Northern Iowa at Wichita State - Wed 2/8

Down to an 8 point lead at the half.

I can't believe the MVC is still so cheap that they give local hotels free commercials just for letting the announcers and crew sleep there.

At least they stay at the Mariott here in Wichita....probably one of the 5 best hotels in town. Where do they stay in Cedar Falls as I can't imagine there is much of a selection?

I figured the Shox would let them back in the middle of the second half like they normally do. They decided to do it at the end of the first half.

I don't doubt that the Mariott in Wichita is nice... I just think it's an odd thing to do. I think they still stay at the Holiday Inn in Cedar Falls, which is really crappy. There are a bunch of newer places to say. Personally, I'd stay at the Isle of Capri in Waterloo if I was spending the night in Cedarloo.

UNI played a pretty good half, quite frankly. WSU was just absolutely unconscious from 3. Painful to watch them rain 3's like that.

Game was almost out of reach after 10 min, but UNI ended on a big run to give us a glimmer of hope for the 2nd half.

The Marriott is nice, but getting old. What do you expect from the Valley? Hey give us two free rooms and we will let you run a couple of spots. What hotel wouldn't do that especially on a Wednesday night when they are half booked? Keeps us from seeing two more Casey's Convience store pizza commercials. Do people really go to a gas station to get a pizza they could get for the same price as some of the national chains?

Joe Ragland, while calling his own plays the last 3 minutes of the half, in order to display his awesomeness, has led UNI on a 13-0 run to close out the half.

Casey's does have better pizza than Papa John's...

The announcers are all over Stutz when Murry is the one killing it this half...

We have gone really cold. We like to do this jump way behind, come back a little bit, crap down the leg for a little bit, and finally make it look a little more respectable in the end.

but it's Stutz that is opening everything up. Tuttle is good, but not big enough or experienced enough to guard him and Stutz is killing UNI out of the double team. He's the second best player in the Valley.

UNI stopped going down low and they went cold.
