Barnes made it close with his threes tonight.

Ugh, a win it is but not pretty.

 

[V Boy]

The Big 3 brought it. Need more from Tinsley tomorrow to advance.

 

[Bird Friend]

Same old same old....

Yep, every freakin game ends up at the same situation with 3 minutes to go...........

As long as same ol’ same ol’ ends with a W, it’s all good.

 

[DBird]

Well Illinois is guaranteed a NCAA team this year!

 

[TN-Bird]

brut forced our way to victory.

ISU does three things in this game and they win:

1) Keep Indiana St. to 30% 3FG or less
2) +2 or better on rebounds
3) Keep turnovers under 13 (Yarbrough 4 or less)

Really need Madison Williams to step up on the defensive end tonight. He might be the key to the game.

I'm guessing Indiana St. is going to put a guard on Yarbrough to take away the dribble drive.....and double him in the post. He has got to maintain his composure and make the right pass. He starts throwing it around it's game over.

#1 - check (24%)
#2 - close enough (even)
#3 - check (10 overall and Yarb with 2)

Winner

Y'all are talking about how tired our guys are AND IN THE SAME BREATH cursing Dan for playing our bench.

Hilarious.

Well done Dan and the boys. Now get 2 more.

Hope Evans is ok. He is going to be hurting tomorrow morning. Ice that puppy down and elevate!

 

[TN-Bird]

yep. well done indeed - I'll take it.

 

[V Boy]

Wonder if Jordan Barnes stays at INS. He could easily start major P5. He’s better than any guard on IU.

I have said this often this year...Yarbrough IS THE BEST PLAYER IN THE MVC! He willed this team to a win! Plus only 2 turnovers to go w 5 assists. And money at the line! Big 3 were good. Madison didn’t have a great offensive game but he worked his ass off on D. I will gladly take this win and March on!

 

[Chicagobirdfan]

Good win. Gave us a scare but played a solid game. If MY doesn’t get 2 quick fouls he may have gone for 40, they could not touch him when he went to the rim. Play like this and we should win tomorrow..

Other stats: though Boogie didn’t shoot it well he was second leading rebounder w 8. Only 3 turnovers the second half. And David gave us some valuable minutes. Considering the foul trouble we were in it was an especially nice win over a team that always plays us tough. I will gladly take it.

Agreed on all these points.
