    Everyone loses when Doty wins.

    • Despite DB not playing and NW going 4-12 at the foul line Ben blamed himself for the loss.

        That's what a good coach does in public. Takes responsibility for the loss, then works the team hard to correct flaws in the next practice.

          Yeah, that’s pretty standard coach speak. No loss is a good loss, but I’ve heard Ben (and other coaches) say on a few occasions how it’s easier to coach after a loss. Players are a little more open to suggestion (or demands) when everything isn’t perfect.

            • Yeah, okay ... NW gets in a "knock-the-rust-off-game" against Clarke today after a 12-day layoff due to the break. HC McCollum mentioned during the post-game that the Bearcats only had one practice day before the game with Clarke today. Concerned again with this Bearcat team's "energy and intensity". I think that's the fifth game in a row he has mentioned that same concern since the game vs MOSO.

              Crazy thing about the NW schedule this season. The Bearcats are 11-1 now. Season started November 5 when they faced three consecutive ranked teams ... all on the road. The game this afternoon at Lamkin Bearcat Arena was the fifth home game for NW. Funny thing, this Bearcat team has never had a home game yet with students in session due to all the breaks ... Thanksgving, Finals/Commencement, and Christmas breaks ... and those NW students will continue to be on Christmas break when they face Northeastern Oklahoma this weekend on Saturday. And, that little "no-NW students-in-session" streak will continue with Bearcat home games vs Rogers State on January 2 and then Missouri Western on January 7. NW students will finally be in session with classes on the NW campus for their very first home game scheduled at Lamkin-Bearcat Arena on January 19 vs UCM. NW basketball season kicked off Nov 5. It will be January 19 when NW students will finally be on campus in session to see their first home game. Welcome to Bearcat Basketball!

              • Gotta say, tho ... the NW Alumni and Maryville community have really turned out CRAZY GOOD for this Bearcat team. Will be interesting to see how NW students will respond with their first opportunity to these Back-To-Back-To-Back NCAA DII Champions.

                  It's a little known fact NW Alumni who live out of town, even in Iowa, are not only welcome to come back for games it is actually encouraged! ;-)

                  • NW 79 NE OK 58. Great defense by the ‘Cats(NEwas averaging 84 pts a game). Huge and loud crowd

                    • Does anyone know why Luke only played the first 5 min. or so of the game with NSU?

                      • It wasn’t because of his charges as he’s cut down on his charging fouls so far this season

                        • I wondered that while watching too. He looked fine and was engaged while on the bench, so it would all be speculation on my part. He’ll be needed tonight to help deal with that BIG hoss Rogers has. Rogers is a curious team… 8-4, beat Emporia, lost to Northeastern.

                          • NW takes down a tough physical RSU 87-65 at home

                            • Northwest seems to have put the anomaly that was their performance from the free throw line in Emporia behind them. In the last 2 games, as a team, they've connected on 49 of their 54 shots from the stripe. We've talked about the differences in the way the team plays offensively... they should continue to get a lot of chances from the line as much as they attack the basket, so shooting at a high clip is obviously important.

                                As per Ben he struggled right off the bat & passed up an open 3 so Ben subbed him out, the team then ended up on a 20-0 run while he was out and Daniel was playing well so why mess with a good thing. He played good vs RSU
