      67-63 Jacks pull it off. Fun game to listen to. I have stuff I need to be doing, but it was hard to concentrate with this game.

          How friggin' cool is that. Great win by the Jacks!

          Sad to say that this is probably the last year we'll see quality non-conference opponents in Frost for the women. AJ teams are just too good this early in the transition.

          Go Jacks!

            GREAT WIN FOR THE JACKRABBITS!!!

            We hit 36 of 47 FT's.

            They were 19-23 from the line.

            That's a lot of FT's!!

              If we make the WNIT, and do reasonable, you think we won't get other schools here to play a tough team? I'd think that we'd see more of the MoValley & Big 10 or 12 come up on a home/home. Especially if we're putting 3-4K in the stands.

                Hope the Mid-Con works us and the bison in for replacing Chicago St. in the rotations. Then as a Valpo replacement also.

                  The top mid-majors struggle to get a home and home against the top major programs.  Creighton men are a prime example.

                    Was this the first Jacks win over a top 25 pick in basketball?

                      Just got home from the game and it was fun to watch. We had the bad streak for awhile in the second half but wow, our defense is just stellar. They forced 18 turnovers in the first half. Lots of students there for who it was their first bball game of the year. Games like that should help with attendance in future games. We beat #36 MTSO and now #19 USC and now on to playing SMSU on Sunday. This should give them some good momentum heading into the Junkanoo Jam in the Bahamas.

                              From USC's official athletic web-site:

                              http://usctrojans.cstv.com/sports/w-...skbl-body.html

                              "The 19-ranked USC women's basketball team got stuck in a hole it couldn't climb out of in a cold-shooting night at South Dakota State, suffering a 67-63 loss after a second-half comeback fell short. USC's Shay Murphy led all players with 23 points and 14 rebounds on the night, and Chloe Kerr added 15 points in front of a boisterous South Dakota crowd. South Dakota State only hit 12 shots from the floor -- seven of which were threes -- but the rest came from the free-throw line. The Jackrabbits wsere led in scoring by Megan Vogel's 22 points, which included a solid 15 free throws, and two other SDSU players scored in double figures in the game. USC moves to 1-1 on the year with the loss, while South Dakota State improves to 2-0."

                              Nice job crowd, particularly the students.  Programs like USC do not often play in front of crowds much larger than 1500 to 2000.  

                              I can't wait to read some of the USC coach's post-game comments on the game.  Last year, when Nebraska hosted the Jackrabbit women in their season opener (they had won the prior 24 season openers in a row!), the Nebraska coach had some great comments after the Jacks schooled her team, including one in which she said (paraphrasing) that she's been trying to get her team to play like SDSU plays.

                                From ESPN:

                                http://sports.espn.go.com/ncw/recap?gameId=263212571

                                South Dakota State upsets foul-plagued Women of Troy

                                BROOKINGS, S.D. (AP) -- Megan Vogel scored 22 points and South Dakota State forced 25 turnovers and beat Southern California (No. 20 ESPN/USA Today, No. 19 AP) 67-63 Friday.

                                The Jackrabbits (2-0) were supposed to be a convenient stop for the Women of Troy on their way to Sunday's matchup with No. 6 Ohio State. However, South Dakota State (2-0) forged a 15-point lead and held off a furious rally down the stretch.

                                Jennifer Warkenthien scored 13 points and Andrea Verdegan added 10 as the Jackrabbits posted their first win over a ranked team in three tries since moving to NCAA Division I. They are 27-16 against Division I opponents since moving up at the start of the 2004-05 season. . . . (read more)
