Zips -8.5

If we are comparing January 22 to January 23, I would say this year is the better team. There really aren't any big problems as I see it right now other than shot making as a team. We don't have problems of the Ali Ali back to basket for 28 seconds or Trimble chucking up bricks. With the team now, anyone can contribute on any given night and anyone can also struggle. I wouldn't compare Sammy to Trimble just because it seems like Groce plays Sammy on a shorter leash. The team seems to be more cohesive now than a year ago at this time. Once Trimble left then the team became more of a group, it doesn't seem like that will need to happen this year.

Don’t forget this CMU also went to Ann Arbor and beat Michigan in December

And called so late

Just put Enrique back in to get one more rebound for the double double

Akron -13.5 is looking good right now

This game could be the litmus test in terms of attendance for the rest of the year. There has been a good amount of publicity surrounding this game, hopefully people are noticing and we get a good crowd tonight!

I can't believe how much Aziz has progressed this year already. 4th in the nation in blocks too. And he is shooting 62% from the field, higher than Enrique right now. What a game changer he would be as a Zip right now

Sammy needs to start over Tavari

“There’s no easy road games”

Hank is the third scorer. If he can drive to the basket more it would help him a lot. Also not missing layups would be helpful too

It looks like X is an active participant in practice. Good sign

Good game to have the under

Xavier not warming up

I think Rahama has only passed the ball twice this half

The first couple of games the teams had no idea about him. Nate can be a 4th option on the floor if he steps up a little

The loss of Mikal Dawson makes this really apparent. Maybe more so than losing Ali

Not the worst non-D1 opponent crowd

Okay everyone needs to relax on the doomsday takes 😆

Lucky this is only a 5 point game

Alright lets make some layups here

Win 100 for Groce in the Blue and Gold!

Xavier is back

This team is just way better with Enrique on the floor, whether he is scoring or not

X needed that
