ISU at Evansville (12/29/07)

[ISUCC]

ok, it's MVC time, we'll see what the Sycamores have learned from the 1st 10 games, I sure hope they win this one. It'd be a road win and give this team ALOT of confidence coming home for 2 MVC games.

If they lose, I can only imagine what the rest of the season will bring.

:sycamores:

 

[ISUCC]

early on, ISU leads 11-8, playing fairly well so far.

11:43 left first half.

 

[ISUCC]

26-25 now EU leads, according to the announcers, sounds like ISU is getting pushed around inside.

Martin playing well tonight

halftime, same score.

 

[Bluethunder]

29-28 ISU with 18 minutes to play. This one is probably going to come down to the wire. No one can pull away by more than a couple of points.

 

[ISUCC]

ISU pulling away!! come on guys put them away!!

ISU now leads 40-32!!

:sycamores:

Ill. State is crushing CU too, UNI won at Bradley. Not sure what is happening at WSU

 

[ISUCC]

ISU by 8, ISU in foul trouble a bit now, Jay and McCoy with 3 each.

 

[ISUCC]

ISU up 15 now, halfway thru the 2nd half, guys are playing well, Tunnell on the bench in foul trouble. McCoy with a big3.

Drake is beating WSU, Ill. St. still up on CU.

 

[Bluethunder]

3 by Stinson and now the Sycamores are up by 16!!!!!!!!!

Timeout - 7:21 left in the game.

 

[ISUCC]

like the radio guys say, this is the best ISU has played all season, lets keep it going guys!

Ill. State and Drake still winning the other games.

 

[ISUCC]

how about the athleticism of Isiah Martin! 5 blocks and several altered shots for UE as a result of his play!

Still up 17 points now!

 

[Bluethunder]

Lets not let them back into the game like we did against BGSU last week. Keep your foot on the gas pedal boys!!!!!!!!

 

[ISUCC]

lead down to 12 now, ISU better hit their free throws!

4 ISU players in double digits for scoring. I think McKenna will be a little happier about this performance.

 

[Bluethunder]

Holslinger is a one man team, hits another three, lead is only 9, but less than 2 minutes to go, so if we can hit free throws we should be ok.

 

[Bluethunder]

States going to finally win one on the road. Really needed this one. Great second half, good ball handling, and great free throw shooting. We are up 14 with less than a minute. This one feels good!!!!!!!!!

 

[ISUCC]

FINALLY a road win!! Now ISU needs to back this up with 2 wins at HOME this next week!!

:sycamores:

Hopefully this is the start of a winning MVC season.
