Redbirds vs. Cardinals

From the ISU web site...

•Illinois State is 8-45 against Top-25 teams.

Yikes! Kinda reminds me of our '95 team that had high hopes only to get absolutely smashed by a pretty good Cincinnati squad.

With Louisville coming of a loss (to Duke), I think we're catching them at the wosrt possible time. Praying it will be close....

Redbirds up 23-12 with 8 minutes left in the first half

Louisville is really missing their big center inside while Brown and Carmichael are eating up the Cards

Illinois State looking really good. If the Louisville fans aren't scared of he Redbirds yet...they should be.

Holy crap what a dunk by Carmichael. Called for a charge-not sure on that one. 2nd foul on Jackie. 13 points, 7 boards. ISU has 5 turnovers in last 6 trips

33-25 at half for the Redbirds. Carmichael and Brown with 13 each.

Pretty good half...I'll take the 8pt lead. We're definately not intimidated today...but the fouls and at times sloppy play is a concern. But we're fighting today!

Louisville is gonna make you look sloppy. They force 20 turnovers a game. Got UNI for 22, got Missouri, with their great point guard, for 23. They do look a lot different without their big guy in the middle, would've loved to see how Carmichael did against him, the ones they've got in this game are no match for Jackie.
