Hope this is a game where Thor, Costello, and Trueblood each get like 5-10 minutes.

I’d love to see 20 minutes of Brady. Unfortunately it won’t be on tv 

[Huskerpapa]

I bet they may have at least one Norwegian on their roster...They are 7-4 and currently have a losing conference record.   

[jayschool]

They're 7-4. Last game was Dec. 15, a 75-63 win against Minnesota-Duluth.

 

They shoot 43 percent from 3, and 81 percent from the line.

 

Leading scorer is Ryan Bruggeman at 23.2 ppg. He's a 6-0 sophomore from Pelican Rapids, Minnesota.

LIKELY STARTERS

Ryan Bruggeman, 6-0, So.

Taylor Schafer, 6-3, Sr. (12.1 ppg)

Kenny Byers, 6-4, So. (11.7 ppg)

Michael Lee, 6-6, Sr. 

Steven McNease, 6-6 Sr.

 

They'll go 8 deep.

1-3-1 could cause problems as will our man because we will have the height advantage.

Succinct and to the point. Outstanding work!

They no longer have a Creighton Prep grad on the team, so the chances of them bringing a Jaysker cheering section is none to minimal, as are the odds that one of their dudes will try to take out our best player on a fast break.

Any chance we might be looking ahead to the Maryland game?

Myra.  High chance of a Christmas hangover/look ahead.  Even then... that should take our margin of victory from 30+ to 20+

Not a fan of these types of games at all. Yes getting the bench guys some playing time is helpful but nothing else good comes from these type of matchups in my opinion.

The guys need a “scrimmage” against someone other than themselves to get back in the groove after a week off and getting away from basketball for Christmas. Don’t want to be shaking that off with maryland.

It's certainly much better than scheduling a team like Delaware State. That win hurt us more than ever playing them in the first place.

Yep true. Wasn’t thinking of the timing of it but that makes more sense. I was just thinking of the game itself.

It’s located in Marshall MN which isn’t terribly far from Minnesota’s “Pheasant Capitol” of Madelia on Hiway 60.

[jimmykc]

I wonder how they would match up against Nebraska Wesleyan?

The Fighting Hornets already have three wins this year. One is against a rock formation or a terrier (Cairn) and another is against Delaware (big rivalry win).

 

But this one is my favorite:

NWU is in the same conference as Coe College, Creighton's most recent foe. How'd that go? Of course, Wesleyan is the defending national champs.

[Handy Johnson]

All kidding aside, I'd bet money the Prairie Wolves would give us more of a game then the Golden Mustangs will. Forget about that Creighton "Let it Fly" BS,  those Weslyan boys can fill it up like nobodies business. Hell, I'd even put money on an alumni team of "Plainsmen" led by Dana Janssan over USWMS...

Miles' former player is now the Southwest Minnesota State Head Coach, Brad Bigler.

This is better than the 350th ranked team, like Nebraska played last season. The NET rankings for NU wouldn't be irrevocably broken by this matchup like the RPI was last year against the Delaware State's of the world. Sheesh, *that* was awful.

Don't look now, but Mississippi Valley State is #351 in Kenpom and #347 in the NET rankings.

Good thing we beat 'em by 70 points.
