- Record is 3-7.

- Notable losses have been to Virginia Tech (lost by 35); Colorado (lost by 44); Bradley (lost by 32); Columbia (lost by 11); CCSU (lost by 8); Merrimack (lost by 2) and Quinnipiac (lost by 26).

- Their 3 wins have occurred vs Univ of Maine Farmington; Univ of Maine Ft Kent and University of New England. I kid you not.

- Their roster is a United Nations. Canada - 4 players; Serbia - 2 players; and players from Turkey; Slovenia; Nigeria and Latvia.

- No one averages more than 10 PPG.

- They shoot 24% from 3 point land and average 21 3 PT attempts a game.

- FT Shooting is at 72%.

- They have averaged 58 points per game to date.

I think Maine would beat Mississippi Valley State. The Delta Devils are possibly the worst defensive team in America.

There are D2 teams that would beat MVSU. I base that on watching part of four MVSU games this season.

I trust you have a legitimate reason for watching 4 MVSU games. Are you hoping magically Jerry Rice puts on a uniform and enters the game?

Was wondering the same thing. Not sure I care to watch one RU Maine game after reading about the Black Bears.

Is Mississippi Valley St being coached by the same Lindsay Hunter that played PG for the Pistons? There is a Hunter on the roster must be his son. Wow they give up 45% from 3, 358 out of 358.

I used to teach at UM-Farmington and I didn't even know they had a basketball team.

Can only mean they shoot a season high against us.

How did Purdue do against us? Besides being #1, there were in the top 5 scoring? / shooting 3's.

Stats are interesting...but for 1 game, the fluctuation between the Expected vs Actual (Chi Squared...if I remember my old stat class) isn't unheard of.

That's why we play the games!

I mean…I was right. And you’ve watched as long as I have - teams and individuals seem to have career or season best performances against us.

Harper tied his career hi against Purdue...so they could be singing the same song.

My point is that for 1 game ....it seems like anything COULD happen. Remember Chaminade!

It happens.

We won...enjoy it~

There was a guy that came in with one three-pointer made on the season who hit three of four against us today.

Not sure what leads you to believe I’m not enjoying it, but it was indeed a nice win.

Thank you sir for the $100

Bet the over (mid game, I didn't realize was an early start) and covered it easily. They gave up 84 to Alabama State, a team that is 1-17 on the road last two seasons lol
