A pair of unexpected wins to start Saturday. Daughty & Daughtry put up a lot of points for Indiana St.

A pair of unexpected wins to start Saturday. Daughty & Daughtry put up a lot of points for Indiana St.

I jinxed Missouri St. Bears squander a 13-point lead w/ <4 mins left and 6-point lead w/ <45 seconds left.

MO State did have a 99% win probability at the time of my post.

Missouri St misses a FT up 3 in OT with a few seconds left and Tulsa hits a 3 at the buzzer to force Double OT.

‘99 Sabres/Stars territory as Tulsa/Missouri St enter Triple Overtime.

Racers get a nice road win at MTSU - 88-67. The line favored Middle, but we knew better

Lindsay comes off Murray’s bench to put up 27/8/4. That team is scary. Racers get to the rim very efficiently.

Interesting looking at Murray’s opponents.

The Pitt team Murray lost to:
- Beat Radford by 40, who’s 3-1 beating Evansville by 11/Old Dominion by 12/William&Mary by 12
- Beat WVU by 24, who’s 2-1 beating UMass by 6 & Robert Morris by 28
- Beat Gardner-Webb by 19, who’s 2-2 with a 16-pt loss to Tennessee

The Middle Tennessee team Murray just pounded by 21:
- Beat Abilene Christian by 23, who beat Texas St by 12 in their only other D1 game
- Beat Evansville by 17

It sounds like you're suggesting the Purple Aces aren't very good.

And I think you're right. Today's game was embarrassing, especially on the defensive side. Leading by 18 at halftime, just to lose by 11.

Really good win for Murray. Looks like the MVC will finally see the Racers as they used to be. Maybe not as good - but playing the same way as Prohm's good teams.

Congrats to Matthew Graves on his first Sycs win. Still probably not a good team but still, a win.

My eyes hurt after watching MSU and Tulsa.

Bradley handled NIU as expected. The Braves don't defend nearly as well as they have in the past which is a potential issue. As is the penchant for turning the ball over WAY too much. But they do score and have a ton of weapons.
