UIC beats Stony Brook to advance.  Hosting round 2 Monday

talksalot

UIC is the last HL team standing... 80-71 over George Washington in the CBI last night at the Pavilion, packed in 1,048 fans !

out-shot and out-rebounded GW

Next up... At Coastal Carolina in the CBI Semi-Finals, Wednesday night, 6pm

the Flames boosted their overall record to.... 17-18.  They are only 5-8 on the road this year.... the Chanticleers are ... 18-17 !  They beat Loyola-MD in their quarterfinal last night.

UIC's RPI has climbed all the way to #236... CCU is #178.  Flames are 3-14 against the top-200 teams... their best road win of the year was at #237 DePaul!

and then there were none.   Coastal Carolina 89 UIC 78 in the Semi Finals of the CBI.  CCU takes on the winner of Wyoming and Utah Valley in the best-of-three finals.

CONWAY, S.C. – UIC shot the ball well Wednesday night, connecting at a clip of 50 percent from the field and making 11 3-pointers, but the Flames did not have enough firepower to top the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers in the semifinal of the College Basketball Invitational presented by FIVE FOUR. The Flames fell, 89-78, at the HTC Center.
 
UIC's Tarkus Ferguson scored a career-high 27 points to lead all scorers and four Flames in double figures. Marcus Ottey netted 11 points by making all four of his field-goal attempts, while Tai Odiase and Dominique Matthews chipped in with 10 points apiece.

In case anyone is remotely interested.....

UWGB men knocked off Oakland at the Resch last night 80-79.

And in a real shocker, Northern KY  beat the Phoenix women in Kentucky by more than a few.

Milwaukee fans seriously ran their mouths on Twitter today bashing our program when they've lost to teams like Concordia St Paul (by 14) Montana State Western Illinois (by 21) and Youngstown State who hadn't beaten a D1 team until league play? Exactly how many MVC games do they think they'd win this year? They wouldn't even be the best Panthers in the MVC. What a sad sorry pathetic fanbase.

valpotx

Milwaukee sucks.  Plain and simple.  They had a few good years, but have no pedigree.  They can't compare.

Yeah their KenPom rating would be last in the MVC by a good margin.

oklahomamick

Only time uwm was winning was when they were cheating.....
CRUSADERS!!!

VUGrad1314

Best part is how thin-skinned they are while they accuse us of being thin skinned. A couple of the leaders of their twitter presence could teach master classes in projection and dishing it out while being completely  unable to take it. You know what they say... If you can't beat Concordia St Paul Western Illinois Montana State Youngstown State or IUPUI you probably should avoid criticizing other programs.

Gee, I thought this thread was about the OTHER VALLEY CONFERENCE GAMES....I guess you can't tell a post by it's cover.

anyway... how about that bad beat in the UNI-Indiana State game last night...

0:51   Jordan Barnes Layup to make it 65-62 Indiana State
0:40   UNI Turnover by Juwan McCloud
0:27   UNI Foul on Wyatt Lohaus
0:27   Jordan Barnes Good FT
0:27   Jordan Barnes Good FT 67-62 Indiana State
0:21   Wyatt Lohaus Good 3-Pointer  67-65
0:17   Juwan McCloud, UNI steals the inbound pass
0:13   Tywhon Pickford, UNI layup good  67-67 tie
0:03   Brenton Scott, Indiana State missed 3-pointer
0:01   Brandon Murphy, Indiana State, Offensive Rebound
0:01   Brandon Murphy in among the trees tips it up and in at the buzzer  69-67 Indiana State Final

(ESPN has the replay)

Loyola pulled away from Illinois State in the last 8 minutes 68-61

In Short
Loyola University Chicago's (13-4, 3-2 MVC) physical defense forced 18 turnovers and the Ramblers earned their first win at Redbird Arena since 1991 with a 68-61 victory over Illinois State tonight. The win is Loyola's second in a row.

How It Happened
Loyola received a huge lift from the bench in the opening period, getting 22 points from the reserves, including 11 from Bruno Skokna. Aundre Jackson (6) and Skokna (5) accounted for 11 points in a 13-0 Loyola run that gave the Ramblers a 23-13 advantage.

After Illinois State trimmed the deficit to four, Loyola rattled off eight unanswered points, punctuated by a three-pointer from Skokna, to bump the lead to 33-21, the largest of the half.

The Redbirds got back into the game, scoring the final seven points of the half to send Loyola into the locker room on top, 33-28.

Loyola led by as many as eight points in the second half but Illinois State stormed back, using a 16-7 run to seize a 46-45 lead with 7:58 left to play. From there, however, Clayton Custer tallied five straight points as part of a 12-2 Loyola run that gave it a 57-48 lead. That advantage would grow to as much as 11 points (62-53) and Illinois State never got closer than five the rest of the game.

A Look At The Numbers
Jackson scored a team-high 15 points off the bench, hitting 6-of-7 shots from the field, while Custer added 14 points.
Marques Townes pitched in 12 points and Skokna contributed 11 to round out the double-digit scorers.
With his first basket of the night, Donte Ingram scored his 1,000th career point. He is only the 19th player in program history to rack up 1,000 points and 500 rebounds in his career.
Phil Fayne led ISU with 14 points.


and the Evansville - Missouri State game... here's the 6:30 recap and highlights from the Evansville site

(if nothing else, I can get the correct pronunciations for the Aces... they have a couple of players on the list...
Dainius Chatkevicius...the coach refers to him as DC)

This is actually the place to talk about HL games. The Space for Valley stuff is called "Aroud the Valley" roughly in the middle of the boards list. Or there are several MVC related threads on the main board.

Just for grins I checked the HL standings as of February 5, 2018.  Who would have thought, in November, that this would be how things would be unfolding ?

Once again, "The King" has talked the talk but can't walk the walk.  In their home programs this year they show a poll(not sure of the source, but probably the HL Pre-season thing) showing OU getting around 75% of the vote to win the HL this year.  Even though they have suffered some injuries and whatever, with all thsoe seniors and now the Nunn addition, it is another under-achieving year for the Golden Grizz.  And every year we keep hearing what a great coach Kampe is.  As for me, you can peddle that talk someplace else because I  don't buy it.

Battle for First Place February 16 between Wright State and NKU 8PM (I think ) on ESPNU.

Both schools have drawn extremely well this season with Wright State averaging 4101 fans and  NKU checking in at 4099\game.

valpo64

And Kampe still can't believe it.  If players and teams "on paper" would win anything OU would be  National Champs.  He is not even one of the top 2 or 3 coaches in the HL.  Every year the story is the same in his case...would of, could of, should of.  I believe his team this year was heavy with seniors and they are in the middle of the pack  "The King is dead, the King is dead...long live the King."

NKU@Wright State with first place on the line starts at 8CT on ESPNU if anyone's interested.

oklahomamick

NKU goes down to Cleveland st. In the Norsemans first game of motor city madness.

This marked the third straight year the #1 seed failed to win a tourney game. 

Oakland must be licking their chops.  They will beat iupui then play Cleveland state.  Perfect path to the championship game.

* in the words of lee corso "not so fast my friends" remember Oakland has won only one tourney game.  I miracle win with 3 seconds left....

Really don't want Oakland to get to championship game because that will inflate attendance. 
CRUSADERS!!!

IUPUI 45 - Oakland 42 with 11 minutes left...

Oakland wins by 7, setting up a game against upset-minded Cleveland State.

And King Kampe and Oakland lose in semis of Motor City tourney to upset minded but lowly CSU 44-43. This hometown advantage just isn't working out well for Kampe. [emoji26]

The man simply can't coach. I am not sure they ran a play the entire second half.

bbtds

If Olympic Entertainment decides to opt out of the 4th year of their agreement with the Horizon League maybe they could send them to Wyoming or Montana for the HL tournament next year. Kampe would love that. They would probably get the same amount of fans and maybe a few real grizzly bears.  ;)

oklahomamick

Was hoping for uwm to get the upset over wroghtbstate.  They were close.  Would have been rpi 297 Cleveland state vs. rpi 229 Milwaukee in the championship game.
