Howard is coming off a 5 point win @ UMass. They are 4-0, but I think three of those wins are against non-D1 opponents.
Might be a tough game with the short bench but a game they need to win
+1
SIU -17.5
I expect a blow out.
I expect a blow out.
Me too.
Though I bet we're thinking of different teams on each end of the blow-out game.
Go Dawgs!
We dropped down to #20 in the Mid-Major poll. Not that it means anything, but certainly not good enough for the NIT.
Are people being serious that they think SIU will blow out Howard? Yes, they have played a mostly terrible schedule. But their guard play is pretty f**kin' good.
Who all is out for SIU? Fletcher won't be playing, who else?
All five SIU starters with a turnover in the first five minutes. That's spreading the wealth. 😉
6-6 early.
Dawgs with a nice 11-0 run to open this up to a 15-6 lead.
Make it a 15-2 run and a 19-8 lead at the 12 min timeout. That's more like it!
Gooch lighting it up!
27-25 Dawgs now, thanks to TWELVE turnovers.

This is an ugly mess.
Craving a McBride Special!
