Family and friends packed in the same row passing the popcorn down like it belong to everybody and the L been up since the parking lot.
Up 56 To 35 At The Half And Bidunga Came Out Ready
No. 11 Cards came out cooking. Missed the first shot, then knocked down 10 of the next 11 and it was already 23 to 11 wit 13 minutes still left in the half. Lead got all the way up to 25 before the break and the board say 56 to 35 at the half.
Flory Bidunga had a debut yall. First game in red after coming over from Kansas and he put up 16 points, 9 rebounds and 3 steals like he been here for years. Wooley, Trimble and Shelstad was all in double figures too.
Second Half Went Cold From Three And Chattanooga Crept Back To 15
Cards was up 75 to 56 wit 5:18 left when this video got took and the building was LOUD. The jumbotron kept replaying one Chattanooga player hitting the floor too, let the man get up.
After that the shots stopped falling. 1 for 16 from three in the second half, aht aht and not one basket in the last 4:13. Chattanooga went on a 15 to 6 run and got it down to 15 wit 3:47 left and if yall was in them seats you know the feeling. Karter Knox grabbed 11 rebounds and then limped off in the last minute after a hard fall. Praying he good.
Final was 84 to 70, Cards. First W of the season and they got it at home, the fourth season opener in a row they done won and the third one under Pat Kelsey.
Been waiting months for Cards basketball to come back and they did not waste no time getting it. Somebody wake these kids up tho. Toodles.
