danman31 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 11, 2012 -> 02:00 PM) My best friend is in town and they won't let him in without an ID, even though we have a ticket. Yeah they started enforcing that stronger while I was there. It's pretty annoying. You used to be able to sell student section football tickets to anyone, but in 07 or 08 they made you have an ID for those spots as well. Really hurts the resell market haha.

Heads22 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Texas A&M is just awful to watch offensively. On the bright side, Iowa State is now tied with Baylor for third in the Big 12 with a game in Waco on Monday night that should be pretty good.

Baylor is playing on low confidence, but it would take something special for the Clones to win in Waco. Iowa State's tourney hopes hinge on their final 3 conference games.

Thing is they're so damn athletic and talented that they can overwhelm most of their opponents, and unfortunately for Heads, I agree with you, can't see the Clones winning in Waco.

If we win just two more home games we're not in the worst shape. It's all about defending the home court. I have a tough time seeing a 20-11 (10-8) team that finishes fourth in the Big 12 being kept out. That being said, I still see us splitting with Baylor.

Baylor's zone today seemed like a concession that they couldn't win in Columbia unless Mizzou shot poorly. Playing zone against four guards means they will shoot a lot of threes. Maybe that works in your favor if Mizzou doesn't shoot well, but it didn't work out. Drew pretty much put Mizzou in control of the game for better or worse.

Kyyle23 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Just for all of the SIU fans and alum in this thread, this was taken from salukitalk.net where a poster named goroshnik has been keeping tabs on the historical marks the Salukis have hit this season Time to update the list, since the records just keep on falling. And with today's effort, we're now making NATIONAL record books, not just ones for next year's media guide. Here's the season summary: OHIO DOMINICAN This D-II team beats SIU for their first ever win over a D-1 school in 9 tries. It's SIU's first loss at home to a non-D1 school since SIU lost at home to SEMO in December of 1982 (SEMO didn't turn D-1 until 1991), and before that, there was a home loss to California State-Los Angeles back in December of 1969. To make things worse, as of February 11th, ODU is 3-20 on the season and is winless at 0-17 in their conference. Their other two wins this year were against Lourdes and Mercy (really... Lourdes and Mercy!?!?!) ST. LOUIS The Dawgs shoot an alltime low of 20.5 percent (8-39) in the loss. This blows away the previous mark of 24.2 percent, set back in January of 1982. Shooting 4-22 in the first half, SIU's 18.2 percent is tied for the second worst shooting half in team history, behind only the disastrous 2003 MVC Championship Final against Creighton when SIU shot 15.6 in the first half. SIU's 15 first half points were the lowest since that abysmal 13-point first half at Illinois State in January of 2008, and the 15 points are tied for the fifth-fewest points in a half since 1950. The 42 total points were the lowest since SIU put up 41 at Western Michigan in December of 2007, and it's tied for the fifth-lowest scoring game in SIU history since 1950. NORTHEASTERN The Salukis fall to 0-3 for the first time since 1963, when Jack Hartman challenged his college-level team against bigger competition, losing four consecutive road games to Indiana, Oklahoma State, Toledo and Ohio. WESTERN KENTUCKY The Hilltoppers win at SIU for the first time in 23 years. The Dawgs shoot just 20 percent in the first half - that's tied for the fifth-worst shooting half in SIU history... They score just 14 points in the first half, which is among the five lowest scoring halves in SIU history... Oh, and they did all of this against a team that was previously 0-7 against D-1 teams this year. After this game, SIU's RPI of #341 is the worst ranking ever for the school since the RPI was devised in 1981. At this point in the season, among all 344 D-1 teams, SIU is in the bottom ten in assist-turnover ratio, assists per game, total FG attempted, total rebounds, total defensive rebounds, total points, total assists, 3-pt percentage, fg percentage, total made fg, and total 3-pointers made. WESTERN MICHIGAN SIU's total of 14 points in the first half is among the five worst ever point totals in the first half in SIU history, and the 20 percent shooting percentage in the first half is tied for the fifth worst in any half ever. SIU's total of 43 points is among the ten lowest scoring games in SIU history. CLEMSON SIU blows an 8-point lead in the final 3:30 of regulation and also blows a 3-point lead in the final seconds when a Clemson player is fouled going to the hoop. After the bucket and FT, SIU fails to get a decent shot off at the end of regulation and loses in overtime. Lowery's last four OT games in his career have ended in losses, and his alltime record in OT games falls to 3-10. XAVIER In the loss to Xavier, SIU piles up 28 fouls, so the Musketeers pile up 48 FT attempts, which is the fourth most by an SIU opponent in history. The 36 made FTs by Xavier are the fifth most by an SIU opponent in history. EVANSVILLE The Aces put up 48 points in the first half to lead by 21 at the break. SIU never gets closer than 13 points the rest of the way. But hey, no records were set in this one. WICHITA STATE Another big hole to climb out of... after falling behind by 19 points early in the second half, SIU eventually cuts it down to 5 points before withering in the end and losing by 10 at home. Nothing historical here, but just mentioning the increasingly frequent "get into a big hole and try to come back" theme of this year's team. MISSOURI STATE Another big hole to climb out of... after falling behind 37-16 late in the first half, SIU comes all the way back to within two, but never ties or goes into the lead. Another double digit-loss on the road. CREIGHTON The Jays beat SIU for the eighth straight time, holding a comfortable double-digit lead for the last 10 minutes of the game. SIU gives up 90 points for the first time since January of 2005. DRAKE SIU once again fails to get a decent shot at the end of this one, forcing the game into OT. Another overtime loss for Lowery - he's now lost 7 of his last eight overtime games and is 3-11 overall in his career. WICHITA STATE The 85-42 loss is the second-worst margin of defeat in Saluki history. Only a 46-point loss to Evansville in 1981 was worse. The 42 total points scored - among the ten lowest scoring games ever. The 16 points in the first half - among the ten lowest scoring first halves ever. The Shockers score a stunning 56 points in the paint. ILLINOIS STATE SIU's 40 point output is the second worst in school history, only ahead of a 36-point performance in 1981. After 30 minutes of gametime, SIU had only 19 points. SIU had to score 21 points in the last 10 minutes just to get to 40. The 17-point first half is NOT among the ten worst in SIU history, only because all the other low-scoring first halves this season have pushed that 17-point total out of the top ten (or bottom ten, if you will). INDIANA STATE The Sycamores establish an NCAA alltime record by shooting a perfect 12 for 12 from the 3-pt line. The 12 bombs are tied for the 6th most given up by the Salukis in team history. The 80 percent shooting by Indiana State in the second half (12 makes in 15 attempts) ties the alltime record for shooting percentage by a team in a half against SIU. With the loss, SIU has lost at least 18 games in back-to back seasons for the first time in school history. The 37 combined losses over the last two seasons are tied for the most over a two-year span in school history. This, my friends, is what you get when "if you want Gonzaga results, you need to pay Gonzaga money" you overspend on a coach who won without his own guys.
