This one started off about as pretty as the football game this morning. NDSU was up 14-10 through seven minutes of play, thanks in part to the decision to, as always, start David McCormack at center. I'm just a casual blogger, but it is my opinion that a prominent D1 basketball team should not start players who are objectively bad at the sport. Again though, just a blogger. To that point in the game, McCormack was 0-4 shooting with only a rebound to his credit on the statsheet.
By the ten minute mark Kansas was down 18-15. NDSU was scorching the nets from three and weren't giving up their lead easily.
