83-76 Belmont, under 4 TO

on behalf of ISU I apologize to the rest of the MVC for this PATHETIC performance from ISU tonight, how you go from a 16 point halftime lead to losing by double digits is UNEXCUSEABLE

they made adjustments, we didn't and the result is an embarrassing collapse from ISU

96-95 Belmont is the final as a furious rally comes up just short. ISU had the ball down 1 with about 5 seconds left, Odum drove but couldn't get the shot to go down, looked like there was some contact.

I wouldn't be too concerened about losing that game by one point. Trees came back at the end and had a chance to win the game. If anything to be concerned about it would be that you let a team score 96 points. This game won't effect the trees chance to do very well in the Valley. It's hell to win on the road anywhere.

the problem is we should have NEVER even been in that predicament in the 1st place! We had a SIXTEEN point halftime lead, we completely quit playing defense in the 2nd half, this is the SAME CRAP we witnessed in the end of season collapses the past 2 seasons, nothing has changed. Get a big lead, quit playing defense, other team comes back and wins game. Inexcusable performance.

Trees will learn from this. Belmont a good program and I thought they would be a good addition to the valley

This kind of forces ISU into an at-large corner already. Probably have to get one of their roadies at Notre Dame or St Louis now.

I agree. This is so early in the season I wouldn't get too concerned about losing my 1 point on the road to a very good program. Keep your head up; you have one of the best coaches in the league and I'm sure he will use the 16 point lead evaporation and why it happened as a learning tool. Greg is no one's dummy.

Wish the Trees could have pulled this out but thanks for at least covering for me.
