  1. At the JAR, UB our rebounded the Zips by 11. If that happens again, I don't like our chances.
  2. 5.5 seconds left down 2 we sent UB to the line. UB player missed both free throws, but we didn't box out and they got a quick easy layup to go up 4 which cost us the game as we hit a 3 right after as time expired.
  3. End of the game Williams had a break away and made a freshman move to try and score a layup instead of running out the clock. He was pushed in the back with no call and EMU rebounded. They quickly called TO and were assessed the technical for not having a TO left. Should have been the end of the game but we got 1 shot*. *edited to reflect 1 shot and not the 2 originally stated
  4. Congrats to the team and the fans who didn't actually give up during the game. I continue to lose years of my life from stress by watching the MAC tourney. On to tomorrow where we will play better.
  5. I'd rather have 6 loses to RPI 100-199 than 3 losses to RPI 200+.
  6. UCLA (15-16) 99RPI ND (20-10) 37RPI USC (20-11) 46RPI GT (14-17) 103RPI 2 of these teams have losing records, but are historically good which helps their perception.
  7. They were up 13 with under 2 minutes left. We only scored 15 points in the first half too.
  8. Here are the top 4 seed's records against teams in their side of the bracket vs teams in the other side of the bracket. #1 Akron (5-3) vs (8-2) #2 OU (8-1) vs (3-6) #3 UB (3-4) vs (7-4) #4 CMU (5-3) vs (4-5)
  9. Tonight's game is a sell out per Akron's Facebook. Bring the noise.
  10. I saw the white smoke and thought a new president was announced.
  11. I hope the motivation of staying hot going into the tournament, beating our rival, and finishing the year undefeated at home is motivation enough. But, I do agree the let down potential is there after cutting down the nets. With a close to sell out, I think the crowd will motivate the team. I'm sure there will be lots of recruits there as well.
  12. That's what we used to say every time Nick Goddard missed a free throw.
  13. Great win to get March off to a great start. 39 3's in the last 2 games is crazy! It's always great to thump the kittens.
  14. Is Iowa State a 2-1 or 1-1 deal?
  15. I heard from someone that they tried to buy tickets this morning but they were sold out. Not sure if they tried online or the office though.
  16. And Akron only had 5 seasons with 7 wins and 6 seasons with 2 or fewer wins (4 1-win seasons). Not sure we can judge other team's historic futility.
  17. BG fan seems to think they are playing the Golden State Warriors tonight. http://www.ay-ziggy-zoomba.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=33801
  18. Our team managers that is. Akron is #2 in the nation in the latest Team Manager's national rankings. These games seem to be all the rage lately with ESPN, Washington Post, and other mainstream news doing stories on them. http://www.kpisports.net/rankings/d-i-mens-basketball-managers/
  19. Michigan State and Purdue have shown a willingness to travel to MAC schools.
  20. Well just check out last time we handed out a Lebron bobble head...6:10 was too late.
  21. This is an interesting point that should be looked at a little deeper. Right now, we have only played Villanova, OU, and Buffalo in the top 100 going 2-1. Maybe Arkansas, depending what day we look at the RPI, which makes us 3-1. We still have OU (1), UB (1), and Kent (2) left to play. Unfortunately, with Kent's injuries, they will probably slip out of the top 100. With Reardon out 3 games, UB has the same potential. Even OU has the potential to fall just shy of the 100 mark. If any of these scenarios happen, we could see our rank against the top 100 go anywhere from 0-1 to 7-1. This is another year we are missing the Bracket Buster which would be huge right now.
  22. Please tell us more about the situation since you know so much more than the staff.
  23. Ok, let's look at last year. The #30 RPI team didn't get in with a 27-6 record. Why? Because their strength of schedule was 111. How far into the triple digits will our strength of schedule end up?
  24. In 2006 Missouri Stat RPI #21 and Hofstra RPI #30 were left out. In 2007 #30 Air Force was also left out. What makes it interesting this year is that two tournament worthy teams will be sitting out this March (SMU, Louisville).
