Season Outlook

[JackrabbitGuy]

I was just looking over the upcoming schedule and a couple of things glared at me.

- There are 2 teams (NDSU and Oral Roberts) and 4 games on this schedule versus teams that won 20 or more games last year.

- There ae 16 games against teams that won 12 or fewer games last season.

This second group of games are the key games for the Rabbits this year. This is definately a schedule that at least gives the team hope. The last couple of years you could just feel the life getting sucked out of the roster with 20-point blowout after 20-point blowout.

If they can hang tough and gain some continuity between Beran/Berte/Loney and the youngsters, there is actually a light at the end of the tunnel.

Lets Go Rabbits!

Re: Season Outlook

I am sure this year will be a great year for the Jacks, just sorry that we are not going to be at evry game, got Jamal's schedule in and there are quite a few games where Jamal plays at home the same weekend as Kai, so it looks like we are going to have to toss a coin

Regardless it's gonna be a great season!!!!!!

Re: Season Outlook

Best of luck juggling that schedule. I think there will be some fun nights this year in Frost Arena. I'm looking forward to making it up as much as I can.

My son has already declared that he plans on attending SDSU.

The reasons (in order):
1) Great engineering program.
2) Great Ice Cream.

Re: Season Outlook

The North Dakota State game on Feb. 22 will be the best atmosphere of the season because this one will certainly be a capacity crowd. Other than that, I am excited about the Saturday home conference games in January. If the team is doing well the good crowds for games will start then.

Re: Season Outlook

mo berte has a torn miniscus and has to undergoe surgery. he will miss 2 to 3 weeks according to what i have heard.

Re: Season Outlook

Ouch! That's not good. Although if the three week prognosis proves true, not as bad as it could have been. He's a big part of the tough physical presence that we are hearing about this year.
