Montana part Deux

Lol.

Surprising we got the win given the terrible officiating in that game.

That was definitely a strange game. We went from being down by 11 with about 6 minutes to go, to being up 11, then up by 4...to eeking it out at the end. Nice to get a sweep against Montana in both men's and women's basketball this year.

It's very strange to me that we can beat a team twice that's second or third in the conference, but can't seem to muster a road win against the bottom two.

Fairly simple. On the one hand, we’re not very good. On the other, neither is Montana.

Yup. Neither team is that good. The difference in records is largely attributable to the fact that Eastern’s non-conference schedule was significantly more difficult and mostly on the road.

Sweep!

Outstanding!!! What fun to watch both those games...felt like the "gold ole days" once again.

Montana State didn't look very good. Under-sized down low for sure and I wish we could have exploited that some more. It doesn't seem as if there is much of a talent gap between any of the Big Sky teams, and I think we're better than our record shows. They mentioned during the MSU game that we are 1-9 in games decided by 6 or fewer points. In those games this team just couldn't figure out how to finish, but perhaps this team is peaking at the right time.
