EAGS vs UND

[GoldenEagle]

EAGS once again look solid. Playing more physical than UND on both ends OG with two 3-Pointers and VJois with huge drive and dunk.

 

[GoldenEagle]

Drew Brandon with a hand injury on the bench. They said not broken.

 

[GoldenEagle]

Coach Hayford going to the bench a lot again.

 

[GoldenEagle]

EAGS 28
UND 27

EAGS got a little sloppy on offense at end of half but are playing really good defense. Coach Hayford trying many different combinations and playing the bench a lot.

We are not getting any calls in the second half. :evil:

 

[Sylvergunsuperman]

Jois is sooo tough down low tonight!!

I know, but these guys are battling. They can not stop VJois. Felix Van Hofe is really starting to play good ball.

12 minutes left...46-44, UND.

That is part of this team's inconsistent nature. Making FTs is part of playing a complete game. Really happy with the defensive effort though.

 

[EWURanger]

Fighting...down by 2 with less than 2 minutes.

Damnit, may have to foul here and hope they miss a FT. :thumbdown:

 

[EWU98]

WHAT THE F is happening!!!
WHY ARE WE NOT ABLE TO WATCH THE FINISH OF THE GAME ARE THEY LOCKED INTO THIS FEED FROM THE CHANNEL??
TYPICAL ND behind the times by like 30 years!! BTW my uncle lives there so I have first hand knowledge of their backassery!

 

[EWURanger]

Harvey with the 3 to tie the game. ND will have the ball with 15 seconds left...

 

[EWURanger]

You gotta be shittin me. Beat by a buzzer-beater.

 

[EWU98]

Heartbreaker . . .Troy Huff makes a rebound basket as the buzzer sounds and UND defeats EWU men 69-67...under review #GoEags #BigSkyMBB

 

[EWU98]

I think they cut the feed to protect themselves just like Montana vs. PSU earlier this season.

 

[EWU98]

Play stands & UND wins. Eagles return home for 2 games with 9-9 Big Sky mark and in the hunt for one of 7 tourney berths #GoEags #BigSkyMBB

 

[EWU98]

SHOOOT FTS! Again doomed them. I will say this was the first time I have really had a chance to watch them since earlier in the year and they were a whole lot more fun to watch! Keep fighting . . .GO EAGS!

Yes, gotta make free throws, especially on the road. That UND team that they took to the buzzer is a talented team full of seniors and three, 1,000 point career scorers. But, the EAGS had that game and got sloppy on offense.

Hopefully we get Drew Brandon back soon because I think he is integral to the team’s future success. He handles defensive pressure really good and allows Tyler Harvey to move without the ball. Drew Brandon is also a three point shooting threat, tough on defense and a great rebounder for a guard.


Although, I get really frustrated with this team’s inconsistency, I really think they are steadily (but sometimes slowly) improving and moving in the right direction. Early in the season they did not move the ball well on offense and got beat all the time in transition. I believe they have dramatically improved on overall defense. On offense they move the ball better and even though they have he BSC scoring leader, they don’t collapse when Tyler Harvey has a rough scoring game. Also, Jim Hayford is playing the bench more which I think improves their ability to match up with other teams better on offense and defense.
