[NU Sports] Re: first win in conf

[Beamsley, Jeff]

We knew from the beginning of the season that we were only go as far as
Shurna and Thompson could carry us.  Shurna's injury certainly cost us
at least one conference win.  

We aren't going to win the BT, but I don't think anyone thought we
would. 

The win last night and hopefully a win against Iowa later this week will
prove that we are currently more of a middle of the pack team in the BT
right now.  

For this team to make the dance, Shurna has to get healthy, Juice has to
stay healthy, and we have to find 9 more wins out of the remaining 14
conference games.  That's going to take some work since we play Minn and
Wisky twice, OSU and Ill at home, and MSU on the road.

Just like we shouldn't get too depressed over the Cats' previous three 
defeats. After all, they were games against three  teams with zero Big 
Ten losses combined.

(And if anyone dares quibble that MSU now has a Big Ten loss...well, NU 
now has a Big Ten win. As though any of that changes the point.)
