We played everyone who was available. When was the last time we saw a walkon get time on a road league game?
PSU is what we thought they would be. They play fast, crash the boards, and press. They do, however, give up a lot of layups and open shots when you break that press. They also give up fast breaks when they don't get the offensive board. Today, they had a bunch of forced and unforced turnovers.
We may see a similar style a few times this year.
It will be interesting to see if they make any adjustments for the SUnday game. I don't expect any big changes.

Very impressive win tonight. Amazing what can happen when you recruit good players with size and skill. Porter is legit. The last time a walk on got into a road game though was actually last season as it seems Morris played at SUU.
Portland State however is a horrific shooting team and while I think they are a decent team physically and athletically, I don’t see them finishing better than 8th if they continue to shoot like that. Really looking forward to seeing how we do against a top league team.

I sort of forgot about Morris. He didn't seem like a walkon, due to being a 5th year guy.BigWaldO said:oldrunner said:We played everyone who was available. When was the last time we saw a walkon get time on a road league game?

PSU does have some highly reguarded transfers on their squad. They are certainly one of the most athletic teams in the BSC and they do have three guys 6'10'' or better this year. However, if you beat their press and keep their running to a minimum, you are right, they are not going to out shoot anybody. They did have a hot streak in three point shooting in the middle of the second half.
We beat them in every statistical category, including rebounding and turnovers, two areas that they hang their hats on. That Boise game is paying off.
Let's see if we can do the same on Sunday. :nod:
