The League Slate is our preview series that looks at the conference games of the night. It is posted on the morning of league games (usually Thursdays and Saturdays). Games are listed in order of start time.
Tonight's league games could be ugly. A week after we saw games between several evenly-matched teams, tonight's action may feature a blowout or two ... or three.
North Dakota State (6-3) at IPFW (3-7)
7:00 p.m. ET | | |
|
| Key Storyline: North Dakota State has hit its first rough patch of the season, losing two-straight in games at North Dakota and home against South Dakota State. How will this young team rebound on the road in the face of a bit of adversity? |
South Dakota State (8-1) at Oakland (5-5)
8:00 p.m. ET | | |
|
| Key Storyline: South Dakota State has had a season of many "firsts" in 2011-12. Will the team extend that trend even further in picking up its first victory inside of Oakland's O'rena? |
South Dakota (2-8) at Oral Roberts (10-0)
8:05 p.m. ET | | |
|
| Key Storyline: Oral Roberts has been engaged in a few shoot-outs at the Mabee Center in recent weeks, but this game offers a chance to showcase it can still lockdown defensively like in non-conference play. USD owns the league's worst per-possession offense. |
UMKC (3-7) at Southern Utah (5-5)
9:00 p.m. ET | | |
|
| Key Storyline: The Kangaroos swept their homestand last weekend, which is a task that was aided greatly by the return of forward Trinity Hall. Now Hall and company will head to play a solid Southern Utah team that has had trouble winning on its home court. This homestand could make or break SUU's season. |
