The Bobcat Nation

Our girls are up 22-14 through one. ISU made a big mistake at the end of the quarter fouling Darian White on a three-ball.

38-25 at half. Cats are clearly better at both ends of the court.

60-37 going into the 4th quarter. Lead was as high as 25 at one point.

74-55 final!

Really enjoyed watching our Bobcats on Pluto. Coach Binford has a good thing going. I also really liked the ISU announcers. Very professional. Go 'Cats!

Nice to get a blowout win for once against Idaho State, who have given MSU absolute fits over the years. Idaho and NAU also won tonight so MSU maintains its 3 game lead. On paper Weber should be another easy win Saturday, but you never know...

Agreed on all counts. ISU's TV crew had a lot of good things to say about our girls.

I texted my dad who was texting me at the same time about the announcers being good.

Any win against ISU is good. There youth and inexperience shows this year but they always play tough physical defense. I'd like to see our TO's go down soon.

I was a little worried about this one. ISU has been hot and they are usually tough at home. Really surprised to see us in complete control the whole way. I think our team might be pretty good!

What a great win on Kryptonite Court at Idaho State (although Katie Bussey at least cracked the magic with her 42 points over there). Totally pleased about six players in double figures, but would not have thought it possible without Oliana being one of them. That’s the strongest part of this team — they are truly a team. Their ball movement and anticipation is getting better each game. Would like to see less than 20 turnovers. They are getting closer to putting a really good game together, and woe be to the opponents when that starts happening. I hope they are peaking right at tournament time.

Did anyone hear what happened with Madison Jackson? Looks like Oliana either has further healing required, or she’s fighting a bug or something. She put her energy into defense, and did not seem to have the usual spring in her offensive legs.

Congratulations to Coach Bin, and a really super bunch of students who play pretty good basketball. Go, ‘Cats!!

This may have been the most impressive win the ladies have had all year. And imagine UNDEFEATED in conference play--ON THE ROAD.

This team is running away from the conference. A pleasure to watch. Get the turnovers down.

Can't wait to see the rest of the home games.

Go Cats!

To echo everyone else, what a dominating road team win at a tough place! Accomplished even with Squires being way out of sorts for some reason and Jackson, apparently, not even making the trip.
The announcers were the best I’ve listened to this season. They were very knowledgeable on our team as well as the rest of the conference. They must have Belgrade’s ear in their belief that Darian White is Freshman of the Year favorite .

What’s our single game record for offensive rebounds?

One of the comments those announcers made last night that caught my attention: "How Boise State ever let Darian White escape is a mystery. " Then the other guy said something about Boise signing John Stockton's daughter. That was news to me. Remember, John was our asst. coach for a while when his daughter Lindsey played for the Cats!

That's what I thought he said, but the only Stockton daughter I see that is playing is Laura at Gonzaga. I didn't see any Stockton on the Boise State roster.

MSU is a better school and has better wbb team than Boise St. The Big Sky and Mtn West are about equal in RPI Rating at 18 & 17, respectively.

MSU is ranked 87 in RPI and BSU is 127. Other than staying home, Darian and Madison made the smart choice.

Not sure about that comment. The only remaining Stockton sibling after Laura (Gonzaga) is a football-playing boy. But Boise State did miss out — or more likely Trish just won the battle for Darian.

MSU is a much better option than Boise when it comes to women’s basketball.
