T State

Just looking at their roster, they are quite simmilar to us in size. I have not seen them play, so I don't know much about the skill level.

I do expect a very competitive game. Their coach is very experienced and well respected. I think we will see a more disciplined effort on the defensive side and an organized, deliberate attack on O.

As a team, we still need to rebound better and take care of the ball better.

Okay, this is only one game and it wasn't against UM, EWU, or even SUU, but it gives us a glimpse of what this team might develop into.

I would say that compairing this year to last is like compairing apples to oranges, but that would be misleading. More like apples to gold bars. Add to that, we are not anywhere near as good as we will be in March. We are still learning to play together, as you can see by the number of TOs we are still suffering through.

Are we at a level to be considered a top team in the BSC yet? I don't think we can claim that to be true until we win in Missoula, win against UNCo, Win against SUU, and win against SacSt. We still have a lot to prove.

Great shooting night and better rebounding and defense in second half. Love the assists. Definitely better team play and ball distribution than last year’s team. Big games vs SUU. That will be a measuring stick as I think SUU is probably the best team in conference right now.
