Boy, that's a salty stretch right before the tourney. Oof. At least there isn't much travel involved but man, 4 games in 7 days against some top opponents is not going to help us in boise.

Well, msubobcats.com does not even have the right time frame! It is not 7 days. It is 4 games in 6 days because from 3 PM on Sunday to 4 PM next Saturday is only 6 24-hour periods!! While I understand why they said 7, from a physical and rest standpoint, the Cats are playing a game every other day over a 6 day period. Absolutely Brutal. Even though 3 games are at home, I am more melancholy about their ability to go 4-0 or 3-1 during that stretch. Playing 3 of the top 4 teams in the Big Sky (not including the Cats position) in that stretch will push the limits of any team. Guess a min-tournament before the tournament. I agree with GoldstoneCat - Not sure how that is going to help us to turn around and play 3 games in a row the following week. But it is what it is!

Tough stretch, but they should be rested and ready to go in Boise since they won't be playing until Thursday there. I'm glad that all the top teams will (hopefully) be able to play 20 games so that the regular season conference winner this year does it legitimately against a full schedule.

Right and i guess you'd have the option to rest guys on Saturday depending on the standings, so maybe not that huge of a deal. Win the first 2 and maybe it becomes moot if we get a little help someplace.

The first round bye is the most critical element. I would hate to see that slip away somehow. The top seeds are all pretty even imo, so it will be who gets hot.
I happen to think Danny will have these guys ready to compete and win a bunch of games down the stretch. Definitely need one tomorrow.
