MBB plays at 2
So, not much to comment on MBB since I was following on my phone while at the Doyt.
BG played Weber State in Tempe and lost in the final seconds. We had a 10-point lead with 14 left to play in the game (84% chance to win) and WSU scored the next 9 points to cut it to 1. The game bounced back and forth and then WSU went up 4 or so and BG came back and with 2:09 the game was tied. BG got two stops and failed to score on theirs. Campbell was fouled with :48 left. He split the pair to put BG up 1. WSU made a layup with :28 to go up 1. BG had last shot, Johnson missed a 3FG with :06 left and it was over.
Khayat and Towns both were DNP. My sources (FalconMedia) say Khayat was injured late against Bellarmine. No idea about Towns.
Butler had 16 on 4 of 8 and 1 of 5 shooting. Campbell had 13 on 4 of 9 2FG shooting. Green had 10. Felt added 7 rebounds in 11 minutes. Overall, BG shot 45% from 2FG, 29% from 3FG and made 86% at the line. WSU was very similar in all areas, except making 63% on 2FG, which was the difference.
Next up is New Mexico State for the 2-5 Falcons. They were picked #7 in CUSA, which is the #10 conference. They are 3-3 and 2-4 in D1 games. They beat Utah Tech (295), TAM-Corpus Christi (208), lost to Dayton (24) by 19, UNLV (108) and then Pepperdine (255) yesterday. That's 3 losses in a row.
They are really struggling to shoot the ball.
We'll get more into it tomorrow.
