This score was from yesterday (Sunday, Dec. 10)-

The score was 10-4 with 4 minutes gone in the first half, then NDSU went on a 50-1 run to finish out the first half.
North Dakota State lead at halftime 60-5. They played their reserves most of the game.
Oak Hill shot 6-49 for the game (12.2%), and 1-20 from three (5%). They also were outrebounded 59-14 by NDSU.

Oak Hills Christian College is a small private college from Bemidji, Minnesota. They are not NCAA nor NAIA, but compete in the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA) and the Association of Christian Colleges (ACCA).

What was North Dakota State thinking when they scheduled this game?

I found someone who posted highlights, or maybe they should be called lowlights, of this 108-14 win by North Dakota State over Oak Hill Christian College.
You will enjoy watching this. Looks like any 5 of this board's members could probably beat these guys- https://twitter.com/CBBcontent/statu...33928736817607

They were 6-49 from the field, and 1-20 from three for the game, and most of that was against NDSU's deep subs.

Here is another silly score from yesterday (Tuesday, Jan. 2, 2023).
The Grambling State U. women beat the College of Biblical Studies (a private bible college in Houston) 159-18.
Box score- https://www.espn.com/womens-college-...meId/401608770
The College of Biblical Studies is an NCCAA school.

The College of Biblical Studies committed 57 turnovers in the game and shot 18.6% from the floor (8-43). They were 1-13 from three (7.7%), and they were only 1-14 from the free throw line (7.1%).

The Grambling women's team is not exactly a powerhouse. They were 5-5 coming into the game last night (3-5 against D1 opponents). They were 10-20 last season. They were picked 8th (out of 12 teams) in the SWAC Women's Preseason poll.
The 141 point margin of victory set a new NCAA record for the largest margin of victory in the history of Division I women's basketball.
The previous record for margin of victory was Savannah State over Georgia Wesleyan 155-26 (129 point margin) in 2018.

I saw one report but cannot verify -- in that game, the Grambling opponent, College of Biblical Studies, were upset that the Grambling
coach was still full-court pressing with a 100+ point lead then racing & fast-breaking for more easy layups in an obvious attempt to
run up the score or break some kind of record, that he instructed his own players to just inbound the ball
and score into Grambling's basket - making a total mockery of the competition, just as a form of protest to Grambling running up the score.
Did anyone here watch that game?

These type of games are silly and imo completely unnecessary. Results should be stricken from any record at all. It's like Michigan Football claiming to be the program with the most wins but have a material amount of wins against club schools from nearly 100 yrs ago or whatever.

Because of the historic margin of victory, there are numerous articles written about this game, and I cannot find any mention of anything like that.
