UAZippers Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Got scary there for a minute, but the Zips should be proud of how they finished this one out. Great response after briefly losing the lead. On to the next one! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkwgriswold Posted March 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Whew. On to Buffalo. Plowden has been my favorite non-Zip MAC player the last couple of years. He sure showed his talent tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981 grad Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Great to see Marshall playing well. He got some playing time the last few games and really played with some hustle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LZIp Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Crazy game...us dominating the first half, Plowden doing his best LBJ impression, then unsung hero hitting two huge 3s to help us seal the deal. On to the next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 Oh, and in case you forgot. BUGS was picked #1 in the preseason media poll. We own them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippyfan34 Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 So I believe Aziz was the only scholarship player on the bench not to get in. Did not see Dailey, Wynn or Currie who I assume either have or were exposed to COVID. Just glad we got to play with whoever we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyforPresident Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 It feels oh-so-right to finally be back in the MAC semi-finals. This tournament used to be the Akron invitational. Time to get back to that, but Buffalo is really going to be hell tomorrow. I think it was just awesome that Jermaine Marshall came off of the bench tonight almost out of nowhere and became random hero. I love it. I absolutely love it. It's March baybee! He had great energy. Keep it going. Lastly, is it even March without Steve French? I miss making the hour plus trek to Q arena, the gameday chaos and festivities, the nerves, the pregame, screaming/cheering until my voice is hoarse, all of it, and then making the long drive home listening to the French and Dunn postgame, typically after a thrilling victory. End of an era I suppose. Between cliché Reghi and his awful color commentator and the bad zips radio play by play guy, we just sat and watched the game at home without sound lol. I miss the pre-corona world 😫 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoyalZIP Posted March 12, 2021 Report Share Posted March 12, 2021 What a breath of fresh air the DEFENSE and ENERGY was!!!!!! Lord that win felt great! And I've been waiting for Marshall to throw down like that all year, he was superb on defense, the boards, and those 3s were a result of the collective energy and belief of the team. Still far too reliant on one guy, and not having Wynn hurt, but this performance says a lot about this coaching staff. Two weeks ago BG embarrassed us at the JAR, and revenge (albeit closer than it should've been) was served. As far as what we need to see tomorrow: Tribble's game is fine and works if he makes his MF foul shots. He's so good at attacking to draw contact, but can't finish or consistently hit FTs. Like Big Dog used to, he could make a big difference in a game at the foul line. Secondly, I'd like to see Clarke play a bit more aggressively, but that will come with time. Thirdly, Trimble saw the ball go through the net, 3/5 too!! He and the other 3 guys not handling the ball MUST work harder to get him looks. I'd like to see (quality looks of course) at least three more attempts for him in a game like this, we need perimeter shooters to step up NOW. On to the semis baby!!!!! GO ZIPS!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
