    Team # Home Losses # Road Losses
    NDSU 1 3
    USD 1 3
    Denver 3 4
    Omaha 3 4
    Fort Wayne 3 5
    SDSU 2 6
    IUPUI 3 5
    Western 4 6
    Oral Roberts 5 7
    Evenly matched teams have a harder time winning on the road. Pretty obvious and the odds point that out. I'm pretty sure Gonzaga doesn't have a problem winning on the road in their conference and also don't have a hard time beating a team 3 times.

    Ya we are not the Zags. Go back and look at the stats over the years most teams losses in conference in basketball will come on the road. That is what I am pointing out to the people that cry every year about us "sucking" on the road. Its why it is said defend home court and at least split on the road.

    Omaha played us pretty closely at the SHAC. This will be another close contest. Hoping AJ comes back after poor shooting performance last game and drops 20.

    Did the team come back to Fargo after the Oral Roberts game?
    Or did they just go from Tulsa to Omaha?
    That would be an easier travel schedule, but budgets being
    what they are I would guess the team flew home after the Wednesday night game.

    Thought I herd on the insiders that they were on a bus. Could be wrong though.
