FIXED ...But honestly who cares. One thing you do notice however is that their fans are actually active on facebook and defend their school a bit. Akron gets trashed all around facebook and only a handful of people even step up to the plate to say anything.umm does anyone care that they're fans make a facebook group about us?no...we have lives and don't sit around and "trash" other teams on facebook.there is a big difference between trash talking and team/school pride....apparently you haven't figured that one out yethaha school pride?you can find me at any home basketball/football game.and a few affordable away ones too.dont question my fanhood just sayin, i really dont consider it showing us up or anything if its on facebook...to the Can't state students-get a life, and have fun making fun of us on facebook, real men you are

Can't is going to get big? Not good news.

Are you serious?we lost by 3 pretty much...How about based on our play against Can't, the team you're talking about....we have a chance because we were up 10 at half and lost by 2...Debbie Downer damn.

So it's just random as to where we play at?I was just wondering if it was some kind of rotation every other year or something, but I guess not.

So we played at Austin Peay this year as a return trip for last years Bracketbusters game right?Which means we had a home Bracketbuster last year...We had a home Bracketbuster game 2 years in a row?How does the rotation go for these games?

24th in the coaches poll too.How sweet will it be for our first victory over a top 25 opponent to be a win over that hippie school out east?we've never beaten a ranked team?oh man, let's kick the tires and light the fires!espn should pick this game up.

Can't is now officially ranked #23 in the country, per the AP Poll.

If we were playing Duke or Pitt, the JAR would have sold out pretty quickly...We played VCU, and it didn't sell out...take it how you would like.I know you guys are a solid program, but face it, the average sports fan doesn't know who you are.You guys could be well known in Virginia, but in Ohio? Nope, they would rather come watch us play Miami, and Can't and Ohio.Go defend your program somewhere where people care about it

Lets just pla 13 games i know it's illegal and all but...

So I watched the replay, and I'm even more sure Dials shot was stupid.I was wrong, there was not 10 seconds left when he shot, there were 18 SECONDS LEFT!!!Quit trying to be the hero...

True. You guys played very good defense on him. If you guys want to know the real reason you lost, here it is: You guys missed wide open point blank 3 point shots ALL game long. You couldn't hit those shots to save your lives today.I couldn't agree more.Usually we shoot pretty much lights out from 3 at home, and I'd like to give credit to your perimeter defense, but there were at least 7 or 8 WIDE OPEN 3's we missed.One of those days I guess, congrats on the win, and hopefully you guys can get an at large if you don't win the tourney, represent the mid-majors well!Maybe we'll see you again in the real tournament after we win the MAC

Also, I think there is a reason Maynor played one of his worst games of the year.

Showed from the tip? After your 7-0 run to start, we were leading until 5 minutes left.props to VCU, they're a great team.now shut up we know we lost, no need to reiterate what already happened district.i could only wish our fanbase and "atmosphere" could compare to VCU's godly college basketball haven...get over yourself

I also wouldn't have minded seeing a quick layup and a foul instead of the 3 by Dials.If they miss one of the two, we get the ball back down 2, or even if they make em both, we're in the same spot as before, and 10 seconds is enough time.Skipzip, I played ball for a few years myself, I don't know about your coaching background, but that was a silly shot, I would rather take one, set shot with 3 seconds left,than an off balance, fadeaway with 13 seconds left. Although, I think the right move in the situation would be a quick layup and a foul.

I would rather see Dials commit 12 turnovers than take another shot like that at the end.No one's commented on it, but he had 2 guys on him, 10 seconds left, and put up a fade away 23 footer!!I'm almost positive we had a timeout left, use it and get something set up, or if you like your matchups on the floor, work and get a better shot, we had 10 more seconds!!!ugh.

LETS GO ZIPS!!!!

You guys could be right, for some reason I thought we had 3 before the NIU game, maybe not.

Were like 52-4 or something since Dambrot came, to add to your statistics...I don't know really, It gets very loud the way it was built with the low roof,out of conference we don't really schedule anyone at home, we average around 2500 OOC.Easy teams=wins, even with the small crowd.In the MAC we average around 4000-4500 I'd say...Tougher teams, but twice the crowd and noise, I say that is the difference.

Hey Mollaut, why is there such little student support at the games?MAC champs last year, pretty decent program year in and year out, I don't understand.I'm a hockey fan, and watched your game against Michigan, and it seemed like there was tons of supports there.Do you think that kind of raises the bar for b-ball? Seriously, I would bet we were louder than the Miami fans.I have a few friends at miami, and they think it's kind of sad that no one is interested in basketball.Just wondering what you think...

Everyone should have the privilege of reading this post at least once in their life.

AK!

I'm pretty sure these bleachers have a back to them...

ok so he sits him when opponents pick up on his bad defense, why not. Ride his hot hand until his defense is exposed, nothing wrong with that.

Why wouldn't KD want B. McKnight driving to the basket?That's a good question... he played for few minutes against NIU, driving to the basket, was 4/4 on FG, was substituted and never played again. It seemed like KD didn't like that.Don't you guys notice there are certain players KD will play over and over again, no matter if they are doing bad or not, gives them chances over and over, then there are others that get one or two chances, if you don't get it done, you are done....You sound like an angry parent.Give some actual evidence that this happens "over and over."
