Big game at Mabee Center tomorrow night....probably the most important one so far this season.....SDSU comes in at 15-8 (6-2) and ORU at 11-9 (4-3)….this is a MUST win if the Good Guys want to have a shot to finish in the top 3 in the Summit League......hopefully a nice loud Wednesday Night crowd rooting for the home team....TheEagleman has a real good feeling about this one....I am not going to guarantee a win but feel certain that ORU will be ready to get some revenge for the 17 point pounding we took in Brookings earlier this month....both teams have won 4 of their last 5....should be a dandy game and TheEagleman would expect ORU to be a 2 or 3 point favorite on the Vegas line.....right now I am loving the home team......more to come tomorrow.....GO BLUE!!!....😎:tb-blue:

ORU opens as a 4 point favorite in this contest....that's some nice Vegas respect for the Good Guys being favored over the first place team in the Summit....As stated above, TheEagleman really likes ORU in this one....I will wait to see what the O/U is before making my wagers.....but loving the Golden Eagles for this one at Mabee Center.....😎

Last time they played, Doug Wilson just completely outplayed Eman. He had 25 points, 10 rebounds and 4 blocked shots. They are both player of the year candidates but Eman needs to step up and play at Wilson's level for ORU to win tomorrow night.

Gotta believe E-Man will remember the schooling he took from Wilson earlier this month in Brookings when he takes the Mabee Center court tonight....the entire ORU squad should be looking for a little payback from that 96-79 beating by the Jacks.....this is a huge game...most important of the season thus far for the home team.....we need to play stronger D and score on them inside.....a few 3s would be helpful also......Coach Mills will have the team fired up heading into this one and TheEagleman is confident of victory......Let's hope the students show up in full force....Good Guys still a 4 point favorite and the O/U sits at 154.....I love ORU and the Over tonight.....ORU gets a little payback pulling away in the 2nd half for a double digit win.....ORU 89 SDSU 79...….GO BLUE!!!... :e_nzekwesi::tb-white::k_obanor:

Making the trek to the game tonight and hoping for a great contest and an Eagle win! Hopefully there's a really nice crowd to support our boys.

Last week’s game at USD was a “missed opportunity”, but a win tonight against SDSU is crucial to staying competitive in the Summit race.  ORU must continue to defend its home court, especially against the top tier teams in the conference. 

Earning a 1 or 2 seed for the tourney is more important than ever this year.  Not only does the 1/2 seed gain a day of rest with a first round win, but the first round opponent (7/8 seed) will likely not have a “Dakota” on their jersey.  With an easier remaining schedule than the rest of league (ORU should be favored in at least 7 of the 9 games) ORU is still a strong contender for a 1/2 seed, but has no margin of error to stub their toe.  Should be a great game tonight!

Excellent analysis, TrueBlue….should be some great basketball tonight at Mabee Center with lots of excitement....Good Guys have to win....we should be very motivated by getting a 1 or 2 seed and the revenge factor for what SDSU did to us up in Brookings....ORU needs to bring it early and often.....time to kick some serious Jackrabbit A$$….😎

Good news is we are only down by 4 at half and haven’t shot the ball well at all.  E-man bringing it tonight!  Need some other guys to step up this 2nd half.  We have to shoot better than 34% from the field and 21% from 3. Let’s go 🦅
