This team really showed us something today. I think many of us were worried. We were on the road, against a team we have struggled with and we were without our 2nd leading scorer. This would have been an easy one to chalk up as a loss. Down the stretch, this team made play after play on both sides of the ball. This kind of effort will travel very well to the Field House (I still want to say the "Q").

I had the same thought. I keep thinking there is something I am missing.

By my count, Akron is 5-3 against the East and BG is also 5-3. It must come down to C above.

Per the MAC's website: TIE-BREAKER PROCEDURE Ties in winning percentage, and thus for tournament, seeding positions shall be broken as follows: 1. Between TWO teams: A. Head-to-head competition B. Division Record (10 games)^ C. Winning percentage* vs. ranked conference teams (top to bottom, regardless of division, vs. common opponents regardless of the number of times played) D. Coin flip 2. For MULTIPLE (3 or more) team ties: E. Total won-lost record/winning percentage* of games played among the tied teams F. Two (2)-team tie-breaker procedure goes into effect (refer to A) [NOTE: Once a three-team tie has been reduced to two teams, the two-team tiebreaker will go into effect.] ^ - For the purpose of determining the Division champion. This tiebreaker is ONLY used for seeding purposes if the two teams in question are tied for the Division lead. (Teams will still be considered co-divisional champions) * - Winning percentage is used instead of record because of situations where teams do not play each other the same number of times. Therefore, a team that is 1-0 (1.000) would win the tiebreaker over a team that is 1-1 (.500).

And BG goes down in flames, 73-55. Announcers indicated that Akron moves to the 1 seed.

Now 69-55 with 2:01 left.

Have not tried that one. Will have to add it to my list. ?

That Turbo Shandy is a tasty beverage.

Zips clinch a bye.

Groce should be coach of the year.

What a gutty performance. Maybe this is the game we needed to set the tone for the next few weeks.

LCJ is the man!

Kittens win 76-69.

An intentional foul on Whittington as he fouls out of the game.

Kittens up 69-65 with just under a minute to go.

Flagrant 2 on Pippen on a free throw box out - with a severe elbow.

Preston looks like the real deal.

Tied at 54, 5:52 left

Kittens by 4 at the half, 36-32.

He picked up his 5th foul then decided to bump chests with the one of the officials. His was given a technical and sent to the locker room.

This game has been UGLY. No other way to describe it. Poor shooting, spotty D, and a lack of composure.

We can't even make free throws tonight.

Still 8+ minutes left....

BG has 10 3s to our 1. That's your difference - and then some.

There is no flow to this game.
