    Game 2 is Missouri St vs ISU Red. Missouri State’s band almost as big as their fan base

      It was a game for about a half but ISU, after grabbing their first lead with about 9:30 left, outscored Missouri St 20-6 the rest of the way and lead the Bears 38-23.

        Both teams shot over 50% for the game.
        SIU lost to Indiana State 95-77 four days ago.
        SIU was up 47-43 at the half, not down by 13. They almost gave the game to InSU in the second half by blowing a nice lead, but held on for the win. What a difference four days make!!

        Anyone know how many lead changes and ties there were in this game, especially in the second half?

        Bring on Drake!!
        My first BU hoops game was on 12/30/1963. My dad took me to watch the Braves defeat Arizona 67-59. He helped me get Coach Orsborn's autograph before the game.

          In the last 10 minutes of the game there were 3 ties and 9 lead changes. In the first half I counted 7 ties and 14 lead changes.

            ISU Red had an easy time against Missouri State as their lead never got back into single digits. The Redbirds shot 26-51 overall, 10-23 from 3, and was able to give their starters some rest in the last 10:00. In their last game in the Valley Missouri St shot 20-58 overall, 5-19 from 3. Certainly will go down as one of their worst seasons in their history. ISU plays Belmont at 2:30 tomorrow

              Missouri State shot poorly, and never seemed to be in contention in the 2nd half.
              Final score- Illinois State 70 Missouri State 54 - https://www.espn.com/mens-college-ba...st-illinois-st

              Bye Bye to Missouri State

                  The general consensus from other Valley fans was “Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out”.

                    Game 3 is Murray St and Evansville. They split in the season series both winning close games at home. Against us we beat Evansville there by 6 about a month ago and we went 2-0 against Murray though we had to go OT a few weeks ago at home

                      I'm just stunned that the Murray State guy, in the early minutes of a Thursday play-in game, hits the shot
                      then turns and trash talks to the EVANSVILLE bench! What really dumb move. and he earned that technical foul.
                      Gotta be more focused and more mature than that.

                          It happens a lot in this look at me era we are in. And not only did he do it in front of the ref he’s complaining about it to his coach as he went to the bench.

                            Terrance Harcum with 21 points on 7-8, 5/5 from 3, shooting as Murray starting to pull away from Evansville. 8:00 left Murray up 59-43

                              Evansville had a couple of 4+ minute scoring droughts in the second half and Murray, behind the brilliant offensive performance by Harcum, pulled away to win 74-53. Harcum ended up with 31points on 10-11 shooting, 7-7 from 3. Pretty hard to put back to back performances like that, I hope.

                                Murray State scares me. They can be tough if they catch fire. We struggled with them at our place
