MBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

So, the last time NPU beat both on the road was a whole 3 years ago? So, not very long ago. Being realistic? Not a very confident bunch, are you? Again, they had won 6 of 7. IWU has shown to drop games they shouldn't (Stout at home, Elmhurst, NCC). Looks like Carthage's early season struggles are over, but NPU is capable of beating them as well.

Did you not read my previous post? Here it is again, with the key point highlighted this time:

I thought it would be inferred, but since you want me to be literal about it -- "nobody" refers to people outside of the North Park program and fan base.

Wheaton is just tough to defend against.  Offensively, there's Richardson who is a handful.  Both VanderWoude and Grier like to score inside with their back to the basket as well as run the floor effectively.  And then you have Neibch, Olson, Carbonaro ready to receive the dish outs and extra pass with Martin ordering the floor.  They might defer to Richardson, but all of them seem to be willing and able to take the big shots when it counts.  If they can just keep their opponents between 75-80 pts  (---IWU <78) . .

Better make it "75-77 pts," because we all know what magically happens when a team reaches 78, right?

Oh good catch . . my bad Greg.  Amended above .

I'm sticking with 78.  Perhaps the Titans will need more than that this weekend to take down high-scoring Wheaton at home.

'78 . . . I mean '70
