Oregon State (11/25/24)

[CMJ]

The Beavers off a tough loss against their cross state rival come calling.  Hopefully we can get a good crowd, but the week of Thanksgiving...I have doubts.

[untcampbell]

Email to some (probably football season ticket holders that don't also have hoops season tickets) offering 2 free tickets for the OrState game. Might help.

It's sad that a we have to do that sort of promotion for a team that's not even five years removed from making the Elite 8, but I can't say I disagree with it.

[untcampbell]

Agree, but they are targeting proactively that niche. To get the free tickets, you will get a contact from NT tickets to discuss coming aboard for season tickets. I actually think its a pretty good idea.

We are OSU's first away game.  It has to be pretty rare nowadays to get this far into a MBB season, with all these Classics/Tournaments/etc, and not play at least one neutral or away.   All five of their games at Gill Coliseum.

Come on people. Free tickets to view Beavers.  Pack the Pit.

The email went out on Thursday.

Granted, UNT athletics should probably know that I have had two basketball season tickets for six years now. But this is also the same school that offered me an upgrade to the Hub Club for the ECU game as a season ticket holder for Football... who has had Club tickets for almost 10 seasons.

I think this is just a spray and pray campaign. They aren't really filtering the list.

After football's collapse this year I am desperate for a run to the Big Dance in basketball. Sports gods can we please not be mediocre in something!?!

ESPN Spread is NT -6.5

You mean you hate it when he fades away at the basket when he has his guy beat?

[Big Z]

Mutumbo says NO! 

[CMJ]

OSU 6 --------- NT 6

 

11:53 to go

 

 

Both teams having trouble putting it in the basket.

[CMJ]

NT 14 --------- OSU 11

 

7:50 to go

 

 

Winning some 50/50 balls and a few makes giving us the advantage.

3s not falling despite good looks. We’re making them work for their bucket. Not helping that we’re falling short offensively. 

[CMJ]

OSU 19 --------- NT 18

 

2:51 to go

 

 

A lot of scrappy play by both squads.

[NT80]

Uniform police:  I approve of these home uniforms!

Undersized, athletic team that plays physical D.

Need to apply some offensive pressure to get them some fouls. Too much standing, they're very "handsy" when we penetrate.
