Well we all know that Kolpack won out on the FCS Predictions this fall, so let’s see who knows more about basketball! Here are our predictions for Sioux Falls. Just a reminder the Bison Media Blog team will be at the Tournament starting on Sunday, we’ll have a between-games show on Sunday afternoon to wrap up the women’s game and preview the men and then a postgame show with the men on Sunday night.

Didn’t NDSU men’s team just lose to Western in Fargo?
Why will they beat them in Sioux Falls?
cause it’s the Bison Media Blog…that’s why. I certainly hope they do!
That game didnt mean anything. Isnt that the response I always here when this team loses.
I’lll stick to my prediction that the Bison win 2 in the tournament losing in the championship to Oakland. I may be wrong but wrong but all you have to do in the tourney is string 3 games together. Should be a fun couple of days. Go Bison.
I predict there wont be the usual 100 crazy ndsu fans behind the basket, none of us are going, maybe 2,3 sad in deed.
I predict this post gets deleted, even though i brought most of the traffic/posts to this place! it used to get 3,4 comments before i came.
Keep telling yourself that.
Boom Roast, I agree lakes haha go oru, win a game in ncaas and make ndsu/summit some money!!
You’re a small, small man, Sam. As far as this weekend, anything can happen….but i’m just thinking it would be nice to finally beat Western for once this year…..after that, who knows….get hot, get lucky, this team can play with anyone if it puts it all together for 40 minutes.
Great indivdual talent in the Summit. Possibly 4 NBA picks. Good quality mid-major league. Watched both Oral Roberts and SDSU tonight on Fox College Sports. Good teams!
Hopefully the Bison men shoot better than the women did today. It is almost impossible to win again when you can’t make your shots including layups.
That is one thing both teams have struggled with at time, although the women have had this problem consistently. Both teams need to recruit or develop more scorers for next season.
Since both teams ended up in the middle of the conference there probably won’t be any coaching changes.
I do think the women need to add some strength and play more physical.
