      The worst part is, now we have to turn our attention to this.

        Looking at the stats, hard to figure how we lost. We had more fouls, maybe there was some home-cooking. Guards still struggling with field goal percentage. Great game, Jordan.

            At least they lost going with Jordan, what a game.

            Apathy is going to set in, the McLeod Center will be empty for a long time.

              For those who didn't follow the game it was a 3 point game until the last minute when FT's began to mount. UNI led by one with 3 to go. Time to come home and get on a roll.

                I noticed Johhny Moran only played 14 minutes. I wonder if he injured himself. Looks like O'Rear only got 9 minutes...he could use a week off to get rested and healthy.

                This team has played a challenging schedule (more than most of the MVC). They have played games on the road (5) with four of those being BCS schools. The team is youthful in the guard court, and will make strides as time goes on this year. I know I've said it before, but with young guards, this team is going to be inconsistent on the road. It was great to see the ball was going inside as much as it was. Jordan, Adam, Lucas, and Roddie need to get as many touches inside as possible. It seems as though this team is realizing that. We have the best bigs in the MVC...we need to exploit that.

                UNI's five road/neutral games is tied for 2nd most in the MVC, behind Indiana State (6). By comparison Evansville has played only one road game, and Drake has played only two outside the state of Iowa (neutral court). When you can get at home for an extended period of time, teams can build rhythm. UNI is home until Dec. 31st (2+ weeks). That will be good to get on a roll.

                  No writeup on the UNI site, but I found this.


                  CASPER, Wyo. (AP)--Brandon Ewing scored 22 points as Wyoming held off Northern Iowa 74-65 Saturday in the Blue Cross Blue Shield Wyoming Shootout.

                  Northern Iowa led 61-60 with 3:27 left, but the Cowboys (7-1) got 12 straight free throws--eight by Ewing--to pull out the win.

                  Tyson Johnson finished with 18 points, with Afam Muojeke adding 15 points for Wyoming.

                  Jordan Eglseder, a 7-foot-1 center, led all scorers for the Panthers with 31 points. Eglseder was 13-of-22 from the field and grabbed 11 rebounds for Northern Iowa (5-5).

                  While Wyoming had problems stopping Eglseder for much of the game, the Cowboys had three straight stops to get some breathing room.

                  Eglseder had just two points in the final seven minutes.

                  The Cowboys made 19 of 24 free throws while the Panthers made 13 of 14.

                    Hard to believe we lost when Jordan scored 31. Hope that he can step his game up.

                    We have 3 months to figure this out. That's the best thing about college b-ball. We could go 0 for all for the regular season, win 4 in St Louis and we're in.

                      All true, but very disappointing that its only December 14, and this is the sort of thing we are already relying on.

                        This team has been pretty consistent on the road. That's the problem.

                          This team has been very competitive against road teams for about 30 minutes at UIC and Iowa. Wasn't in it against Marquette. Came back the next day and beat Clemson. And lost at the end to Wyoming. These are not road losses to Loyola-Chicago, UMKC, and SDSU (as some of our road games have been the past few years). This has been a challenging road schedule, especially for with a young guard court and with two posts players who didn't have any exhibition games (or 3 regular season games) to get in-sync.

                          Coming home will help...especially for how long they will be home for.

                            I'm assuming you mean Auburn, and not Clemson.

                            If you are impressed with being competitive for 30 minutes against Iowa (debatable) and UIC, that illustrates how far we have fallen.

                            The 3 losses you mention are all from different seasons. This year, we have already lost 5 non-conference games. It is December 14th, and we have virtually eliminated ourselves from NCAA at large contention, and we have put ourselves behind the 8 ball in terms of any post-season play.

                            We have probably played 1 team that will make the NCAA tournament, and they beat us by 30.

                            We have played 2 others that are likely to make the postseason, (UIC and Iowa), and we lost by 7 and 19.

                            Along with that, a road loss to Wyoming, who is picked to finish 6th in the league, and a home loss to ISU.

                            I apoligize if I am not impressed with our 5 victories, when combined with our losses.

                              I think UNI will go as far as they let Egelseder take them this year.

                              The offense has to run thru him. He needs to get 15 shots a game and 10 free throws.

                              Everyone else is better if that happens. If it doesn't we're a mediocre team.
                              Winning is more fun than losing.
