Arch Madness championship game thread - Illinois St vs UNI

Congrats to UNI on the win. They will now go back to being mediocre for a few years until some other overlooked kid dominates as a senior.


It's a shame no team ever figured out to flop against Tuttle. He would foul out by half time if teams defended UNI the way they play defense.

Congrats to the Panthers on the title and saving some face for the league.

Good luck to the Redbirds in the CBI.

I think the win over WSU along with the championship appearance locked us in to the NIT. I would be surprised if we didn't get in to that.

Don't take a shot at UNI. They beat us fair and square. We blew a tire in the 2nd half. We left them open on the perimeter way too much. Nice to finally see this ISU team realize the value of driving and hitting the open guy on the perimeter. We will be better next year. Teams still young.

No shot. Jacobsen wins with overlooked talent. The team also flops. It caused them lose minimal games and won them a conference championship. I think there are about 8 fan bases that would take those comments about their teams right now.

Don't worry I fixed it for u. Hopefully we can make a run and build momentum towards next year just like Wichita did a couple years ago to take the next step .

All the flavors in the world...and you choose salt.

The comeback in the face of adversity by UNI is the mark of a champion...congrats! I did think Arch Madness and the "fatigue factor" impacted ISU red inside the 8 min mark. The UE game & Shox upset took a helluva lot out of 'em. The 'Birds are N.I.T. bound...

Great tournament everybody! The only real sleeper/blowout was Loyola/Indiana State. The Sycamores had the ISU red "8 min legs" from the tipoff v. Loyola...maybe Lansing should've given them the whole week off instead of the 3 dayz (post Bradley MVC reg last game)!

Why am I not surprised by your comments?

Good game Panthers way to come out and make your shots the 2nd half and turn up the level of intensity. Best of luck in the tournament we'll be pulling for u guys!

A nice comment unlike the one from your brother just below.

The rationale for your poor sportsmanship is almost astonishing, but not surprising from a Redbird poster.
