  1. http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/2017/2/7/14544386/akron-isaiah-johnson-heaviest-buzzer-beater-ball-state This probably fits best in the theme of this thread
  2. It's on espn3 replay if you can access that. Personally I couldn't watch Big Dogs free throws. I sat with head in one of those purple towels they gave away watching the sweet old lady in the next section to see her reaction and hear from the crowd.
  3. I was there. I saw the ball go through the net. Didnt I?
  4. Meanwhile in Bowling Green, Kent State still...Well, you know. CMU and Buffalo are the danger teams in Cleveland.
  5. I've watched it about 5x now. TDM pushes Michael Hughes out of the way and sprints across the floor to Big Dog. Exciting stuff.
  6. I'm sure it's Basketball 101, but good job, Noah, letting that ball fly out of bounds.
  7. WTF is going on
  8. OM freaking God!
  9. The night the lights went out..
  10. I say we got trouble.
  11. Why does every team get hot from 3 against us? 8 point lead to 5 point. 7 point to 4 point. 6 point to 3.
  12. So crowd is on feet. Big run. Ball state time out...And next we have. "your friends at 22 Exchange..."
  13. Thank god for TDM!
  14. Here we go again.
  15. A question should have been...Who if anyone will make the first 3 pointer? Definitely not Josh.
  16. Isn't there some connection to the Peters family at Ball State?
  17. Word. Watched.the Kansas/Baylor game and thought Kansas could never lose at home. Their fans holding up signs to that effect and then boom! It's gone! Start over. We are really spoiled at the JAR, and I'm not still not sure what makes that place so special.
  18. It was definitely when and not IF the guys would drop an away game. Not rationalizing but better a Noon game on the day before the super bowl than much later in season at Ravenna or Canada. As for the trolls, what's your win streak at the majestic hallowed Convo? Akron has a lot of rivals at this point. But OU has dropped down to 3 or 4 on that list.
  19. The refs are so inconsistent. Kent and EMU had 54 fouls and 4 technicals. The Central/Western game had a chippy incident and words exchanged but nothing was called. Ive watched other games this year when the refs just step in and calm things down and avoid the techs. CMU coach was thrown out once or twice. Then I wanted Baylor v Kansas and the refs just let them play. I doubt the MAC players are just so much hot-tempered and foul prone than other conferences.
  20. Big bummer to lose. No rationalizing here. Let's just not make a habit of it!! That's the thing about win streaks (obviously) they eventually come to an end with a thud. Winning the close games gives the team confidence in tough situations, but it also has to wear on these guys mentally and emotionally. A nice blow out of Ball State on Tuesday should do the trick to get them back on track. Go Zips!
  21. My bad. Waiting for someone else to start it. This subject seems to have run its course.
  22. They want Groce back. They want DJ back. Newsflash...They aren't coming back. Move on.
  23. The Classless Kittens already started two "Kron" threads for this Saturday and in the first one they immediately began with rude and offensive comments about Big Dog. I dislike the Kent team the most but the Kitten fan base is basically a bunch of Neanderthals.
  24. Will be fascinating to watch how the MAC seeding falls out if the lower 11 keep feeding on each other. Buffalo needs to ramp up its inconsistency again.
  25. http://www.thesuburbanite.com/sports/20170131/senior-center-uses-court-vision-to-power-akron-basketball-team Well-written article on Big Dog. Some decent journalism and use of the word "fulcrum!"
