Keyonte George goes off for 23. He was 8-13 from the field 6-11 from the arc.
Adam Flagler with 19 and Jalen Bridges continues his impressive start with 19.
Bears shoot nearly 40 percent from the arc and 49 percent for the game.
Not a great ball handling game with 15 turnovers. They also allowed Norfolk to shoot 50 percent.
The Bears slowly pulled away but this was nowhere near a rout. They had some problems with the Spartans. It was only 42-34 at the half.
That's why you play these games. You may not look great but you win and can fix as you go.
One more gimme with Northern Colorado on Monday before they travel to Las Vegas.
