    How did we lose last night?

    I checked out the box score on ESPN.com (the recap didn't tell me a damn thing), and I'm puzzled as to how we lost to Bradley. We shot more than 50% from the floor while holding Bradley to under 40%. The only thing I can think of is that we were outrebounded and had almost twice as many turnovers as assists. Eric Coleman was our assist leader with 3. Our center should not have more assists than our guards (hey, maybe I just answered my own question!).

    Anyway, any thoughts on the game last night? Living out in Colorado, I haven't been able to watch any games yet, but I did buy ESPN Full Court, so I should be able to at least watch a couple here soon.

    8 of Bradley's 10 FGs in the second half were three-pointers. That's where they outshot us.

    Besides being out rebounded, I really didn't think we played too terribly. Bradley just outshot us from the outside.

      The Panthers experienced some major momentum killers to the credit of Bradley. A couple of tims we cut it to 2 or 3 and the crowd would be on their feet. Bradley then went down each time and hit a 3 and sat everybody right down. We just could not get over the hump.

        Hopefully you bought it because you just love basketball because, in all honesty, concerning the Panthers, you're better off buying CSTV All-Access (yes, even despite its issues) and your FSN sports package from your Dish or Cable provider.

        I'm actually not sure UNI appears on ESPN FullCourt once this year.

        Sorry to disappoint.

          UNI appeared on Full Court in the Nevada game. The Drake game will also be on Full Court.
          The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

            Well, I do love college basketball, but since I'm from Ames I'm also a dual Cyclone/Panther fan, so I can see plenty of Iowa State with the Full Court package. But, I also know that at least one and maybe both of our games against Drake are on the Full Court package as well.

              Chippewa, we are on ESPN2 on Tuesday, but maybe that's just regional.

                  UNI's lack of confidence seems to instill confidence in everyone else we play. That is the only way I can explain career shooting nights from almost every team we play.

                    Yep.

                    I just got done saying in another thread that I'm more negative than many on here, and I don't feel too bad about last night. Not much you can do when a player has a night like Crouch did. Very clutch.

                    If we get our turnovers down and learn to rebound stronger, I think we can remain competitive and win some decent games yet. This team has it in them.

                    My ??? come with the coaching staff.

                      You can only coach so much. The players have to play and they didn't get it done either. I don't think you can blame the coaches for the lack of rebounding, you can't blame the coaches for the turnovers. Now don't take this the wrong way because I still question a lot of things; offensive plays, substitution patterns, etc, but at some point the players have to get it done on the court. They did not do that against Bradley.
                      If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times
