Line down to -8.5. Must be money coming in on BG

The Zips are 4 point favorites tomorrow. Seems a little low to me

Good article detailing the situation at Buffalo http://buckyandsully.buffalonews.com/2015/04/10/hurley-had-change-in-heart-after-ub-mishandled-situation/

@GeorgeThomasABJ: Murmurings about Rhodes Arena that @ZipsMBB center Pat Forsythe could play against the NIU Huskies tonight.

Zips open -4 now down to -2.5. I'm calling it Zips 60-53

Former Zips commit and current Villanova guard Dylan Ennis was named the MVP of he Legends Classic as he led his team to wins vs. VCU and Michigan.

It looks like Elijah Pittman(6-9, 220lb leading scorer, 21.4ppg) was indefinitely suspended about a month ago. They don't have much effective size otherwise. Their tallest guys who gets significant minutes are 6-7 and 6-9, although 6-9 guy only averages about 16 minutes per game. Zips should have a decided height advantage at all positions but PG, but that could change with Quincy running point. i would think this is a game that Tree should dominate

That real time rpi #36 is that websites own power ranking. Real time rpi lists the zips actual rpi at 46.

It looks like Gallego is probably gone. Portland just traded for his homegrown rights. Maybe Caleb will tell him that he's better off staying at Akron for a year.

Obviously Dambrot is 2-4 in championship games but the first one of those was a loss at the buzzer on a fluke shot to Miami. If not for that he's 3-3

The NCAA games in Columbus are at Nationwide Arena, which is not the home of the Buckeyes. Ohio State can not play there because they are the host school. If there were another Div I school in Columbus, they could host and Ohio State would be eligible to play there. Not sure of the host in Pittsburgh this year, but in the past, Duquesne has hosted and Pitt could play in Pittsburgh.

They came in as partial qualifiers so they had to sit out games and practice last year, as well as pay their own way for school. They are technically sophomores but like Jimmy Conyers, they can gain an extra year of eligibility back if they have progressed 80% towards their degree. If they keep their noses clean and in the books, we should have them for 3 more years

I don't think the technical was for hanging on the rim as much as it was slapping the backboard.

If it would have been a little closer? The Zips were down 3 points with 1:16 left in the game.

Do you realize that Nik is shooting 47%(8-17) from 3 in his last 11 games. His 39% on the year would be good enough for 11th in MAC if he had enough attempts.

Reggie Keely is a decent enough big man. They do have a potentially tremendous backcourt though. Cooper, Kellogg, added Walter Offutt from Ohio State and Stevie Taylor from Gahanna. They'll be deadly from 3 and have a couple of slashers as wel..

This is what his linkedIn page says about itCurrent Volunteer Assistant Basketball Coach at The University of Akronhttp://www.linkedin.com/pub/nick-dials/20/858/b17

Penalty Kick!!!!!!! Good!!!!! 2-1 Zips!!!!!!!!!!!! Frenchie describes it as a scrum between the two teams after the goal. We are not making friends among the Big Ten soccer teams

This is a link to game highlights on mlsnet. The reaction of Warzycha after the red card is bizarre. He just kind of walks away in a daze even as Akron players are shoving him. I will give OSU's coach the benefit of the doubt because he hadn't seen video of the incident but he says they were unlucky in getting the red card because it could have easily been yellow. OSU's lucky I didn't jump out of stands and throttle Warzycha http://www.mlssoccer.com/videos?catid=112&id=9183

1-0 Zips!!! Sarkodie with a deflected shot from outside the 18
