Here's my lazy analysis of this game. A quote from the GoYotes article. No need to re-invent the wheel, with all the fine folks in the Athletic department writing these up, right? OK. the whole "win over Florida" thing was nonchalantly mentioned as if it were not a big deal. That was a huge upset, right? I guess the rest of the resume speaks to a good mid-major group, but the upset stands out.
Northeastern was picked 6th out of 10 teams in the CAA, with just one player picked as preseason all-conference honorable mention, (Senior Guard, Shannon Todd). Overall, the Summit and Colonial are pretty close, competitively. James Madison was snubbed for an at-large bid after unexpectedly losing in the Conference Tournament. They proceeded to advance all the way to the WNIT semi-final. Sounds very similar to USD/SDSU runs in that tournament after at-large snubs.
So if we compare a 6th team between conferences, this game might be like playing Western Illinois or North Dakota. We should be favored, but it shouldn't be considered playing a patsy, either. I won't be disappointed with a close win, being the first game. A blowout would not surprise be much, though.

12 of Northeastern 30 points are off USD turnovers. Coyotes look a little our of sync.

32-30 at the half.
Yotes committed 10 turnovers leading to 12 Northeastern points. Need to clean it up.
Still haven't given NU any freethrow attempts, although there was a stretch at the end of Q2 where we were tagged with three consecutive fouls. Refs must not have liked our defense?
Controlling the boards 18-12
Shooting 50-25-67. Could be better from the arc. Arens, Lamb and Korngable a combined 1-for-6. Duffy 1-for-2.

12 of Northeastern 30 points are off USD turnovers. Coyotes look a little our of sync. Northeastern appears to be denying passing lanes, but the Yotes were largely looking to pass the ball around the perimeter, taking them out of sync. When Lamb or Duffy drove, there was a lane.

Got it. I gave up DirectTv 2 months ago. We had only 1 network stations. Oh well, I’ll just cling to my iPad. Lol
