Can we get our mojo back? Or has it been stolen by the backwoods barefooters in Carbondale?
 
Illinois State is probably tied with Missouri State for having the most disappointing season. They were suppose to b up there with Bradley (although I didn't see it) and UNI. beating them here could send them into a death spiral which I would gladly welcome with open arms
 
Hard to find much to be positive about our recent performances, but we have a 5 game stretch of winnable games.
Hoping we at least get back to playing a little more disciplined and look like we are in this “together”-this has been missing the last two for sure.
In honor of the big day tomorrow, I’m ready to see some. “FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!”

Sorry to say it but Chase Walker and Johnny Kinziger will probably have monster games against us.

Not being a smart ass, but someone usually has a monster game against us. Hopefully, we can contain Walker somewhat and our defensive play from the 1st half of the Drake game shows up. I will feel good about our chances from here on out if we play defense like that AND our 3 point shooting gets back to where it was before the last 6 games or so.
 
Maybe Harding has worked his way out of his slump. Maybe a high/low post with Daughtry in the game at the same time even though coach said they would not play together. Tweak some things and maybe some wins follow. A lot of average teams in the Valley

Can’t hurt to at least try it a little bit. If it fails, then stop doing it.

Anyone know the extent of Vorst's injury? Heard that he and Summers got mixed up in practice and now Vorst has re-injured his ankle. Was Summers also injured? I don't remember him getting any minutes in Saturdays game. Perhaps coach will talk about this in the weekly radio show tonight.
 
Radio show cancelled. On road to Normal.

Was hoping to hear explanation of how our player who got the most playing time Saturday was Bruno.

During the first half, Alocen guarded Stirtz as his primary responsibility. Stirtz had 6. Two when Alocen was on the bench and two after an offensive rebound. Camp guarded Mascari who got the bulk of his points in the first half.
In the second half, Alocen started on Mascari, but then Stirtz scored a bunch .

Bruno is doing something that the coaches like even if it eludes most of us.
 
It's game day and I have to wonder...

How many points will Walker score?
How many points will Kinziger score?
Any chance we could end our losing streak tonight?
Is Illinois State a bottom-tier team like we're proving ourselves to be?
Or are they a top-tier team as their fans fancy themselves to be?
How much love do you show the Redbirds for beating SLU in the non-con?
They shoot 39.8% from Three, does that mean we're screwed?
Which of our guys will have the most turnovers in tonight's game?
Will we have two guys tied for the turnover lead in tonight's game?
Hell, will we have three or more guys tied for the turnover lead in tonight's game?
How cold will it be in BloNo at tip-off?
