Without Cam and not going to our bench much in the second half, lots of minutes for our starters...

Overtime at southern Illinois

SIU/MoSU on NBC Sports Chicago + if you get it. If MoSU wins, we clinch a tie for the MVC crown!

Can’t say enough about Ingram tonight. The definition of clutch down the stretch

A win Is a win BUT !
--Satter being naughty did NOT help--team continuity hurt
--Krut nice on offense but appeared slow on Defense
--Came on nicely in second half as always

Lots of stuff to clean up--BUT almost top seed in Arch !!

Definitely was not our best game. But leadership stepped up big again when needed

SIU wins by 1 in OT. Crazy game

Nice team victory tonight. Different people made big plays (except for getting rebounds) throughout the game. Only 6 turnovers and one was a late game shot clock when when just opted not to shoot.

I love that someone new picks us up every game. THX to Krutwig and Ingram for great offensive games. Custer can shoot from any angle and the ball has eyes. Best shooter I've seen where a Rambler jersey.

BUT...Way, way too many easy, uncontested layups the last few games. We must play better offense. That came will finally come that we shoot 43% and we have not played good D. EVEN Ben got beat a few times tonight that produced easy shots.

Tournament time will test good defenses. Ref may let teams play a little more and offense may suffer. Nerves could also play a role if we reach Sunday. There is no substitute for D and ours is still average at best too often.

Sifting thru the standings after tonight, while we haven’t clinched first yet, we have clinched at least second. Drake is 3 games back, but we own the tiebreaker with them. Top 2 is big, since we’ll now get to play one of the teams that has to play on Thursday.
