All I Need Is A Second
Last year's game-winning bucket over North Dakota State with 0.9 on the clock was the first game-winning shot with under a second to play since Quinton Hooker beat the buzzer against Southern Utah on Jan. 26, 2017 in Cedar City. It was also the first at the Betty since Troy Huff's winner vs. Eastern Washington on Mar. 1, 2014. 

Do The Harlem Shake
Speaking of Huff, the win over the Bison was the first in Grand Forks since Huff and Co. defeated NDSU, 95-77, on Nov. 24, 2013 in front of a sellout crowd of 3,142. Since then, the Bison had won the last four at the Betty. 

Jacks Defense Too Much
UND had a tough time scoring the basketball against South Dakota State on Friday, connecting on a season-low .369 percent from the field. The Hawks also took a season-high 28 triples, knocking down seven of them.
