Start driving right at Plowden. He has four fouls now

Great they tie the game and LCJ twists his ankle

Plowden is playing a heck of a game

Man if either of these teams plays this way against Buffalo they will get crushed. As poorly as BGSU is playing right now The Zips should be stomping them.

And diving on the ground for a loose ball. You got to love this kid

And he has had a strong start on defense but he's adding some offense as well.

Yeah usually they punch players on the other team.

Here's hoping the Redhawks get a repeat on last years miracle.

Congrats to Torrey Patton (23 points 10 rebounds) and the Vikings for winning the Horizon League tournament. The Vikings have never lost an opening game in the NCAA tournament. I remember them upsetting Bobby Knight and Indiana in 1986 (and making the sweet sixteen) and knocking off Wake Forest in 2009.

I do like to give credit to others posters when they come up with something funny. The Ziggy Zoombas were lamenting the absence of any tournament success (have never won it since the tournament was implemented in 1980 and haven't been to the NCAA tournament since 1968). Anyway they listed the number of times each of the other MAC schools have won the tournament and then stated even frickin' COVID-19 has claimed more tournaments than BG. 🤣 Here is to that streak continuing tomorrow. 🥂

The only team in the top six that had only one selection in the first through third teams. Where would we be without LCJ?

For all of you that were convinced that this would all disappear after Nov 4th - just one question - did it? And "youngster" Zip-Grad'13 was pretty spot on here.

Did not understand what the call was on the late disallowed Bowling Green goal

Unfortunately dumb move on Hernandez part

Fantastic fake out on the goalie on that one

Just to see this makes me kind of happy - like the MAC believes the tournament will be played. Don't much care who wins between Kent/Buffalo but happy one of them will be in the opposite bracket with Ohio and Toledo. Of course if the game isn't played that really upsets the bracket. Of course BG could certainly pull off the upset and make everything else irrelevant but even with poor play recently I still like the Zips chances. Let the Ohio Invitational tournament begin. 🙂 If there in any justice/karma from last year the Zips win this thing!

Huh, the Horizon League re-seeds after every round. That's one way of protecting your top seed. BTW, Keith and the Dukes won their first round match-up in the A-10.

Hate to kick a program (sort of) when they've been down for 50 years but since the Falcons are likely to be our first round opponent, this made me laugh. On a discussion of BGSU's woes on a thread called If Not Now, When? the OP starts with the below. I know he meant Prohibitive (must be that BG education) but is there any more apt description of BGSU basketball?

Completely forgivable - Chad seems like a guy who loves Akron sports - it was just funny 😀

Wright State was up 72-48 with 6 and half minutes left and Milwaukee hit a three with one second left and then won it in overtime. Holy crap. Play til the whistle.

If the last set of games get played the Zips can finish as only the third fourth or fifth seed. If the Zips win it looks like they are locked into the third seed with the winner/loser of Buffalo/Kent taking #2 and #4. At this point I don't care who we face - just get on with it 🙃

Stephen Colbert mentioned Matt Cherry's book on his show last night.

Hate to root for Kent but I'd much rather the Zips be on the same side of the bracket with them with Buffalo and Toledo on the other side. And if OU really is out and WMU replaces them the 3 seed is kind of important. I still believe in this team I think a lot of these issues at the end has been due to all the road games. We finish at the JAR with Miami. Miami is no slouch this year but I believe the three seed is there for the taking.

I think the broadcast had a little trouble. If you look up in the corner right after the goal you see them change the score to a Marshall win. 🤣
