2015 Summit WBB

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

USD looks nothing like a conference champ so far. Four turnovers and seven points in the first 7:30. Trailing 12-7. WIU has not been shooting a lot better. Luke, in particular, has missed a couple of nice looks. Plenty of airballs and bricks in this one so far.

Tuned in on Midco until the Jacks' game starts. I'm not expecting help from WIU, but there's an outside shot. Maybe Luke can put up 30.

Luke starts with two offensive boards and a basket on the first possession. Keep it up.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

On the women's side ...

USD & SDSU are locked into the 1-2 seed. USD will be the #1 seed if they beat WIU tomorrow.

SDSU has already clinched at least a #2 even if they lose tomorrow.

There's a huge mess in the middle. Most likely, there will be a three way tie between IUPUI, WIU, and ORU. ORU hosts IPFW, IUPUI is at SDSU and WIU is at USD.

NDSU is locked into the #6 seed
DU is locked into the #7 seed.
IPFW is locked into the #8 seed.

It looks like SDSU will face Denver in the first round and then a potential rematch with NDSU/ORU in the second round because I believe ORU would win the three way tiebreaker with WIU and IUPUI if it comes to that for the #3 seed.

I agree that as close as the 3 through 5 seeds are , it doesn't really matter which team the Jacks would possibly face in the semis. So if the Jacks end up as #2 after tomorrow's games , so be it. Let USD go in with the pressure of being #1 with the target on their back.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

IPFW is locked into the #8 seed - I'm curious why you don't want to play them.

Tons of shooters. They are just inconsistent and go game by game. Both games they played against USD were fairly close. Chris Paul will have his team ready to play. His players just have to execute.

Same thing could be said about Denver, but having MW for that game will be a huge difference.

Yeah i am more concerned with USD, IUPUI and western Ill. not concerned with ORU since i think we match up with them better then most, even those their center can put up huge stats, but we just seem to play them well overall. I think IPFW would be the easiest game. Denver worries me more, but not much. they did beat us and they made the finals last year, they are the reason we probably wont be the 1 see.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

All pretty favorable match-ups for the Jacks if they stay this way. The only teams I don't want to see before the championship game are IPFW and IUPUI.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

Coyotes up 37-26 at half. Not a huge lead, but not looking great for a miracle upset tonight.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

Yup, agree, but the fundamental fact of the nine-team schedule is jumbling up the schedule so that NDSU finishes its conference regular season on Thursday. Somebody had to pull the short (or long, depending on your point of view) straw, with nine teams.

That would pose the question if there might be any teams to add to the Summit next year or soon after. That would take a little more pressure off the scheduling people for OOC games. It would give all the teams the ability to drop a couple more NAIA or DII games from the schedule.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

Mick is live chatting USD sports over at the argus.
http://www.argusleader.com/story/spo...arry/14363351/

There's not much interest/activity...at one point after nothing for about 10 minutes, he actually wrote "another exciting day talking about Coyote athletics", or something to that affect.

It appeared as if there were more SDSU fans than USD fans on the chat...poor Mick

Thats for sure.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

Which getting rid of the mirror scheduling at least from my point of view was a great thing. just would like to see a few more double headers, and trying to avoid the mens and womens having games at the same time, but thats clearly improved from last year.

Re: 2015 Summit WBB

Scheduling a nine-team league has got to be a nightmare. I don't envy the SL office who has to put that schedule together.
