Wow. Tough game for first-round. Former Mid-Con, and future Horizon opponent. We need to pack Beeghly for this game folks. We should be able to win, and maybe even convincingly.

Oakland has a very good coach.  They did beat Valpo, E. Michigan and the top two teams in the Summit in SDSU and NDSU.  They also played Tennessee, Ohio, Alabama so they are well tested.  Will be a very tough game for us.

I forgot they also played Pitt and lost in overtime as well as Boise St and Michigan ST.  Looks like they had a tougher non-conf. schedule than any team we played.

Their leading scorer has made the most 3s in the nation with 134. Averaging almost 22 points a game. Gotta shut him down in order to have any shot
