One thing for sure this year. The bunnies will not have their fans there.

I'm surprised though at the decision.

So glad SDSU or USD fans will not able to attend. All they do is boo EVERY foul call against them, or fouls they thought should be called. I went to the USD games this past Sunday and thought USD fans were better than SDSU fans but they proved me wrong. Terrible fans who apparently don't know much about the game. They don't deserve to host the tourney in their home state and somehow they feel entitled.

Well the top two seeds are playing without one of their best players for both the Yotes and the Bunnies

With that being said SDSU should hammer Omaha prediction 81-54

South Dakota should sneak by Western Illinois 68-62

I am worried about UMKC---how will the game be officiated? Will they allow them to get into us or shove on drives? It does help us vs. UMKC that are guards are bigger!!!
NDSU 71 UMKC 60

Oral Roberts i think will play outstanding vs UND----78-64; feel Oral Roberts will make the championship game---will get hot

Saw a note on Bison Report on how NDSU had lost 67% of it’s scoring from last season. I would add to that the Bison also lost their 3 primary ball handlers (Shahid, Ward, Hunter) - and the JC PG recruited to take over suffered a traumatic lower leg injury. That got my curiosity up to compare numbers from last year and see who improved and picked up the slack.
Big steps forward by these players - congrats!

Sam Greisel (injured at beginning of 2019-20 season)

2020 — 24.1 mpg - 6.6 ppg - 5.5 rpg - 42% fg - 27% 3fg
2021 - 33.5 mpg - 11.7 ppg - 6.5 rpg - 44% fg - 35% 3fg

Tyree Eady

2020 - 26.4 mpg — 6.7 ppg - 3.9 rpg - 45% fg - 36% 3fg
2021 - 33.8 mpg - 11.1 ppg - 5.5 rpg - 51% fg - 42% 3fg

Maleeck Harden-Hayes

2020 —— 7 mpg - 1.7 ppg - 1.7 rpg - 36% fg - 43% 3fg
2021 - 26.6 mpg - 9.7 ppg - 5.4 rpg - 52% fg - 38% 3fg

Jarius Cook - redshirted last season - now a RSoph - big jump in his numbers also from his true freshman season

imo the Coyotes did the Bison a favor by throwing both a trapping press and Zone D’s at them. Hopefully the lessons are learned and success can be had at the Summit League Tournament. NDSU certainly has the shooters to take advantage of the holes in a Zone D...... See Eady & MHH especially.

Is that an NCAA decision? Surely it's not a decision from the state of South Dakota?

[Professor Chaos]

Pretty sure it's a Summit League decision.

Pretty sure it's a Summit League decision.

It could be the fault of whomever is in charge of the Pentagon; they haven't allowed fans in for games other than mom and dad all winter; contrast that to the Premeir Center which can host 6000 plus fans for a Stampede hockey game...….. must be herd immunity/mentality
