Week 12 games (Feb. 8-14)

[azfan]

Portland State announcers have indicated Portland State has beaten iNAU 10 games in a row. Game starts with two NAU turnovers turned into fastbreak layups and early the Jacks trail 6-2.

Lumberjack defense making Portland State look like a WNBA offense. 61- 55 Portland 8 minute mark of the 4th

 

[azfan]

Just like that Jacks go on run to tie the game 61.

Now 67-61 as the Jacks are in the midst of the 14th nothing run

 

[azfan]

Jacks lose the battle of three pointers. They waste 14 offensive rebounds and 11 3 pointers in this road loss 75-73 as Rasheed misses a three at the buzzer

In early Big South Action... The Powerful Panthers of High Point University released the Krakken on Radford in the first quarter... 35-9

8-8 from 3 in the first quarter.

 

[triaddukefan]

At the half... HPU leads 50-24. Cooled off .. but still 11-18 on 3pt'ers. Interesting.. star player Skylar Curren had 17 points in the first quarter.... didn't play in the 2nd quarter.

 

[azfan]

After a 26 point first quarter, Cal Baptist opens the second scoreless for 4 and a half minutes. The Lancers still lead UTRGV 38 - 33 lead by Caitlyn Harper's 20 points. Harper on 9 of 13 shooting was unguardable.

 

[triaddukefan]

Final from Radford. HPU reigns victorious 103-73. 5 players had at least 2 3pt'ers. Same two teams play again tomorrow at 2pm on ESPN+

 

[nwhoopfan]

I think Northern Kentucky dropped their 3rd straight, this time to Wright St. 66-50. NKU went from first to out of the race in a hurry in the Horizon. Wright St. is in first by 1 1/2 games at the moment.

Cal Baptist kept rolling w/ a 21 point win.

Rice is undefeated in C-USA and only 1 loss overall.

 

[HuskyMJ]

Louisville v. Syracuse and Notre Dame v. NC State both called off because of COVID

 

[azfan]

ASU - Washington - riveting offense 7-2 Huskies at the end of one.

edit - Huskies 20 - Devils 14 at the half as both teams explode in the second.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Oakland edged Milwaukee by 1, IUPUI and Green Bay both notched wins. Wright St. has a leg up in the Horizon, fierce battle for 2nd.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Missouri Valley looks like it's pretty much between Missouri St. and Drake, that sounds familiar.

 

[azfan]

Costly loss for the Lopes yesterday as they hall into a tie for 2nd with Utah Valley.. Even a split today at noon against Utah Valley leaves the Lopes behind the 8 ball as UV had a much easier ending stretch while Lopes face Cal Baptist. Unless the Lopes upset the Lancers in one UV may finish with a better in conference record.

 

[Plebe]

Thanks again to those who kept the porch light on here. I had a whole lot of real life going on this week.

Posted some games from today ... a rather mild slate overall, relatively speaking, despite having six top-25 teams in action plus a number of other potentially NCAA tournament teams. But most games feature either a heavy favorite or two teams with virtually no chance of making the NCAAs.

 

[Plebe]

Michigan State has had a bit of an up and down season, but they're happily coasting at Happy Valley right now.

MSU at 5-5 is stuck right in the middle of the Big Ten standings, tied for 7th with Nebraska (7-7) and Rutgers (3-3). It is CRAZY how wildly the number of games played varies from team to team.

 

[triaddukefan]

Midway through the 1st up in the Hills of Virginia... High Point has raced to a 16-4 lead over the mighty Highlanders of Radford. Keep up this play.. and HPU might show up again in a BY poll.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Cellar battle in the WAC, 0-6 Tarleton vs. 0-6 Chicago St. Somebody is gonna get a W!

 

[triaddukefan]

HPU stumbles a bit in the end of the quarter... still leads 30-9. 7-8 on three pointer's.

 

[gophers1995]

FGCU up 65-32 halfway through the 3rd. Bell has 30 points on 14-18 shooting.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Kansas St. gets their first conference win today against Kansas. 1-10. That's hard to believe. They were a good program once upon a time.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Creighton beat Seton Hall. Oops, bad loss for the Hall.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Idaho leading Idaho St. by 2 early in Q4.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Idaho ran away from Idaho St. down the stretch, 73-56 final. First conference loss for ISU, only 1 game up on Montana St. now w/ those 2 due to meet for a pair of games soon.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Weird game for Gonzaga. Allowed 11 (not a misprint) points in the first half, then 24 in Q3, while only scoring 12 themselves, to make a game of it. Pulled away in Q4 for a 67-50 win over Santa Clara.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Missouri St. was down 4 to Illinois St. w/ about 30 seconds left, but has scored 5 straight in less than 10 seconds. It seems like they have a knack for these last second come backs.
