Zips vs. Northern Illinois

Experience almost certainly played a factor. NIU is young, but Miami has seven or eight seniors.

I said this earlier.  NIU is a "roughhouse" kind of basketball team.  They will win games that way, but they probably don't have enough basketball talent to make a title run.

Yep.  You got the ghost out of the machine.

I guess it's no big deal, but I am curious. Did anyone else buy 50/50 tickets at this game.  Was there ever a drawing?  Did I just miss it?

They announced the winner just before the beginnig of the 2nd half.

Little late to this thread.  Coach Dambrot getting the crowd fired up after the technical did seem reminiscent of Hurley's recent ejection at ASU.  There's a fine line between a coach being combative and just being obnoxious.  As seen below, Hipsher, who is on his 9th coaching life, still hasn't learned the difference.  And I just hated having him on the bench.  Yelled and screamed for its own sake.  I doubt I would enjoy Hurley's antics if he were the Zips coach.  My thought is that Coach Dambrot strikes the right balance.

Although that was two years ago, If I were coaching at Texas Rio Grand Valley, I'd try to get thrown out of the game too.
