Man that was an ugly 1st half. 20-15 Redbirds. Horrible shooting. Just not making anything. This is looking like the Valpo game last Saturday.
ISU is playing tough defense. Salukis shooting just 24%. Silvey and Brockmeyer are a combined 3-16. That obviously has to change.
Big first three minutes here. Let's go ladies!!!

Great start to the 3rd. Salukis cut it to 1.
Very little movement in our offense. We look better trying to score in transition.
Deep trouble here.
Promising start to the third fizzled out. Redbirds promptly went on a 13-0 run up 11 after 3. Redbirds packing it in down low. Cutting off just about everything for Abby and Gabby.
Shooting has gone from bad to shitty. Not looking good.

Gotta hand it to ISU - they're playing some pretty stout defense here. We're getting decent looks, but they've chopped the heads off our three headed monster.

And that ISU 3 probably sends us to the NIT.
Let's hope we get a seed and a home game.

Well, that sucked.

Not scoring for about 9 minutes over the 3rd and 4th quarters was the next to last nail in that coffin. 30% fg shooting and -7 from the FT line.
Oh well- good season anyway. Let's re-group and see if we can make a run in the NIT!

Woooow! Stein was not a happy camper in her post-game radio comments. She sounded really pissed. She said - "it was extremely physical and its hard to shoot when you dont have your arms." We couldnt adjust (by the tone in her voice -"read as - the adjustments they tried made were stymied by things other than ISU) She also said the game sucked, and the whole day was disappointing. "It doesnt have anything to do with my team and you can read between the lines. They did miss shots they should have made. She gave some credit to ISU.
She also said we're moving on to post-season and we're going to do something else.
I've not heard her that angry before. These were comments from her radio interview. The Valley interview room was a bit toned down. She did say there were things she couldn't say without getting fined.

Well - it looks like UNI is might relegate MSU to the WNIT with us. MSU has been kinda on the bubble as one of last 4 byes.
FINAL
UNI 63
MSU 57

i didn't listen to her postgame but she didn't do a very good job in that game. good adjustments out of the lock room at half but then reverted to the same crap standing around after we took the lead. sad way to end things. glad to be back to post season play but this was bad. very bad. turd defense was great and we played their game for all but 5 minutes. very disappointed. let's hope we can get our head straight for the nit because 2 out of the last 3 games were a lousy way to end a great season. we just can't have nice things here.
Craving a McBride Special!
