  Coe by 8

[IIAC Observer]

Buena Vista over Luther by 13
Central over Cornell by 17
Simpson over Loras by 7   
Coe over Wartburg by 11

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

[youcantseeme]

BV over Luther by 10
Cornell over Central by 4
Simpson over Loras by 15
Coe over Wartburg by 6

Note- The Cornell pick is under the assumption that Tierney is going to play for the Rams, if he doesn't......I take Central by 5.

[lorbec47]

BV over Luther
Central over Cornell
Loras over Simpson (I'll go against the grain)
Coe over Wartburg


Is conference ball here already?

[The Show]

Buena Vista
Coe
Simpson
Central

I don't think there will be any blowouts tonight.  Thought about taking the Wartburg upset, but didn't since they're on the road.

[Rock Chalk DuHawk]

Good luck to all for a great and new IIAC season. 

Tonights picks:
Central over Cornell.... a classic battle for the bottom spots of the conferene
Loras over Simpson in nail biter....Loras hits a buzzer beater to win
Coe over Wartburg......Kilburg goes off as no one can match him
BV over Luther.....BV pulls away in the end, win by 10!


Good luck to all!!!

BV up 3 at the half.

Student announcers I assume on the Luther webcast.  Bissen is pronounced "bee-sen", not "bison".  Not to worry though, many screwed it up for Randy a couple years ago too.

[The Show]

53-50 BV with 3:00 left in the game.

[The Show]

OT in Decorah.

[The Show]

68-63 BV with 40 seconds left in OT.

[The Show]

68-63 BV over Luther in OT.

[The Show]

Looks like this was the night for OT.

Coe beats Wartburg 92-88 in OT @ Coe.

Central beats Cornell 81-67.

Loras over Simpson 84-68.

[Charlie Kohawk]

Wow! It feels like March outside, and it definitely felt like March inside Eby Fieldhouse tonight. Coe won 92-88 in OT, but Wartburg definitely came to play before a hostile crowd. Rob Hanna led the way with 24 points on 10 of 12 shooting. Mike Kilburg pounded in 20, hitting 9 of 12. Coe shot 64.8% for the game, including 78.3% in the second half.

Gotta admit that Coe-Wartburg score surprises me a bit.  The Knights must have given Coe a better game than I, or anyone else around here, would have guessed.

Hey Show, what the hell did you do to get all the bad karma?
