[NU Sports] Wildcats 70, Stanford 62

[wildelk2 at aol.com]

  A stat was presented during the game today; all 4 of our losses to Stanford ( which occured in the last 4 years) were by 6 points or less.  Fast forward to today; we got a little tentative and let a 10 point lead get whittled to 1; then won the game.  
   This was a big win, no question about it.  We got Stanford in foul trouble, and did enough to take advantage of the situation.  Free throw shooting was lousy in the 1st half; OK in the 2nd. 
  Stanford had Kentucky and Oklahoma St. on the ropes, but missed free throws.  We made them in the 2nd half; Shurna was awesome; especially in the 1st half.  
   I'm looking forward to next week; Illinois and Michigan St.  If we go 3-5 our first 8 "in conference games", and beat the 2 road kill teams mixed in, I think we'll make hay the second half of conference play and make the tournement.  Great game to watch!    GO   CATS!!    Eric
