oh, don't look now... IU scored the last 4 points of the half... to cut IPFW's lead to 38-36.   Hoosiers led for about a minute early...playing catch-up.


a3uge

Yeah when this game was decided, it was assumed IPFW would still be a dumpster fire.

talksalot

for those not aware... FW 71 IU 68, as the mastadons outscore IU 6-3 in overtime.

Quote from: talksalot on November 22, 2016, 10:51:43 AM11/22/16:   Oregon gets Tennessee 12:30pm CT on ESPN2 in the Consolation round game. Fun game to watch... Indiana AT Fort Wayne (8pm Central) in front of "the largest crowd to ever watch a basketball game in the Coliseum"... "been sold out for about a year".  The Mastadon's are favored to win the Summit.
How did IPFW Fort Wayne manage this and how can we do it
IU is handling the tickets for this game, so it's essentially a home game to appease their Fort Wayne recruits/fanbase.

Well that sure worked out well for them.

We usually have IPFW on the schedule.  This years schedule is a fine one.  However if IPFW and Oakland can get P5 teams to come to their gym, we too should be able to find a way. 

We got Bama and byu this year as a result of our previous success.  An invite at the big table that other HL schools couldn't get. 
CRUSADERS!!!

Most people say size doesn't matter but in Valpo's case the size of the ARC is too small compared to the record.

Fort Wayne was sold out with over 10,000. I think we need to have at least another 1500 or so to get consideration from Major Schools in the area If they would agree to come here to play a possible embarrassing lost to a Mid-Major

Oregon is up by 20 vs UConn in the second half.

Oakland gym is smaller than ours.  They were able to get an sec school on the blacktop.

I watched portions of the Santa Clara- Arizona game and they will not be an easy opponent. This was after breaking down and watching Butler beat Vandy. From a talent, team development standpoint we could compete well with all of them.

Just for clarification, the IU vs. Fort Wayne was basically an IU "home" game.  IU controlled everything, from ticket allotment to game time, etc.  IU had nearly 80% of the tickets.  While the TV announcers were drooling over the fact that FW sold out the game in 20 minutes, they only had about 1,200 to sell. the rest were sold in Bloomington as students could buy as many as 8 tickets per student like my grandaughter did.  Info, my son was on the lower level and his tickets were $45.00 ea.  FYI, I remember when Purdue came to VU the ticket prices were doubled for that game.

OK, so I've been out of town... getting caught up on things...First, I'll tell you that being in Columbus Ohio during their game against TTUN is quite an experience!

BYU gets stomped at home, 114-101 by the powerhouse Utah Valley State, who made 18 of 36 tries from the 3.  Ugly, for us... :o

UVS had 4 players with 20 or more points.

Haws, the kid who forearmed Alec in the face and threw the ball at Lexus, was 1-10 from the field. I hated to see that.

ouch, ouch, ouch... pinch me... who's bright idea was it to schedule Kentucky this year????   ouch...

Kentucky 115  Arizona State 69 (RPI #157)  in the Bahama's....  yes, 46 points.

Rebounds:  KY 59, ASU 33
Assists:  KY 33 ASU 15
Field Goals:  KY 44/84   ASU  25/73
Blocks  KY 9 ASU 4

At least they have to play UCLA on Saturday before our game....

So Coppin State has completed that monster road trip... got to settle in at home in Baltimore against "Chestnut Hill College"... fortunately, non-D1 games don't count in the RPI.   Chestnut Hill 76 Coppin State 73.   Eagles 0-8 on the year.

Even if we lose by 100, it's always a good idea to schedule Kentucky. They'll help Valpo's RPI and SOS regardless of the outcome.

Thank you coach Kampe... I knew you'd appear some day...

The Ducks salvaged something for us 68-63 over #222 Boise State...and Oregon has winless #323 Savannah State coming to Eugene this weekend.  Their RPI is 73... will take a dive this weekend when they play the Tigers.

As the season progresses, Oregon's RPI will continue to get better as they'll be playing teams with winning out-of-conference records (because PAC12 teams don't really have to play road games).
