I thought the same thing. Then, on the other end, he jumped (not straight up) into the offensive player who was shooting and there was no call. The MAC badly wanted Miami undefeated.

Zips jump from 56 to 52 in NET rankings. Akron 60 in KP. That other team is 53 and 90 disrespectively.

Another season ending with 6 injured players on the bench. Some good news is that our top recruit from last year whonwas injured in the state finals in Indiana and never saw the floor for us is back practicing and should be ready to play in 26-27. We also have one of the finalists for this year's Ms Ohio Basketball signed for next. Ryan and Bud are already working on who to target in the transfer portal. Eventually our luck has to change.

A loss on senior day to end the season.

Anyone going up to the match?

So you’re saying you want a rematch…😄

Too bad this is a picture of him taunting the Ohio U. fans after having a terrible night individually.

Personally, I like Young in the game at the start because then he can guard the opposing teams best PG. He's our best perimeter defender.

He should start all 5 seniors from here on out IMO.

Didn’t watch the game, but I’m surprised the MAC allowed an undefeated season. But perhaps that’s the result they wanted as has been speculated on here before. That free throw advantage is significant as the away team. Just saying.

We shot 60% from three. Ever since the Kent game Young has been lighting it up from the outside. If the Zips stay hot from the three point line we will be tough to beat. With the seniors starting, I wonder if Groce might be tempted to keep Scott in the starting lineup and sit Halligan who has sturggled on offense. With Young coming off the bench with instant offense, it might be a consideration.

Chilly? Groce was pissed. I sit behind the opposing bench and there coach was yelling to his players we are going to keep playing hard and pressing in the last minute of the game when down by a dozen. And then their star went down with a concussion.

I clearly need some caffeine.

That's shown in the stats. They have 7 guys that average double digit points. That demonstrates moving the ball and finding the good open shot. I think one of the keys is Evan shutting down Suter. Suter is no longer their biggest threat but he's the gu that gets it all going. Shutting him down would be a big advantage.

You are right. If they have that many good 5 point shooters we are in deep trouble. 😉

I am still a bit nervous about Miami TBH. Particularly when they have Atlason on the floor. Akron likes to trap frequently on defense, but Miami moves the ball around well and can field a lineup of 5 terrific 5 point shooters to make us pay. Personally, I feel we should trap less and play more man to man defense. They don't have any post player that commands a double team against our smaller front court. What's important is being able to run them off the 3 and limit them to contested 2s.

Main stream media probably hasn't watched a MAC game that Miami didn't play in.

I have. Miami BG Ohio Akron Akron beats Miami for the championship

The mainstream sports media still begs to differ. I will side with the professional oddsmakers.

$855K buyout I'm seeing someone post on Ball St. board. That might be the largest buyout in MAC basketball history. Perhaps a sign Ball State actually wants to start committing resources to compete.

Is there a promo code to purchase tournament tickets on the gozips website?

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say the Zips will be preparing for Buffalo’s press. Also remember how that game ended…a bit chilly between the coaches.
