LittleHurt05 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Dec 11, 2009 -> 09:04 AM) I think it's safe to say UCLA is having a worse season so far. Yes, Iowa lost to UT-SA, but UT-SA is at least 7-2 on the season. UCLA has lost to Cal St. Fullerton(no offense Jason), Portland, and Long Beach State. Those teams are a whopping 12-10 on the season. Thats true, although UCLA did barely lose to Butler on two last second free throws and they hung around with Kansas for a while. Their start to the season has been worse, but I think over the course of the year they will turn out to be a better basketball team than Iowa. Long Beach State actually has a pretty tough schedule so far too. Luckily, neither team has to face Illinois State, what a bloodbath that would be!!!

I know you are just poking fun at us, but ISU would beat either UCLA or Iowa. I think they would handle Iowa rather easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Iowa currently leads Craig Brackins 30-24. Unfortunately for Iowa, Iowa St. also has other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Definition of a home court win for Butler. Tough to watch without Turner, it probably would have been a double digit win. Dammit, just stay afloat long enough to get into the tourney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Gophers beat up on St. Joseph's today to the tune of a 97-74 win. Blake Hoffarber is gaining my faith in him back game by game, this time scoring 20 points including some excellent shooting, while Ralph Sampson actually looked like the player we were hoping he would be this year. Granted, it was against a team with no real inside presence, but I can be hopeful about that, right?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev211 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Illinois State's first real test tomorrow(today) at Redbird Arena vs Niagara in the return game from last years bracketbuster's in which Niagara embarrassed us on National TV. Comcast channel 102 2pm in the Chicagoland area if any of you want to see an ISU game for once. I expect a win, but wouldn't be shocked if we lost because our play has been sloppy all year.

kev211 Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Theres how many mid majors in the nation? 220+? Ya and Niagara is ranked 11th http://www.collegeinsider.com/mmpoll/ So one of the better mid majors fits I'd say. Definitely a solid team. Instead of looking at their record why don't you watch them play. I didn't spin anything either we lost, because we played sloppy. I said bad calls didn't help but you can't let the refs beat you.
