.

This is a good post GoShockers89 and I don't like to correct. However, if you look up parody, you'll find that it is also called a spoof, or lampoon, etc. I think you mean parity. :)
Carry on.

I wonder if Cox or NBCS is the reason all I see is a black screen.

Louisville now playing with UNI's intensity. That doesn't bode well for the Panthers.

Dion Mitchell was a heck of a get for UNI. He's going to be a heck of player for the Panthers for the next 3 years.

Looking forward for a moment, UNI better win this season. They lose Koch, Sonnen, James & Pehl (no great loss there). They will struggle big time next season.

UNI's size and athleticism? This is a good warmup game for UNI to prepare for what WSU will show them.

UNI getting into flop mode now. They may yet still have a run in them.

Pressure D finally getting to UNI now. Makes me think, Thank God (!) we have Armstead running the point.

UNI - 7 minutes without a score - now down 15 at 37-22. UNI might not make it to 40 with the way they're playing now.

Droid auto-correct, at least this one was G-rated.

You do have to admire the UNI kids. They play hard and believe in their system. They don't have the athletes, talent or money to compete, but they don't believe it.

Is that Jerry Buss' grandson?

Serious question....Does UNI have a weight facility? Our volleyball players have bigger guns.

I just realized this game is in the 2nd half. I would have swore that a 40-26 score was 1 half of play.
