Redbirds @ Evansville 1/10 1:00 PM ESPN3

[ISU86]

Evansville -5 | 130 1/2 Illinois State
Missouri State -3 | 142 1/2 at Valparaiso
Northern Iowa -3 | 138 1/2 Bradley
Loyola-Chicago -8 | 138 1/2 Indiana State

UNI are favorites over Bradley? Must be due to the layoff.

I would imagine Evansville will be better prepared to attack the zone and I would hope we have made some adjustments offensively. I think the game today will be similar but a bit higher scoring. Hopefully we can salvage a road win which has been extremely difficult the past two years for ISU.

I think if we can get some points off turnovers, we have a chance to win today. There is no need to change too much defensively, but our guards need to take it to another level. If we rely on our halfcourt offense, we are in big trouble. Just my opinion again.

The people who drink the Redbird Kool-Aid never cease to amaze.

ISU shot 40% from the free throw line. The aces made 100% of theirs. How can a D1 team shoot a 40% FT avg.?

Send Dusan to the line

Stats is just indicating how they have a chance. Personally I agree they do better when they push the tempo and stay out of the grind half court game. Our guards get better shots and the turnovers are about the same.

BTW they had a chance to win yesterday with a about a 5 minute drought to end each half. Its conceivable they could win. Even the statisticians give ISU a 45% chance on the road.

At this point I don't think anyone is drinking kool-aid or even supports Dan. Literally nobody but his wife. Some of us like me are just more outspoken. Some just choose not to bash. My opinion is that the louder the call for a firing the more likely it'll happen so I choose to speak. Neither option is right or wrong. The only annoying part is the people who don't bash wrongly think they're on some moral high ground when everyone is equal. That's the only difference.

Going same pick as yesterday ... UE 73, ISU 66

I think you can "support" Dan but still acknowledge a poor storyline ~ they are not mutually exclusively

I picked ISU finishing 9th in the conference and Evansville to finish last. By me saying what we would have to do to even have a chance to beat Evansville(imo), I'm not sure that makes me a Kool-Aid drinker.

Reeves with the airball on the layup.

 

[Redbird222]

For a big guy Dusan get pushed around easily. Nice drive to the basket and spin move though.

 

[Redbird222]

Boyd with a 3 and Birds up 13 - 6. He has played much better this year in my opinion.

 

[Redbird Alum 2004]

Birds looking good on both ends so far.

 

[Bird Friend]

21-13 @ 7:20. We have 3 fouls, unfortunately they’re all on Horne. D has been really good. Hitting a lull offensively again, tho.

 

[Adunk33]

I think Sissoko is going to be a very good player in the MVC. He’s a freshman.
Defense once again playing well. Can’t afford the lull of yesterday. Offense is playing within themselves and not trying to do too much.
Abdou is doing a nice job altering shots, you can tell UE isn’t comfortable shooting around him.

 

[Bird Friend]

Can’t let EU get hot from 3.

If it’s donors, absolutely correct. If it’s message board posters, it doesn’t make a difference in any athletic department.
