Well, it's here, conference play officially starts today. Time to really see where this team stacks up. First opponent is the Leathernecks who have notoriously given us problems playing at their place and I don't expect that to change as long as Trenton Massner is there. They don't play with a ton of size so NDSU will have an advantage there but if they continue to double hard in the post like a lot of teams have against NDSU this season we need to be able to make the outside shots to get them away from it. Good news is coming off a game where we did just that, bad news is it was 8 days ago against an NAIA school so hopefully we've kept that momentum.
Keys to watch
1. Is Andrew Morgan still in the doghouse or does he get the start
2. Is Tajavis Miller back out there after the ankle injury - huge boost if he is, especially defensively
3. Do we see Dez McKinney at all, conference play was his target return date
