Indiana State at Drake

by **isumvc1** » February 2nd, 2013, 8:23 am

Big game today for the Sycamores, a "must win" if ISU wants to keep their name in the hat for an at-large bid. A loss would probably end talks for an at-large bid unless we were to sweep CU and WSU at home.

Drake has shown signs of being a very good team (see Creighton win). We need to guard the 3 point line. If Drake hits from long range look out.

Drake needs to limit turnovers, I see they had quite a few the other night. ISU needs to crash the boards and hit FT's. Our FT shooting has been sporadically good and bad.

I don't know that the game is on TV anywhere? It's the last MVC game of the day today, later tonight.

Fox sports will have the game. Sycamores play down to their competition. Tree fans may need a :buddies:

after this one. Hope for the leagues sake they get it done but I smell a bulldog victory.

Depends which Drake team shows up. Bulldogs look really good some nights and unbelievably bad on others.

ISU tends to play at the level of the competition, if we do that tonight this game will come down to the last possession. It will be no different than many other ISU games this season.

Ind St up 2 at the half. Ricks just hit a half court shot at the buzzer to cut it to 2. A pretty entertaining half of play. Simons was pretty good for Drake and Gant was a really active guy for Ind. St.

Trees got screwed on that last inbounds play in the corner. I guess what goes around...

You mean when Hines had two guys on his back pushing him out of bounds?

At-large discussion is now over for ISUb barring them essentially winning out.
