Northern COL finished as the #2 seed while Idaho St beat Northern Arizona 68-60. Despite a win which they led by DD basically the last 10 minutes they still only played 7 players 10 minutes+ with 4 starters seeing 35+ minutes and Arlington playing 40 minutes. I

The scheduling also favors a fast-tempo team as the winner of this game and the game with #1 seed, EW, do not play until Tuesday. While the superior seed I do not expect the Bears to take this for granted as they needed 2OT to win at home and won by 2 in their last meeting at Idaho St. Bengals one of the slowest paced teams, #339. We are backing Northern COL to get the win and ATS cover tonight!
