Drake is shooting 56% overall and 70% from 3-pt (7-10)
And yet they are down by 10 to NDSU

update- at half Drake trails by 14, 55-41
Points off turnovers NDSU 15 - Drake 0

Drake is getting killed by NDSU's Trevian Carsen, a Des Moines kid who went to Des Moines Area Community College, he has 21 pts on 8-9 and 5-6 from 3-pt.
He was a juco All American right in Drake's back yard, but still got little DI interest. I wonder how bad he would have wanted to play for Drake, but never offered.

North Dakota State leads Drake 55-41 at halftime. 2nd half just starting-

Evansville trailing Notre Dame at halftime 42-29-
 
Watched most of the Evansville first half - they just turn the ball over too much and can't knock down enough shots. Turnbull being in foul trouble has only made it tougher.
 
Hoping Murray State or Illinois State can pick off a win against a tough team - otherwise, this is shaping up to be a rough day for the Valley.
 
NDSU has 72 points at Drake with 15 minutes left

update-
NDSU slowed the ball down & Drake got back to within 5 but final score
NDSU 99 - Drake 94

Yes, so far the MVC is 0-2.
Drake loses to North Dakota State 99-94- https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/boxscore/_/gameId/401828910
Both teams shot extremely well. NDSU was picked 4th in the Summit League preseason poll. They were 8-3 (now 9-3), NET of 136.

And Notre Dame beats Evansville 82-58 - https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/boxscore/_/gameId/401817439

Other MVC games- https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/scoreboard/_/seasontype/2/group/18
 
Drake made a good comeback - were down 18 and got it down to six multiple times down the stretch. Just couldn't make a key shot - they really could have pulled it all the way back. Quinn is a monster - not a good matchup for the roster construction the Braves have when we see the Bulldogs later.
 
Murray State beats Akron in the Jack Jones Classic in Las Vegas. Akron's NET was 41-
Final score- Murray State 115 Akron 100 - https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/boxscore/_/gameId/401820602

UIC lead at Belmont for most of the game, but Belmont took the lead for good in the final 2½ to win 87-84-

Valparaiso stayed close, but lost to UNC-Wilmington 73-70-

3 other games in progress- https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/scoreboard/_/date/20251213/group/18
 
Final: Utah State 83 Illinois State 78

MVC is 1-4 so far in non-conference games.
Belmont starts the MVC schedule 1-0 with a win over UIC-

UNI and SIU leading in the final two MVC games-
 
SIU outrebounds Richmond 48 to 29 but turnovers and FT differential costs then the game 93-84 in OT
Richmond got 26 pts off turnovers
SIU does not shoot the 3-pointers well, 28% on the year

UNI beats Oakland by 12
