Northwestern tourney

[ISU_REV]

How many are planning to go to Chicago the day after Thanksgiving for the 2 day tourney? I am looking forward to the trip, weather permitting.

I may be there, but that's because I'll be home over Thanksgiving in Rockford.

That's Rockford, IL, not Rockford, IA.

Any info on location, times, etc.?

Isn't this taking place at a different site now?

That's the MBB Tourney. We're talking about the WBB one.

That wouldn't be that far from Rockford.

I'm planning on going. Question: will ISU play Northwestern as a championship game that is not scheduled?

I'm thinking they do not. If probably would say so according to the schedule.

I do not think so, I do not think that Northwestern wanted to play ISU - but I am guessing it was a chance for BF to spend some time with Billy and Lyndsey.

I think it might be the opposite. BF has said in the past he doesn't like playing former assistants. I'm guessing that would go double for playing against his son. ISU played Kelly (Kebe) Kennedy's Akron team in 2005, but that was an exception.

but I am guessing it was a chance for BF to spend some time with Billy and Lyndsey.

I think BF has said that is the case.

I just wondered, sometimes they don't put the consolation game or championship game on their schedules.

Now my wife does not want to go. I am still thinking of renting a car and going by myself. Does anyone know where the team or fans might be staying?

This could get me in some hot water, but it isn't like this will be the first or last time.:biggrin:

Not a very attractive pair of opponents - Penn and College of Charleston.

Not a very attractive pair of opponents - Penn and College of Charleston.

Actually from the outside looking in these could very intriguing match ups.

The current RPI has us at 240, while Penn is 238.

College of Charleston is DII, but undefeted.
