    Agreed. The Bunnies needed a ton of things to go exactly their way once we went up by 9. We only needed a couple things to go our way. SDSU created their own breaks and won out. I'm sure every one of our guys is thinking about the little things they could have done better to dictate the outcome. Exciting game and maybe some optimism that we can compete for a title in Sioux Falls. Much better vibe from this team than the last couple seasons when we peaked too early.
    North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.

    No cred? So you disagree that this team is built to run a downhill offense rather than a stall offense that Dave runs the whole game. Not sure what games you've been watching but what have they been doing successfully on offensive that's led to this turnaround?

    Been shooting 3s pretty well as of late.

    13/29 vs SDSU for 44.8%. Very good percentage.

    For the season: 255/705 for 36.2%. 31st nationally for most attempted 3's. Tied for 96th nationally in 3 point FG %.

    NDSU opponents 3's on the season: 199/556 for 35.8%.

    Savannah State leads the country in 3 point FG attempts with 992 in only 25 games! That's 39.68 3 point FG attempts per game.
    Lehigh leads NCAA Division 1 schools in 3 point FG percentage with 44.0%.

    3 point shooting has improved a lot. I'd like to see them work inside out a bit. Get the ball to Rocky or Ghu(when he plays) on the block. That would open up more good looks from outside.

They're making a run in second half so we let them roll the ball past half court to save time while we had a sizeable lead. They did this at least twice! With 58 seconds left up three and the ball we take a time out, not sure what the hell Dave's drawing up but the first thing you have to do is get the damn ball in bounds, had a time out yet to use but we turn it over instead. Then we fricking foul them up three just to keep them from shooting a 3?

    The teams come a long ways over the last 6 games but I'm still not sure Dave is the right guy to get the most out of them. We'll see I guess because it's looking more like he'll be back next season.
    All of this, thank you! I can't believe all of you on here saying this one isn't on the coach. Yes, we missed some free throws that could've iced the game but if the game was coached better we never would've been in that situation. Absolutely unacceptable not to get the ball in bounds with 58 seconds left. Not taking advantage of SDSU putting King on Rocky down the stretch was a complete oversight. I'm okay with fouling to prevent the 3 but not unless it's under 3 seconds of game clock left, as we saw it leaves too much time otherwise. Our players gave their all, still could've pulled it out with some clutch free throws but coaching down the stretch lost us that one.

    The problem with living and dying with the 3 is come tourney time it takes 1 off game and you are done. Tough to put together 3 good shooting performances in a row in only a few days. That is where getting to the rim and working the inside game has to be able to step up and be a threat.

    What is interesting is that SDSU needs NDSU to beat UNO in order to claim the 1 seed!

    Agree, Vinnie is very good at getting to the rim. Our bigs need to get out and run pick and rolls.
