Good for the Ohio students for raining hellfire on them with whatever they could throw.

41-25 FTA advantage for Miami OH. If I'm not mistaken, that gives them a +125 FTA advantage in the MAC this year. +107 at home, +18 on the road.

The last team I remember seeing do something like this in a regular season rivalry game ended up losing to their rival by 20 pts in the MAC Final. This year, Miami OH and Akron are rivals. Get. To. Saturday.

Game 1: UMass vs Miami OH Game 2: BG vs Toledo Game 3: Buffalo vs Akron Game 4: Ohio vs Kent The MAC could not have drawn it up any better. The best QF round ever matchup wise. I think the upper deck could get opened up for this tournament.

They were stupid for playing Skaljac these last couple games.

Patent Suder BS. He's a foul merchant.

What in the world was that, Hadaway?

4 on Suder.

How the Hell do you miss that?

I had so much respect for Mark prior to this game. Also, Byers just tabletopped Pav and no call.

3 technical fouls on Miami OH. If this game stays close and Miami OH is called for a questionable foul, I expect Lil Bro to get their 4th. PROTECT THE DJ EQUIPMENT! Edit: 4th T on Atlason.

He's so bad.

Miami OH are a bunch of dirty punks.

Skaljac is seemingly in a decent amount of pain.

16-5 FTA advantage for Miami OH in that first half.

Suder just got T'd up. Are pigs flying?

UMass is the 8 seed. Akron will play a 7 man rotation (most likely) Buffalo squad. Incredible.

Dear NIU, A 39 pt butt whooping is the proper send off. Enjoy the Horizon League and don't let the door hit you on the way out. Sincerely, The MAC

Murray State gets bounced by UIC in their conference QF. 14 pt loss. Ouch.

Out of likes but this is exactly what's important.

Miami OH is in a no-win situation when it comes to pressure. Currently their only claim to fame is a 0 in the loss column and every single pundit is debating if THAT'S even enough given their schedule. They know Akron will likely be awaiting them in Cleveland and every metric under the sun has Akron beating them in a theoretical neutral court matchup (in fact, I believe Akron is pretty heavily favored in that - nearly 60/40). Steele's outburst in Kalamazoo was proof the pressure of needing to be perfect to get to The Dance is wearing on them.

If anybody needs a ticket tonight, let me know. I have 1 GA available. We have a church event so I'll be following along on my phone. And yes @zippy5 I know it's Faith night haha. The irony.

Any affordable Zips gear like this is advantageous for me at the card shop I work at on the weekends. Akron gear sparks more conversation than people think. I've been wearing my Freeman jersey nearly every weekend recently and my boss told me some kids were quietly talking and pointing at the front of the jersey asking, "Is he wearing a Freeman jersey?" It's a grassroots effort to promote the program/school haha.

Wrong thread.
