Redbirds v Greenville 12/2 5:00 PM ESPN3

[Automatic Slim]

Damn the style of game, it's good just to see the 'Birds eat for a change.

 

[ISU86]

MVC teams will look at this film and realize that it will be worth the gamble to put a full court press on for a few possessions against ISU. I find it hard to believe there were not ANY D1 schools willing to play tonight.

maybe not on the road

 

[ISU86]

ten 'birds in double figures

 

[Trey_Guidry4three]

What a joke of a game!!! Where is the defense..... seriously I don't care how many points you put up this is just unacceptable

 

[Metamoron]

So what would the score had been if Bob Donewald had been coach? Probably 90-20.

 

[DoubleDeuce]

Sissoko

Come again?

 

[Bird Friend]

I pick Washington as the leading scorer of the game.

Ding, ding, ding! Winner!

 

[SgtHulka]

Who is doing the scoring? Probably everyone, but who is the leader?

Washington had 30. Everyone else except the two walk ons scored in double figures

 

[ISU FAN 1]

ISU sets NCAA record for FG% at 86.4% and assists with 57. I’ll take that spot in the record books, regardless of the optics of the game.

Why did it have to be a home game?

Why did it have to be a home game?

Bradley and UNI have 4 games scheduled between now and conference play. We have 2. Anywhere, anytime. Play.

Do you have a source for this? And does it matter that the team they played against was D3?

Wjbc said they believe that both are records but unsure if d3 counts

Gorebirds.com confirmed

NORMAL, Ill. – Numerous records fell by the wayside for the Illinois State Redbirds in their win over Greenville, by a 177-108 margin, which set NCAA Division I records in total field goal percentage (84.3 percent) and assists (57), while also setting a new Illinois State and MVC points in a game record, and the point total is the fourth-highest single-game scoring total in NCAA Division I history, while the Redbirds' 84.3 field goal percentage (70-of-83) and 57 assists are new NCAA Division I records.

 

[Bird Friend]

I can't believe we actually missed 13 shots . . .

 

[isuquinndog]

Fourth highest score in D1 history? Wow.

 

[bombay]

The Redbirds are getting some good national publicity.

Illinois State races to NCAA, school records in rout over Division III Greenville

It was fun, fun, fun on the run, run, run for Illinois State as the Redbirds set several school scoring records in a rout over Division III Greenville.

Not sure it did us a lot of good except in a couple of areas. Working against a press and our 3 point shooting. However it appeared the kids really had fun. After all they ARE kids/young men and having fun in the break from a grind is ok in my book.

This!! In this weird crappy covid year I will take high scoring fun all day every day. In the grand scheme of things it's a game. I enjoyed the heck out of it and I am happy basketball is back.
