BTW - I would take Kangas and Benson on my team in a heartbeat. They'd both start and be major contributors on any team in the MVC. I really hope AT was taking notes on how to play with his build and length. Benson was no taller or no beefier than AT, and quite frankly he owned the post. Kangas was the exact kind of player that this year's BU team was missing. Both of those players have the size and skill to play at any level of college basketball IMO.

Also, overall I was very impressed with Oakland's team and wish we had some of their size.

Excellent post. Agree 100%

You can hear Paul Herzog say "And the final score is..." while the ball's in the air.

keep watching for the next video the Wyoming player doing a flip after the dunk....wow

My thoughts exactly! Maybe if both teams had the same lineups as last night, Oakland would win seven or eight. Full strength, I think not!

I think I read that Oakland lost their best player to a broken foot at the beginning of the year also. He has not played at all this year, just like AW.

Oakland lost senior Derick Nelson for the season with a broken foot. He is a 6'5" guard who was last year's leading scorer and is their top defender. He will return next year for his final season.

Oakland is a good team. If they had their best player, they would have been a tournament team, no doubt. (for the record, I think that about us, too) They would have been a strong team in the Valley.

What a game. I am still in disbelief... so glad I was there!
