Our offensive rating goes up, but our defensive rating goes way down. 🤦‍♂️

Thank you!! I haven’t laughed that hard in such a long time.

115 in regulation is embarrassing

Does anyone know what the record is for the most points scored against the Zips. We might be approaching that number.

We’re on the receiving end of the Miami game (home) from last year.

They hit 100 already. They will go for 120. They are just red hot from the 3 line in the past 5 minutes. Murray State is just playing lights out from beyond the Arc.

Defense was optional today. To Murray State’s credit, they didn’t seem to miss either!

Groce may have a coronary if they give up 100.

I cannot remember the last time we hit a three and they are drilling open three pointers. We collapse in the paint leaving guys open for 3 pointers.

Chippy game.

Joe Dunn says he and David could take the Murray State announcers. 🤣

I feel the talks of this being Groce's best Akron team was premature. We've been able to run up the score on the bad teams we've faced, but haven't been able to beat the good teams on our schedule. Our best win is against #161 Iona. Hopefully Groce can use this as a teaching moment as this is the worst Akron half-court defense we've seen in maybe 5 years. I think we have the bodies and athletes to improve, but we need to play smarter defense and be more disciplined.

The Zips are just not helping themselves on defense. They need to move quicker to the ball on both defense and on rebounding. I do not think the refs have been one sided. We are 6 of 12 from the foul line.

Officiating seems awfully one-sided but only listening on AM640

Plenty of time left. Go Zips!!

Get within 2 and then get down by 10.

There have been more “And 1” fouls called in this game than the rest of this season combined.

Dave and Joe working today

Murray State has been called for about 6 offensive fouls on moving screens. It is helping us to stay in the game. This is not Eric's best game. Groce took him out early in the half.

I believe Scott got locked up with one of their freshmen as time expired. Both hit the ground. And both charged with a technical foul, but no shots taken.

What’s the story with the scuffle?

Need a fast start. Hopefully that scuffle at the end of the half lights a fire into our guys in a good way.

Halligan came in and spurred the Zips rally with some really good defense. He was fighting through the screens and would not let his man drive to the basket. Groce was switching him in for defense. With Barre and him on the floor at the same time you could see the difference in defense. I would like to see them get more playing time in the 2nd half.

What else is on TV?
