Wasn’t able to make this one. The good Pokes showed up in the first half. JJ unstoppable. Dalton peppy, Herndon in a coma. Hope Herndon can have a good second half. Go pokes

Nice to see James and Dalton both have good starts. Redding played really great D on Mcewen when he was in. Let’s finish strong and get to 7-4 and sole possession of 3rd

Great Win pokes. Definitely the smoothest win this team has had all season. 5 of our last 6 games.

I was at this one. great win, we played solid d forced lots of turnovers and attacked the rim. We shot 50% from the floor mostly because we had a ton of layups and dunks. To top it off we even had 6 offensive rebounds.

I really liked what I saw tonight. The kids looked rested, and other than their Nevada win, they played probably their most complete game of the year. Terrific effort from all involved. Well done!!

I caught the second half I wasn't expecting much since we had such a big lead and as expected we won but second half could have been better at least we didn't give up a huge lead and struggle to win.

I never realize how spoiled we are with announcers until they aren't there.

Was a great game. Dissapointed in the student turnout for this one. Good thing the team didn't need much energy from the crowd. Surprised there wasn't more talk about it here. Have we given up on the team? We are currently in 3rd place. HAve a tough road trip while other teams around us have an easier 2 games so will most likely drop in the standings. If we can get 1 out of the next 2 that will be great. But it will be hard to do.

Would love to see our team remain in 3rd place come tourney time, but it will be tough. A 4-3 or a 3-4 finish is probably where we are headed, with tough games at SDSU, Boise, UNLV and Fresno. If we can sneak out a win or two there, we will be in great shape. If Dalton and James play like they did last night, sky’s the limit

Maybe, just maybe, Edwards learned something from the Fresno game. And that is tight, aggressive defense works - sticking closely to your man - going after the ball. I think that was the main difference I saw last night. The Pokes have the bench strength to cover the extra effort (and rest needed) for this.

That's what happens when you get drubbed by 25 by Fresno and lose to a CRAP CSU team. Those were the two biggest crowds of the season

How Ut. State has 6 conference wins is the mystery of the century. I haven't seen AF play, yet, but the utags seems like easily the worst team in the conference. They suck. They have no one that even remotely scares me. Pathetic athletes and are nearly as skinny as we are.
