Should be a decent match if the shooting looks anything like it did on Friday.
Vale 77
C State 70
Should be a competitive game although a middling Horizon League team being rated 50 levels above Valpo just says so much. Cleveland's played K-State and Mich with the expected beat down by Mich. K-State was up anywhere from 10-15 the entire game it seems.
This could move the rank needle a bit with a win.
Wish I could make it but can't. I likely will not comment until after I've seen the game but I think we will play well.
Over Under 2,200 attendance tonight?
Unrelated.....Watched the Hawaii Pacific game live last night. Jerome Palm getting 16 minutes off the bench. A block, a nice jump shot, a rebound or two and a blow by from his defender. Don't think we lost major production. He looked the same, except in a green uniform.
Valpo 82 - 74 tonight over Vikes
Line has moved from Valpo -1.5 to Valpo -3. Wonder why Vegas likes us so much…I’m not as confident, but hopefully we learned from Liberty and can shoot above 35% from3. When was the last time we had a buzzer beater for a win?? Markus Golder over the Redbirds ? Darius with a 40 footer for the win…
Valpo 71
Vikings 69
Cleveland state turned over K state alot and got 18 or so offensive rebounds... Wishy washy Prediction: Valpo plays well its a solid win. Play mediocre its a coin flip. Play bad gonna get beat. Im going with play well VU 82 Cleve st 70. Ill be there live!
It’s a sad turnout-under 2000 for sure.
Well...The defense is doing well...
Couple of observations.
1) the team is nowhere near as intimidated and panicked as they were against Liberty. This makes me hope that game was simply nerves.
2) New additions are performing well and contributing. For this half in particular, kudos to Coulibaly, Ellis, and Shaw.
3) Sepp is tough
4) CSUs defense is way better than Liberty, and we seem to be holding our own.
Encouraging.
Phantom foul calls on Schweiger and Ellis. Hosmer needs to take a page out of the UTAH AD’s book 🤯😂
Wow , RJP too stoic like Lottich , not a good look Roger , not saying anything to the refs , weak and laughable…still plenty of time though !!
Lets not advocate for harassment of the referees... That is one of the easiest ways to get T'd
9% 3 point shooting at home never cuts it anywhere. Allowing 38%.
This team sucks. Half court offense never looked organized last year and still doesn’t look organized this year. The fact we have nobody that can make a shot consistently doesn’t help, but even with bad players a good coach should be able to make them look coherent. The players don’t look like they know where they are and couldn’t dribble around or shoot over anybody even if they did know.
@rezynezy I’d love a T, something Lottich was terrible at , gotta get a couple a season to keep the REFs honest…
