Let's send them packing with a 30+ point beat down!

I strongly disagree. If they lose to us by more than one possession in the MACC, I think they are on the road in the NIT. Money talks, and a P5 team will be put in ahead of them. I think there is a 1 in 3 chance Cryami doesn't even make the MACC.

Really enjoyed watching this game and how the Zips responded after Central Michigan took the lead. There is no quit in this team. We were the much more physical team and quicker to the ball. We controlled the glass. And Tavari scored 8 straight points after having a miserable night shooting the ball. Groce has really built a great team. Lets finish the regular season on a high note Friday.

Good riddance

So odds are very high that in their last season in the MAC, NIU is going to finish last in basketball and only didn't finish last in football due to the grace of UMass.

They won't end up in the NIT if they finish the regular season undefeated. The only hope for that is a loss to Ohio on Friday. Otherwise, at worst, they'll be in Dayton which, in fairness to college basketball, is where they belong no matter what.

Yes, lost one somewhere and no one figured it out until now!

This kind of reminds me of when enrollment was falling. Is that the time to expand? They built the Dialer, bought Quaker Square for all the dorms the U needed, and the Polsky building to name two. A few years later enrollment tanked and Quaker Square was no longer needed. Do we want to go back down that path? Again?

Wait isn’t this game 31?

Yes, agreed. It will be that much sweeter when we beat them and then they have to go on the road to play in the NIT. 😁😆

UMass is going to beat OU, meaning I believe it's down to Buffalo and UMass for the 7/8 seeds. 1 through 4 is set. 1. Miami OH 2. Akron 3. Kent 4. Toledo Here are the main scenarios for 5 through 8 CMU will be the 8 seed if they beat Balls and Buffalo loses to Toledo. That is their only path to Cleveland. Akron only plays UMass if Balls and Buffalo lose. Otherwise, we get either BG or Buffalo. BG is either the 5, 6, or the 7 seed depending on their result and a combination of others. I'm sure I'm leaving out some scenarios, but it's utter chaos to figure out haha. Long story short... Akron's possible opponents: UMass, Buffalo, BG Miami's possible opponents: UMass, Buffalo, CMU

More fun reading on Bobcat Attack tonight. I wonder if OU will send Hadaway to the post-game presser tonight.

With two of those losses being very understandable and expected.

The 2025-26 season comes to a close Friday night as Northern Illinois comes into the JAR for senior night for a 6:00 contest. Make sure to get there to honor this outstanding group of seniors who have given us so many great Zips memories. The Huskies are 9-19 going into its game against Brimfield tonight.

I want Miami to finish undefeated now. When there was still a chance for the Zips to get the first seed, I was hoping for two losses. Now that there is no chance I want them to finish undefeated so that MAC Championship will be that much sweeter.

Toledo just had the ball down 2 with 10 seconds left and Kowalchoke didn't call a timeout. Instead, their PG dribbled the air out of the ball and turned it over with .1 seconds left.

Miami escapes again

Miami OH just traveled up 2 with 20 seconds to go but the refs didn't call it. Unbelievable.

25-5 is akron's best start to a season ever.

Good win. That was strictly a survive & advance game.

Yes, ankle from Friday.

Feeling like a tough, well balanced team win. Evan was a menace. Hope we get Eric back asap

Cryami is having another tough night against Toledo at home, barely holding onto the lead with a few minutes to go...

I’m guessing anyone they announce is on scholarship.
