This is pretty cool.

Credit where credit is due. The Dukes beat VCU for the first time EVER tonight, 80-77 in OT.

I wonder what Groce and this team are thinking, after beating Buffalo without Cheese and Ohio without LCJ for nearly half the game. Incredible efforts in back to back games, and I really, REALLY hope we take it to Can't and knock the teeth out of their stupid bird. By the way, I think Groce likes coaching here. Who knows if he'll stay long term, how long he'll stay, etc., but I think the mid-major stage is where he thrives. Overall just a great guy and a phenomenal coach. What a job he has done in under 3 seasons at the helm. Akron Basketball is BACK! Go Zips!

Groce mentioned last night how he got a supersoaker to make sure he was ready for these occasions. LOL. Dunn mentioned on the post-game that the kids on the team seemed to enjoy Groce cutting down the nets more than anyone. I think that says something.

This is a TEAM. Very fun to see them have fun. They've earned it. They've been really fun to watch all season and are an easy group to root for.

OU goes from a 50 point half to a 15 point half.

I can't bring myself to say I respect Can't, but damnit I wish our marketing department would follow suit on this. Build that rivalry. Make it something even more special in the region, and broadcast it. Cincy/Columbus soccer has the Hell is Real rivalry and that caught on quickly. Build this rivalry up like that.

OU is pretty beat up. It was like Hacksaw Ridge on their bench last night.

Another reason to hate them (although honestly I give them a tiny bit of credit for this one), on their official football schedule for next year we are listed as TSDTR (That School Down The Road ?)

Better than Sophie's choice. ? And losing to Kent is never worth any perceived reward. I want total annihilation of PCCC so that they decide not to even bother with Cleveland. I want Mr. Pinky to be a brilliant shade of bright red all game. I want to hit them so hard that their future children will reconsider playing.

You can find most of the details here. None of the spots have officially been decided yet

Using the above picture... 1 vs. 8/9 winner 2 vs. 7/10 winner 3 vs. 6/11 winner 4 vs. 5/12 winner

Please do 100 free throws every day ?

If Tribble develops his jumpshot in the off season, he will be a star. The kid can jump out of the gym.

As Lanny Frattare would say. There was noooo doubt about it. Great night to be a Zips fan.

What a win, and what a TEAM!!! They love playing with and for each other, and they love playing for their coaches. A recipe for success. BEAT KENT!!!!!

...Kent State still sucks! KSUcks, Senior Night, AND... Romeo Travis Jersey Ceremony!!! ???

He is really coming into his own these last few games. He seems much more confident on both sides of the ball.

Just how fantastic was that Tribble dunk?

ZN watching you be predict the future...

Wow, one of the most exciting JAR games in a long while. Fantastic defense by the Zips in the second half. First half D was sketchy, but they cranked it up in the second half. OU scored 50 in the first half and 17 in the second. OU went after LCJ tonight. I think we'll see a lot of that from here on in. Great halftime adjustments by Groce and staff.

OU had 61 with 14:19 minutes left. They scored 6 points those last 14 minutes.

How did we win that? How did we hold them to 17 second half pts? How did we clinch the 1 seed? Ohio sucks. What a night. To BobcatAttack I go. Hehe.

Unsure how we pulled this one out, but I will take it. GO ZIPS!!

Zero. The number of calls we've gotten this game.

How about we have LCJ stand out and shoot three pointers and have Xeyrious Williams drive to the basket?

I just have this feeling though the zips are going to come back in this one

is McDonald's interested in sponsoring our conference rebrand?

Man has the video quality on phones improved dramatically in the last decade.

One of my favorite Zips games I've been too. National TV game iirc

This is going to be a wild ride in the MAC Tournament. I can make an argument for any of the top 9 going on a run and winning it. Certainly, some arguments are stronger than others, but it is wide open.
