MBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

A computer with ears?

Overwhelming evidence!

Why does Ken Massey have a cartoon banana as his screensaver?

On second thought, I'm not really sure that I want to know.

Maybe his spoon is too big?

Do you think anyone else got that?

I didn't, but I'll take a stab at it and guess that it might have something to do with this.

Not quite.  My reference was more connected to the bannana than Massey.

The reference is right at the beginning, but be warned, it does get bizarre the further you go

No Roshawn Russell and no Clayton Cahill for NPU this evening.

This is going to be a very, very long night for North Park.

Wheaton is spanking Carthage at halftime. What's up with Coach Bosko not wanting to call timeouts?

Sager you new this question was coming at sometime this year.   Is it time to bring back Ree's!

[Mr. Ypsi]

Carthage downs Wheaton, 55-54.

The race is on!

[cciw watcher]

A stunning victory for Carthage!  Way to go Redmen!  April do you need some tissue?  Its all about free throws baby! 

[Gregory Sager]

Elmhurst beat NCC, 72-66.

Wheaton deserved to lose at home tonight. The simple story of the game was allowing Carthage to score 39 pts in the second half after holding them to 16 in the first and Wheaton, an 80% ft shooting team, was 11-24 from the line for 46%. Carthage put them in the bonus with more than 8minutes to go in the game and then they committed several really dumb fouls, but Wheaton could not make a free throw. It's about defense and free throws and the THunder didn't play fundamental basketball tonight.

The Live Stats are stuck, but IWU apparently beat NPU, 102-82.

The Thunder forget how to shoot free throws and waste another strong defensive effort. I have a feeling this one is going to come back to haunt Wheaton. This was a game they really needed to win with the brutal three game stretch coming up.

Watched the Carthage/Wheaton game from my hotel room here in Tulsa, OK.  Great 2nd half by the Red Men.

Steve Djurickovic is really amazing.

Wheaton must've done something right. The Sonic Atmospheric Disturbance held Steve D. to a season-low 17 points on 7-16 shooting, and Fendley to a woeful five points.

They totally shut down Steve D in the first half (2 points), but he got his season average in the second half.

I suspected Carthage might win (though, alas, wimped out in the pickems ), but this was NOT how I expected.  I figured with Kent out, Steve D might go for 40.

Yes but it was all in the 1st half. Steve D had just 2pts at the break and Carthage only 16. That's great defense. The problem is the game is 40 minutes and 15 pts for Steve D and 39 for Carthage combined with 11-24 from the line is not going to get it done against a CCIW team. Wheaton disappeared on defense in the second half.
