Another quick note to remember is that IUPUI WBB finishes the season with SDSU & USD in the Jungle. They might trade for a couple of road games!

Ober didn't play against IUPUI. I think she will make a huge difference. Rogers couldn't be stopped down low. Ober will have something to say about that.

Re: 2015-2016 Road to Sioux Falls

Agree about Ober. She is a huge part of what SDSU does, especially with all those blocked/changed shots.

Here's a good blog I stumbled onto put together by an Omaha fan. He breaks down all the games and also does a weekly ranking.

IUPUI up by 15 at half. They held Omaha to 27 points for the half. That's pretty amazing.

At the 1st media timeout during the NDSU/WIU game, it is knotted up at 0. Yes ZERO points have been scored in the first 4 minutes of the game.

Omaha is 9-5 in league and they go to IPFW on Saturday.

IUPUI is 8-5 and goes to NDSU on Saturday.

I'm sure that's happened before, but not very often.

The Possible SDSU win at FW is super big now.

Re: 2015-2016 Road to Sioux Falls

IUPUI now has wins over SDSU, FW and Omaha. Anyone overlooking them in Sioux Falls is making a big mistake. They could easily knock one of the "big three" out of the tournament.

Re: 2015-2016 Road to Sioux Falls

Pretty big upset on the womens side.

IPFW beat ORU. ORU has dropped there last 3 games.

The Jags play at Fargo and the last 2 games at home against USD and IPFW. They could be a top 2 seed if they win out.

The Mastodons should have the edge(8th place) on Denver as ORU would be the highest rated win between the 2 teams that split in head up conference play.

Re: 2015-2016 Road to Sioux Falls

No other games on the mens side except for the obvious one.

On the women side however there is a pretty big match-up with IUPUI @ UNO. If they Jags still want a chance for a top 2 seed they need to win this game.

The other non SDSU game tonight is WIU @ USD. Let's hope for some hot shooting for the 'Necks!

Re: 2015-2016 Road to Sioux Falls

WBB Final: Omaha 57, IUPUI 54.

SDSU/USD both 12-1 in league. IUPUI drops to 9-4.

Re: 2015-2016 Road to Sioux Falls

The Jacks struggled at two important junctures of the game, opening minutes and closing minutes of the 2nd half. As a result, IPFW has the inside draw for the regular season championship.

MBB Summit Standings/Schedule

IPFW: 10-3 UNO, @WIU, @IUPUI
SDSU: 9-4 @WIU, NDSU, ORU
UNO: 9-5 @FW, ORU
IUPUI: 8-5 @NDSU, USD, FW

NDSU: 7-6 IUPUI, @SDSU, @Denver

Denver: 5-8 @ORU, @USD, NDSU
ORU: 5-8 Denver, @UNO, @SDSU

USD: 4-9 Denver, @IUPUI, @WIU
WIU: 2-11 SDSU, IPFW, USD

Looks like you could put a fork in WIU. They are not going to win 2 out of 3 with that schedule. Feel bad for my little buddy Tate Stensgaard. He may be 9" taller than me, but I still remember him as the little red head son of Pastor Dwight Stensgaard from Calvary Lutheran Church in Rapid City.
