Let's see how SIU responds after yesterday's disaster:

If this is a repeat of the Drake series then I doubt if we win another game all year.
On the bright side, it would be (almost) impossible to play worse than yesterday.
So we got that going for us.
March on triumphantly!
I think Bryan probably lit a fire under them after yesterday's game. I expect us to be much more competitive today. 😉
Let's hope so. I can usually find a few things to like, but yesterday it was hard. Even Kyler's double double seemed lost in the context of things. Cmon Dawgs, we still got a lot of faith in you guys and the coaching staff, even if you do stumble badly. We're here to pick you up. Show us there is a Santa Claus.

Wow, Harvey has severely regressed since the beginning of the season. Lesson learned to wait before jumping on the hype train (that I was the conductor of).
Looks like SIU is going to continue shooting the 3 trying to win. Considering they are not a good 3pt shooting team, this game could get out of hand quickly, IF they don't make them at a high clip. Oh and look, Filewich gets one down low and scores.
Verplancken knocking his 3's down so far. 3-3 from 3.

SIU 6-8 from 3. Much better effort than yesterday
It’s kind of crazy how quiet the page is when we are winning but when we are losing how loud some voices are on here

Many are watching the Mundelein vs ND game that is being live streamed.
I find it kind of crazy how when the team loses, some voices say "these games don't matter bc of this or that excuse" but when they win a game they go nuts. 😉
I said it earlier and I'll say it again, if SIU continues to just jack up 3's, there is a good chance ISU will get back in this game.
