Re: 2011-2012 Season article thread
I quoted the end of that article on my Facebook today. Very fun read."...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."Comment

Re: 2011-2012 Season article thread
Gotta love what CBSsports had to say about UNI and the MVC...
http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/e...83066/3370797811. Northern Iowa (7-1). A Sentence: The Valley is going to be a multi-bid league this year, and UNI will be making the NCAAs — yes, I’m saying that on Dec. 5. A Statistic: The Panthers’ D, giving up .93 points per possession, hasn’t been given enough love so far. Let’s see if this team can become as good on the D end as the 2009-10 group. The Schedule: vs. Iowa Tuesday; vs. Wisconsin-Milwaukee Saturday.UNI FIGHT

Look at the bottom of the article - for the conference race. Still a long way to go, but people are talking about four invites for the MVC

Best quote of the article "Northern Iowa is 8-1 and owns the home state, with rather easy wins against Iowa and Iowa State." Love it!!!!!Comment

Katz's 5 observations
4. Northern Iowa is back to being relevant just two years after that stunning defeat of Kansas in the NCAA tournament. The Panthers have lost just once and that was a late-night game at Saint Mary's after an arduous travel schedule to begin the season. UNI has won eight in a row since, including an easy sweep of Iowa and Iowa State and a blowout of previously 8-1 Milwaukee on Saturday. Ben Jacobson's group looks like a strong contender with Creighton, Wichita State and Indiana State for the Missouri Valley Conference title.Comment

Only getting 25% of out O Reb. chances??? Yikes, better start shaping that up quick. I didn't realize our offensive rebounding was so bad.Comment

Re: 2011-2012 Season article thread
My guess is they calculate something like offensive rebounds divided by missed shots (as opportunities to get offensive rebounds). Since we rarely crash the boards on offense in order to get back on defense and prevent transition opportunities, this statistic does not surprise nor worry me at all.Originally posted by ubuntuCAT View PostComment
