Came home and watched some of the Toledo/NIU game. Very similar. NIU without 3 of their top scorers for both games. Akron defense had to stop Coit. Give him some 2s but stop the 3s. Ali did a good job on him 2nd half. NIU had a freaky couple games going on adrenaline. Groce kept his guys fresh and that bit of an edge paid off.

Some can say the "MAC Blows," but the MAC has been a stable Mid Major Conference for a long time. A few schools have come and gone, but the vast majority stayed put. Having the basketball tournament in Cleveland is a huge bonus for Akron and Kent State. You want Akron to leave the MAC, then don't plan on attending the early tournament games. With the addition of another team, this will set up a strong mid major situation of schools on equal-footing, especially important now that the likes of OSU. MI, TN, etc can directly pay athletes to come on board. Well done.

@clarkwgriswold always gets his for free at the Verizon store in Macedonia.

FYI. "Draftmatic" youtube channel has replay.

POY: Freeman COY: depends on these last few games. If CMU loses them all, Groce moves back into that spot. Simon at BG has improved the team but not rock star this year. First Team: Freeman, Marcus Hill, Maddox, Agee, Hunter?

Made clutch FTs. He needs conditioning.

Tavari has that "thousand yard" stare. never sure what is going on with him.

more double standards.

OMG. Love it.

Please explain. What's "take plays off?" not getting back on defense?

It's a puzzle, and all we can do is watch and hope some of these 3 balls eventually make it through the net in Cleveland.

Woof. It's like Dawson is deliberately missing these 3s. No way they make it to Saturday in Cleveland.

And who wants it more. 😏

Zips haven't won in Toledo since...long time ago. Rockets to cover.

Noah 2.0

But Zips didn't get the help they needed elsewhere in the MAC

I think they were 5-0 when they came to Akron

shades of 2016-17

This would be one of if not THE worst Zips loss, factoring in the current team's record. Pathetic.

My concern level is -10% if that is mathematically possible.

My concern level is 0.00%

Tim O'Shea?

I was one of the few people who watched the Buffalo @ NIU game last evening. Buffalo lost by 4 and was 9 of 22 from the FT line. Also near the end of the game, an NIU player's shoe slipped off and a Buffalo player threw it into the stands resulting in a technical foul. Good times.

And all he needed was one FT to win the game after the horrible foul call on Cochran. And he missed them both.

If the Zips get Refs like the Toledo game, Freeman will be fouling out with 4 minutes left. The refs gave up at the end.
