Is Olaf the coach for St. Olaf? Anna the president of the school? (Hoping people with children understand)

My husband went to St. Olaf, and while I cannot vouch for the quality of the basketball program, they do have one of the all-time great college fight songs. "We're fast and we're furious; our team is injurious... Um ya ya ya!"

It's no "This Is Indiana," but pretty good for a MIAC school. https://youtu.be/zYsko2uqVew

Chattanooga/Belmont tipping off.  Really good mid major game.  De Sousa  from Kansas plays for Chattanooga.   

Marshall is at Ohio tonight.   One of those games that will have an impact on IU’s SOS.   Ohio is 83 in the Net so if Marshall wins on the road they should move up in the NET.

Howard just subbed 5 new players into the game and they haven’t even made it to the under 16 timeout.  The game was tied at 7 with Georgetown at the time.  The unit was  playing good.  Georgetown scores the next 6 to go up 6.   Lol

Fake news.. I thought you meant Juan Howard so I went and look for the game. THEN I figured ESPN just used his name instead of Michigan as it didn't really matter..... Well crap, it's actually Howard.. Just like you said.  :(

Belmont wins it.  Nice win for them at home.   

[Uspshoosier]

This Ohio has been impressive every time I  have watched them.   They gave Kentucky a battle until Kentucky pulled away in the second half and they won at Belmont.  
 

Ohio up 15 with 14 min to go.  I thought they would of taken a step back after Preston went pro but they haven’t

How about Nicholls showing Wisky how to do it. 30-22 Nichols 5:12 left 1st half.

Davis is out sick but that’s no excuse to be down to Nicholls

Marshall has cut this to 7 with 4:35 to go.  Ohio doesn’t miss many foul shots

I hope it's a long nagging non traumatic ingrown toenail that last all season, but Nicholls is balling !

Marshall down 5 with 2 min to go.  They just keep shooting

“Their (Wisconsin’s) only good second half was that second half against Indiana.”

Ugh.

Huge 3 by Ohio and then a nice block at the other end. Looks like Ohio is going to win it

Ugh. 

Not the publicity I wanted us to get... sad.

Crazy thing is if they lose this game it won’t effect their NET ranking.  NET only takes in account D1 opponents. Unless that changed with the new changes for this year 

Yep.  Play a non-D1 opponent and your SOS doesn't go down.  Play the 350th ranked D1 team and it tumbles.

But I do believe on the team sheets they do not include non-D1 wins and losses.

Ugh. 

While they are at it, why not shot the Blake Hoffaberger shot?

They still show up on the team sheets they just don’t count for or against a team

Shocking -- Wisconsin coming back and the fouls are Nicholl's State 5, Wisky 0 in the second half.

[RaceToTheTop]

7 minutes into the half -- Wisky within four and fouls are Nicholl's State 7, Wisky 0.  Previous possession Nicholl's State player grabs the rebound, gets slapped across the wrist....they call jump ball.  Wisconsin next possession, Nicholl's State plays good defense, Wisconsin throws the ball over the line....phantom foul on Nicholl's State.

Wisky missed free throw, put back, ANOTHER foul call on Nicholl's.  Miss free throw, another put back, 46-46.  Wisky just scored a bucket to go up 48-46.

And the fousl are now 8-0.  And as I type it, another foul on Nicholl's called because apparantley if a Wisky player falls down, it's a Nicholls State foul.

[RaceToTheTop]

Wisky 52, Nicholl's 50, 8:29 left.

Nicholl's State 11 fouls, Wisky none.
