This will be the sweet memory for life; the recent blowouts will fade. A lot of grit shown to stay in it, and a confidence builder for the tough games to come.

ISU finally misses some free throws. We were lucky for that...but ISU was lucky for all our misses. I guess it kinda evened out there. This team is prone to long scoring droughts. Usually we have such a big lead it doesn't matter. ISU's offensive rebounding was outstanding, but how did the ball always seem to fall their way-that was weird.

This is a great win. It puts us in a good position for the 2 seed. We'll need to have some help to get the #1 and I don't see ISU losing to anybody else. ISU's splits against UI and MSU without losing to anybody else positions them well.

Tori Martell has hit a lot of big shots and had a lot of big games for MSU. This was one of her best. After hitting to tie it up she owned that OT-that was incredible.

Well I don’t have to go find a dark place to sulk tonight! I really want to head out for a beverage to celebrate...

This team has come an incredibly long way from the one that split its first two conference weekends against UNC and PSU, struggling mightily on offense in the process. Coach Binford, give her whatever raise she wants if we can because I'll be surprised if she doesn't start getting some offers that will be hard to turn down.

As you say, MSU is in great position for the #2 seed if they can get at least a split with Idaho next weekend. If it's a split and the two teams finish tied, MSU's sweep over NAU compared to Idaho's split would be the tiebreaker assuming MSU takes care of business against a one-win Sac State team on the last weekend. Not that it matters too much whether you're #2 or #3 in a neutral site tournament.

Too early to ask I suppose.....but some of you have been around the WBB program much longer than I (since I didn’t make it back to Montana until 2015).....but is this Binford’s best coaching job? She has won championships with a lot of great Bobcat teams with some solid, experienced teams.....but taking a team with only one senior and eight freshmen to a perhaps second place finish in the league has to rank right up there! As mentioned on another thread, the team has already exceeded my expectations no matter where they finish.

Probably deserves a separate discussion thread when season is over....but think about....and I will start a thread before the tourney.

Covid Sucks! I’m really missing attending games, but I’m glad i had some privacy to watch this one! The swearing and screaming wasn’t my best moments!

Tremendous win for the Bobcats and for the program! Shows a lot of heart to get a win like this. Some of our younger players got some unbelievable experience today! Going to be a fight with Idaho, but happy we’re at home!

Is it too early to say we’re going to be the team to beat in the BSC the next 5 years? I’m willing to pledge $50 to the keep Binford in Bozeman fund! 😂😂

Down three with 12 seconds I watched Jackson miss a three and ISU get the rebound and get fouled. Like an idiot I turned the game off thinking it was over. I see in the clip above, Martell tied it with a three. But how did we get the ball back? Did ISU miss both free throws??????

More importantly - does anyone know where I can watch the end of the game and the OT?
