    Default 1/16 at Denver

    Bison men at Denver tonight to take on the last place Pioneers. I believe that Denver was expected to be quite a bit better this year but are struggling especially as of late at 0-5 in early conference play. They played USD tough at home losing by only 1 point but then got blown out by UND by 21 at home. The Bison are 0-6 on the road this year so something has to (stop) give(ing). Vegas has the Bison at 2.5 point favorites. I hate to say it but if I were a betting man*…..

    Nonetheless the Bison need to figure out how to get a few wins on the road in conference play... no better/easier place to start than Denver it appears.




    *Hoping for a successful reverse jinx here.

    Did Amigo finally graduate/use eligibility?
    I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

    Yep. But Joe Rosga is back for about his 7th year. Their best player is probably Creighton grad transfer (and Denver native) Ronnie Harrell Jr.

    I found that I have this on Direct TV. We absolutely have a MUST win tonight. Gotta win some on the road, get over that stigma. Then need to win on Saturday and get on a little roll.
    Everyone just relax, all right? Believe me, if there's one thing Ron Burgundy knows, it's women.

    Yeah, the game is on Altitude for those with Direct TV or Dish. Definitely a game we need with four of our next five on the road after tonight. I really thought Denver was going to be tough this year, especially after they gave K-State a game but they haven't done much after that.

    Ugh. Was hoping to watch this but have Sling. Wasn't the whole idea of ESPN+ to get Summit games televised? The Summit schedule is so discombobulated it's hard to follow. End of rant. Bison will pull out a close one.

    Was surprised to see Denver’s struggles (5-14, 0-5 Summit) - they were a preseason #3 pick in the Summit and returned 1st team pick Joe Rosga (16.1 ppg). Rosga is struggling with his shot this year (39.5% vs 48% last season) and is down to 12.5 ppg. They also have a name-brand coach in Rodney Billups (Chauncey’s brother) in his 3rd year.
    Billups has been active recruiting Minnesota for talent, including Rosga (Cretin Derham Hall), also Ade Murkey, a 6’ 5” JR from Minneapolis (St Croix Lutheran).
    Denver also got a good recruit in the early signing period, 6’ 9” Robert Jones from Prior Lake.
