Re: Iup basketball
Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostThat's a suckers bet. If IUP escapes Fairmont tonight (big IF) ... that has classic hangover game written all over it. WCU has also had 10 days to prepare for the IUP game. Not that I used to gamble on sports or anything. LOL. But, those are key factors in gambling on games. Not to mention WCU has won three straight in the series. Further, the last game before a long break is always interesting. One team usually seems to already be on break mentally. Real money involved ... I wouldn't touch that game.
WCU has a lot of talent. What's up with the start they've had?

Originally posted by IUP CRIMSON HAWKS View PostThe IUP men have done fantastic thus far and should be lauded. I guess just to give your supporting data a high degree of validity we need to know the exact level of competition that each of those schools have faced. After all, tis the season to bring in the creampuffs and line up the tomato cans.
I think that the Maryland Eastern Shore team that Pitt beat yesterday might have a hard time beating a team made up of this forum posters such as myself, IUPBigIndians, IUPalum, Chuck Norris and IUP24. They were that bad. LOL.

Concord (9-2)

Bowie State (5-6)
U-Sciences (4-7)
Westminster (D3 ... doesn't calculate in to SOS)
Le Moyne (6-3)
Kutztown (6-4)
Millersville (5-4)
Shippensburg (8-2)
Fairmont State (8-3)
Opponents record: 58-34
This schedule has been brutal and it doesn't let up anytime soon.
The Fairmont State game wrapped up the non-conference portion of the schedule. WCU and ESU remain in crossover in addition to the West brawls.

Originally posted by ironmaniup View PostThe other thing they were able to do last night was to pull away in the 2nd half. The press didn't work so well for fairmont. IUP's schedule from here on out is quite a bit easier too. If they get by WCU, only ESU may be the only ranked team left.
The other reality is they had no chance under the basket. None. They knew it and IUP knew they were just going to launch all night. Joe had the perimeter shut down for 98 percent of that game.
They definitely got flustered. When they tried doing a fake flop ... that's when you knew they were getting desperate.
Armoni and Malik are both about (legit) 6'4" and both nasty, quick defenders. They're both fast, strong, tough and annoy and pester people. Both are very physical and get right in peoples faces.
I thought Marko had another good game. Chucky did, too, in his short stint. Both Marko and Bearer hit some big shots.
Past two games are the best run of Dante's career. We saw this massive leap with DeVante Chance as a senior. We are now seeing it with Dante. He's never had this much talent around him, either, which obviously helps any PG.
The single biggest difference with this team is when the first 3 off the bench enter there isn't any fall off.
Armoni plays like a junior not a freshman.

Re: Iup basketball
Did not see it. Saw box score on 3s. Were the threes highly contested? Or were they open but just missed? Did iup use a tall guard on jolly to prevent those 25 ft threes?
