Critical for me to see how they bounce back today against a pretty darn good team.  Unfortunately, I won't be able to watch or listen so I'm counting on you guys for a solid game report that I can read later tonight.

Unfortunately, I will be M.I.A. for this one- gotta finish (ok, gotta start) shopping for my wife, lol.

Team(s) are having success and he’s nowhere to be found. One of the teams lose or looks bad and he’s all over it, like clockwork.

I mean, I can understand being upset about the loss. That was a bad, bad loss yesterday. A Big Ten program, men's or women's, should never lose to a SWAC opponent. Those teams spend the majority of the non-conference season playing unwinnable games just so they can pay their bills. It really concerned me yesterday how we couldn't keep their guards out of the paint. That doesn't bode well moving forward.

 

From the macro-view, the program is the healthiest it's been in a long time, maybe ever. I wish our attendance was better, but the women's team will never in a million years be as popular as the men's team; just the way it is. I think people may still be upset that we were robbed of seeing what Curt Miller could have done here.

Man, you need to get your priorities straight.  You've still got the weekend and part of Monday, what's your hurry?

Coach must have drop ceilings in her office?

I wouldn't mind winning the WNIT again. That was a lot more fun than getting housed by UConn in the Sweet 16, which is probably our ceiling as a program.

Wbb is changing, that is not any programs ceiling anymore. Oregon and miss st were nobodies 5 years ago..our budget is comparable to what those schools spend on recruiting, gear, travel, stipends ect. 

 

I know it's fun to watch us beat a bunch of ncaa tourney rejects at home, but I have higher aspirations for this team

[ccgeneral]

The usual starters. Patberg, Yeaney, Penn, Wise and Royster.

South Dakota 10-8 under 5. Patberg with 2 quick fouls.

[ccgeneral]

South Dakota 22-13 end of Q1. Another rough start.

[ccgeneral]

Our bench gets a T.

[TheWatShot]

Somebody on our bench just got T'd up for arguing a no-call on a travel where we came up with the ball anyway.

 

This team is a mess right now.

[TheWatShot]

South Dakota just picking us apart.

[ccgeneral]

South Dakota 34-26 @ half. It's gonna be hard to get back in this one.

7-23 FG

2-6 3FG

10-13 FT

8 turnovers

 

 

[TheWatShot]

Not sure who's keeping track of stats, but no way did we only have 8 turnovers in the first half.

[ccgeneral]

We have a little spark. Down 2.

[ccgeneral]

Gulbe for 3 and the lead! 41-39 with 3:23 left in the 3rd.

[ccgeneral]

IU 49-45 end of Q3. Much better. Let's go girls!

[TheWatShot]

#11 for South Dakota pushes off with her forearm every time she drives. They got her for it earlier in the game but she's done it 3 times since then with no call and created enough space to get a shot off.

[ccgeneral]

Royster has been solid today.

[ccgeneral]

Boom! Patberg for 3. Up 9 with 2:30 left.
