No where else to put this: LCJ is now the conference leader with 22.8 points per game. However, according to the MAC he's only played 10 conference games. WTF?

Yeah. Annoying isn't it? Frankly, I was especially annoyed by Toledo and Ball State and their average coaches thus weekend. They could have done the Zips a favor but flopped at home. And Pinky also always does just enough to stay above mediocrity. And to bring it all together, PCCC travels to Ypsilanti on Tuesday.

I will put this info here since there won't be too many posts leading up to this game. Akron is the best FT shooting team in the MAC. In conference play Akron is 81.2%. I looked at the three losses and found this interesting stat: Toledo: average 75% hit 89% (10 point loss) Buffalo: average 68% hit 87% (3 point loss) Ravenna: average 71% hit 80% (1 point loss) in that game Akron was 12-14 and Ravenna was 12-15.

You were saying? Well BG did almost blow a 20 point lead which they had with 4 minutes left. Lesson: don't ever count on Whitford and Ball State to get the job done.

Riak is making some good defensive plays/stops. He redirected a few if their lay ups. On another note, what a lame crowd for an ESPNU game. Zips sucked the life out of that arena. CMU likely gets more fans to their women's games. And those announcers sounded like two guys watching the game at a bar. Jackie Windon is a treasure

And v. Tulane. Was there for them both. But, yes, his % is way down.

Oh. It's not me. I was a different person before the T Shirt Cannon incident.

I read his post to say that is Ball State wins over BG they will be #1 seed. That's not the case. Zips beat them and have a better record

Uh. Zips beat them and Cards have 4 losses.

Are we now the #1 seed?

He made two this year that really counted

That Jackson kid is pretty good

Toledo sucks.

Yes. Michael Regghi always says "Book it to the Akron Zips"

There's also a Pluto article in PD today.

Akron opens at -4.5. CMU has some shooters. As long as they don't have a "Toledo" type night, Zips should be fine. All the pressure is on them.

Good one!

One game at a time...

Hes coming back. I would take that to the bank.

"Spot on" like the T-Shirt cannon aimed at my face.

I watched the replay and Windon and Regghi praised Deng Riak for his defense at crucial time in second half. Also, watching Turner play guard reminded me of Nick Harney.

German, Flowers, LCJ, M Jackson, and??? First team MAC?
