SFA notes

Common opponent - NDSU 80 Florida A & M 66One of the game's major storylines will undoubtedly be how the 'Jacks' smothering defense handles a North Dakota State that is averse to turning the ball over. SFA heads into the Tuesday night tilt leading the nation in steals per game (14.2), total steals (85) and turnovers forced per game (25), while the Bison's 54 total turnovers are the 24th-fewest in all of NCAA Division I men's basketball. In all, SFA receives 34.9-percent of its offense (185 of 529 points) off of opponent turnovers
SFA 79 Florida A & M 63
SFA is 5-1 on the season, only loss to Mississippi State 80-75 (next opponent for the Bison after this game)
SFA was the preseason conference favorite in the Southland. Last season Stephen F Austin was 18-15 (12-6).

Welcome, I don't like this match-up for NDSU. High pressure teams like SFA usually posses disaster for NDSU. NDSU has a hard time handling pressure and make many head scratching decisions and passes when the pressure is high. Paul Miller started really slow for NDSU but is coming on as of late and NDSU will need the vintage Paul Miller if NDSU is to have a chance. Holyfield is an impressive player for SFA and will give us troubles. If Bison handle the pressure well and can take care of the ball I think it is a game that will go down to the wire and the Bison will have a chance to pull this game out on the road. If they don't handle the pressure D well Bison will lose by double digits. I suspect it will be a close game and a fun one to watch tonight. Go Bison!
You backdoor cut them all day long will slow their aggressive defense. Finish at the hoop strong and if they get fouled make the free throws. Yes, Bison can struggle with teams like this. But there is no reason Bison can not win this game. Don't be in a rush and set the tempo for the game.

So NDSU loses to SFA.....SDSU beat Ole Miss. Looks like another crappy year at Premier Center where I only go to one session. (Or is that too hopeful?)
