That first half was utterly putrid, yet typical of how the season went for the Viks. :oops:

One game, nothing goes wrong. The next game, nothing goes right.
PSU's women were behind the 8-ball the whole season, so it anyone deserves a pass this year it's them.
Well, after the EWU game, I thought we had a decent chance to pull the upset. I didn't know Streun was going to be the only one who got the wakeup call this morning.

Eh, Idaho State's a vastly superior team than Eastern Washington.

Idaho leads NAU by 17 at the half. The 'Jacks are shooting 20%. :suspicious:

Sac led 9-3 early, then MSU went up 12, then Sac went on an 8-0 run to cut it to 4 at the half.

Well, Sac could win the whole thing if everyone else gets COVID-ed. I mean, that's about their only shot, but still… :lol:
My only comforting thought is that Griz would have gotten rolled....AGAIN....by the ‘scats anyways, so what difference does it make, other than leaving huge question marks about the “interim” coach....
Well, being the first ever team to lose to the lowest seed in the BSCT (men or women) is no laughing matter...ok, yes it is. :lol:

Scrappy first half by the Hornets, then they came back down to earth for the 2nd and got rolled. Piss poor ball control and didn;t make aggressive drives to the hoop like they did last night. Oh well, a win exceeded all expectations and it was nice to see the Bunky era close out on a bit of a high note.

That said, bye bye Bunky.

MSU apparently decided to get drunk at halftime because they're now down 10 less than 6 minutes into the second half. :suspicious:

Idaho dominates the second half to win by 16, so it'll be Moscow vs. Pocatello in Boise.

Idaho State leads Idaho by 19 at the half. The Vandals dominated the second half in their last meeting in Moscow, but they weren't behind by this much.

Avert your eyes children! I believe what's happening to the Vandals today would qualify as a war crime. :yikes:

The confetti went off 6 seconds early, but the margin was too big for that to jinx Idaho State. The Bengals win by 35 and will head to the NCAA Tournament for the 4th. time.

Title Game

Post by Mvemjsunpx »

  • IDA 49-84 ISU; Shooting explains everything here as the Bengals outshot the Vandals 58%-27%
    _________________ Idaho State's five starters shot 71%, while Idaho's starting five shot 25% :shock:
    _________________ The Bengals won points-in-the-paint 48-10 :shock: :shock:
    _________________ The 35-point margin-of-victory was the 2nd. biggest in the history of the title game (2008, UM over MSU by 36)
    _________________ Bengal senior Estefania Ors, who missed most of last season with an injury, went 8/9 and scored a game-high 21
    _________________ Beyonce Bea led Idaho with 14 points and 7 boards, but she was just 4/15 from the field
    _________________ Idaho only committed 3 fouls for the game :?
