MBB: Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

Dodge has 20 at the half, including 6 3's...but Point is hurting as far as foul trouble goes.  Augie was in double bonus early.  Refs haven't given UWSP the benefit on some charge calls from my look.  UWSP up 38-32.

Point loses in OT. Another promising season down the drain. Is there a NIT for D3?

So why is their season down the drain? Unless I'm missing an attempt at sarcasm...

THE WIAC goes 1-1 for the day, dropping their nc record to a disappointing 26-10.

Eau Claire 68
Superior 56

Eau Claire takes care of Superior. Four players in double figures.

Augustana 86 OT
Stevens Point 84

Point gets smoked in Rock Island. They'll probably drop out of the Top 25 next week. It was good while it lasted.

Whatever Nate Dodge ate for a pregame meal, feed everyone the rest of the season.  I had Nutella served several ways.

Why don't you just concede the two games with us so neither team has to be bothered with the expense and boredom of a long bus ride. 

[Greek Tragedy]

It's being considered. Both games are during the week and we know "student" comes before "athlete". But, you'd have to forfeit your game up here to make it fair.

RF loses to UST 85-70. UST led 40-30 at half but only by 8 with 3 minutes left. UST pulled away with free throws at the end. UST had a 33-6  point edge on points from beyond the arc. The Tommies look like the best team in the MIAC. They were led by Nelson and Bair w/24 and 23 points respectively.

Heidecker led the Falcons w/15 pts. and 17 rebounds. Jackson had 17 pts.

[Greek Tragedy]

Rough night for the WIAC as we go 1-2. We're just 27-12 now.

Platteville 88
Alma 61

5 games tonight

Platteville at Wash U. - Platteville should return from St. Louis with two wins.
Oshkosh at Elmhurst - Titans with a win.
La Crosse at Central - La Crosse in a close one.
St. Scholastica at Eau Claire - The Blugolds in a battle.
Superior at Stevens Point - Point with a stroll.

Oh, does Platteville have more game scheduled before they leave St. Louis?

Ha. I guess I'm predicting they'll beat your Bears tonight.

I've got Wash U by 5 in this one.

[4samuy]

Of course you do.  Anything to help IWU's resume, right?  😉

[Titan Q]

Of course you do.  Anything to help IWU's resume, right?  😉

Well, I mean, what I want to happen in a game vs what I think will happen are two different things.  In this case I am making a prediction based on what I have seen in watching both teams.  I see Wash U as a 5-point favorite in STL.

But heck yes, absolutely, go Wash U Bears all season long!

[WUPHF]

I am operating off a very limited sample size, but I do not see any reason to favor Platteville on the road from what I watched.

I'll go with the five point loss for Platteville.
