What’s the format? I would think 4 bottom seeds ‘play in’ to set up an 8 team tourney? I don’t recall seeing the plan.

I used to like the old format where top two seeds byed into the quarters, 3-4 got one bye. Gave the regular season more emphasis

Via the Big West site, we are in 3rd winning percentage wise. Not sure how that will translate to seeding when cancelled games get mixed in. Love to see a season ending sweep of Hawaii but think split is more probable

those don’t count, do they? That’s the case on the men’s side

two impressive wins for UND

I was following on live stats and the thread line showed ‘Davis scoreless in last 2:30’ then ‘last 3:30’ and finally ‘last 4:45’. Luckily they were scoreless in last 5:00!

We have several guys in foul trouble with 12 to go. I’m following via game cast cuz 3 grandkids are here. Not big bball fans at 4,4 and 6!

Seems like Saturday games have a lot of fouls. Lazy defense and a desire to keep tempers at bay?

you jinxed it! Missed 6 in a row. Both teams a bit sloppy the last few minutes

thanks; I couldn’t watch most of the game until the end. Koehler hit some key FTs down the stretch. I think Les liked him in at the end got that and that he’s a smart defender. I wish his footwork was a bit better down low cuz he often gets the ball with a clear path when defenders are pressuring us late in the game

you mentioned the blocked shots - was Koehler a victim of many of those? He was 1-11 from the floor (rest of the team was shooting about 46%).

Our defense will keep us in games even when our shooting is just okay. The defense in the last couple minutes was impressive. Poly had to take a lot of clock to finally get a contested shot. Koehler and I think Squire had a double team tie up in the last minute that essentially ended the game.

thanks for the correction. looks like he lost a 'r' about midway down the thread!

looks like Les is taking advantage of the ‘free year’ to give some young guys time without risking losing eligibility. Last weekend, we saw Ran Pehka get quality first half minutes, today we got Bora. Bora seemed like he met the challenge well

Heard the poly has postponed their second game. Also EWU coach tested positive, apparently only one on the team

Caught the last 5 minutes on BWTV. Got a little dicey when it got to 6. I don’t like USF
Going ‘4-out’ with 2 minutes to go trying to milk the clock, but poly couldn’t take advantage of the lack of offense. Defense was outstanding down the stretch as was FT shooting. Sweep tomorrow

My live stat is stuck at 10:00 us up 12. I had a zoom meeting trying to follow on my phone. Updates?

starting off cold, 30% from the floor (v their 50), but only down 16-15 with 7:30 to go in the half. little rusty after the layoff?

i had to look up who he was!

I have to think the good numbers have more to do with the healthy Davis program focusing on keeping the population of the largest city healthy, than sitting the basketball teams. I’m very cautious about COVID, but I think the Yolo folk ignored the level we tested athletes. Makes no sense that gathering 75 tested athletes is more dangerous than 25 tested athletes.


Okay....back to football. My apologies for the detour. Man I wish we were playing Saturday. Could have been a 5-0 weekend v poly with the bball teams seeeping!

Believe it was Yolo since other cal colleges were full practices back in fall. Why 25? Who knows. As for science, we’ll figure out the right standards years down the road.

I think the only COVID specific thing we’ve had to solely deal with is the practices with reduced numbers. Up to this weekend, we were restricted to groups of 25. Now we’re at 75. I don’t think anyone else has had to deal with that, even Poly.
