Alarie played only 11 minutes with 7pts/2rb/2blocks and left the game with Tigers up by 4pts. Littlefield played 25 minutes before re-aggravating lower leg injury middle of 3rd qtr with 18pts/5rb/3assists with a 15pt lead. Without the two of them, remaining Tigers increased/held the lead. Why? - Combination of talent/depth and good coaching or perhaps some luck as FGU was ranked as #5 in mid-major prior to the game wit Tigers as #9.
Does Coach Berube rest both of them for the next two games which would probably mean 1 win and 1 loss? Concern is that these injuries appear to be easy to re-aggravate.
With both of them, the Tigers have an opportunity to win the Iowa game and get some recognition in the National Polls.
