And this is how the rivalry get renewed. Not by smack on message boards or some media outlets shoving it down our throat, but by the players on the court. Tough loss for the Jacks, but the Yotes came out and played hard to start the game and held on and did enough to win the game.
I hate losing to USD as much as anyone, but we have bigger fish to fry this season. Being able to possibly make the dance makes the loss a little easier to swallow. Granted if we play like we did for the entire first half, we may not even make the final!
They just rushed the floor. Like really. Come on people.
Their fans have been waiting to cheer for something all basketball season. This was their Summit Tournament final...let them have their moment. If we don't like them rushing the court, don't let them beat us.

Agreed. Don't let them beat you and you won't have that problem. SDSU played very poorly. Have to give the USD players and the crowd some respect for that. SDSU never felt comfortable. Time to move on and take down UMKC. Need to lock up that #2 seed for the Summit Tourney and allow a day off.

That will really help the rivalry. Til this game USD looked like they really lacked any student interest. Now to get some interest in a non SDSU game. Much better than what you'd get with a commuter campus like UMKC or IUPUI. The future of the Summit's in the Dakotas.
Nagy:
we had a bad week of practice.
USD just tougher than us.
We didn't deserve to win.
We going see that (holding the ball) from here on out so we'd better get used to it.
We haven't shot well, didn't shoot well last week either.
The opportunity to win the league is gone now so we have to battle our tail off.
We didn't show the fight early and didn't deserve to win. Proud our kids didn't give in but we didn't deserve to win.
Tyler asked about White: Nagy: Chad seemed to be the one guy who had energy. Nate -- all our guys flat (at the start) -- didn't get going until several minutes in to the game.
Tyler asked about UMKC: Interesting to see how our kids bounce back. They always have.
simple stuff: show up and play. I don't know what the lesson is; we already went through this with UND.
