Midway through the first half and Cox has failed to make the switch to Midco's game broadcast on Channel 3...

This is really frustrating.

When Obanor and Nzekwesi were both in the game, we were playing man to man defense but NDSU could not miss a 3 pointer.  So he takes Obanor out and ORU switches to the zone defense and NDSU cools off some from 3 point range.  For the rest of the half, Obanor and Nzekwesi subbed in for each other and stayed in the zone and started to extend the lead again.  Am I right on this?  Usually the zone opens up the 3 point shooting for the other team.  It seems that Paul Mills doesn't like to run the zone when Obanor and Nzekwesi are both in the game.

We should have played better defense when we had the double digit lead, but NDSU unfortunately really heated up from 3 point range and they were not all easy looks.

Better to be up by 5 at half than down by 5.  I'll take it.

Just texted with an ORU representative in Sioux Falls; he's being told it's a "tech problem on Cox's end" that they are "trying to fix".

"ESPN+ Free 7-Day Trial", here I come!  LOL

Need Obanor and Nzekwesi out there at the same time.  Put the defense on their heels.

you guys gonna score in 2nd?  lol 

(ps. the last 3 calls on ORU have been the weakest ever, this could be a Loooong Game literally if the refs keep that up)

Game is probably over.

Malone just dribbling for 10-15 seconds every possession.

Wish they would call it both ways down low

I agree Obanor got fouled but wasn't called.  Every drive by NDSU is being called a foul on ORU.  ORU needs to adjust to that and start driving to the basket on each possession.

He did the same thing in Fargo at the start of the game when they were going wild from 3.  Refuses to call TO's when needed, waits for the media timeouts instead. 

Always nice to have those extra timeouts in your pocket at the end of a double-digit loss! 🤬
