Let'sGoZips94

Chalk held, except for Akron. Time to be the bull in a china shop, and bust this tournament open.

Akron and Duquesne both play on Thursday. Duquesne plays at 6pm, and Akron plays around 9pm. Which game will some of this thread's participants attend...? Do they make the drive to support KD or do they head to Cleveland to support Akron? Quite the dilemma... Sorry, I had to have some fun with this one. Go Zips.

For those of us that didn't give up and watched the game live, we thank you for this recap. FIFY I didn't think that deep, but I was afraid he got hurt. More importantly, the whistle wasn't very obvious right away, so it took me a quick second to realize they actually called the foul. Calling obvious fouls is their job. It's the ticky-tack, inconsistent crap throughout a game that people take issue with. It cannot be stated enough how great of a job Groce has done coaching this year. It helps make the future look really, really bright. Also, the MAC is taking notice, evident by Can't State's and OU's message boards.

I thought about making it a more sarcastic post, with a bold prediction being the team that has the most points at the end of the game will win. I figured I'd spare y'all the sarcasm, put some real keys in there, and leave the common sense to you or Clark (you beat him to it).

Keys to this game... - Make our shots - Don't let The Q be intimidating to our young guys - Play high-energy, aggressive defense - Ball movement, both on and off the ball, on offense - Get into Thompson's head; this is where KLac can really shine

Shhhhh... Don't give WMU any ideas. They might fire Hawkins and hire your dog.

It's almost an immediate reaction for me to go from here to BobcatAttack when something good happens to us and something bad happens to them. They all have their hands on their heads wondering what the heck they're going to do with SP tanking their program and Groce just getting start at Akron. One of their posts says, "#HeCanRecruit." Can we also say, "#HeCanCoach"? He's done an amazing job these last few weeks with this team, and completely out-coached Hawkins tonight.

9pm.

Does Cedar Point name their next coaster after this game or our season in general?

We had no business winning that. Then we had no business losing it. Then we had no business winning that again. Incredible.

BALL GAME!!!!!!!!!!!! TO THE Q WE GO!

Any doubt that Cotton will be back next year has gone out the window with this game.

In multiple ways, yep.

Patton is fantastic at going up quickly under the basket. We have a 9 pt lead.

This is unbelievable.

3 fouls on Wilder.

1 point game!

Incredible half.

UTOMI!!!!

Cotton!

11-0 run!

I think Groce called prison rules during the last timeout. We are either going to win, or lose with a bunch of fouls now.

Millions aren't watching this. Millions didn't fill out a bracket with this game on it. Nothing is worse than that game.
