Lady Zips got the #BeatOU day rolling by beating the Bobcats in Athens 88-76. Go Zips! #BeatOU

Yes, it's the same Bowling Green came back and beat Buffalo. That's three straight games on the road that Bowling Green didn't "run away" with it like at home. Looks like BG and CMU will be the top 2 seeds. Akron most likely will be the 3 seed. Akron beat Ohio. Akron blew it open, and let the Bobcats get back in it down in the Convo. Not a bad win though. Home against Miami(OH), and then a small roadtrip to Can't State. Two wins there. The last two regular season games will be the "juggernaut" games (@Buffalo, vs BG).

Halftime Akron - 41 Ohio - 30 Bowling Green - 36 Buffalo - 35

I saw UAZip0510 started one, but I figured it would be better to separate the men's and women's, so the people that don't want to see the women's updates, they don't have to scroll through the women's posts to see the men's. This will be the topic I use from this point on for scoring updates on the Lady Zips, updated projections, and other MAC lady hoops news. 1. Central Michigan 15-1 = vs WMU, @ EMU 2.

Here's the press conference ZZZips is referring to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uVCZz3uihI

Lady Zips win 82-62. Very impressive win. Defensively, one of the best efforts I've seen out of the Lady Zips. Toledo didn't have many good shots, and when they did, they missed a few easy ones due to the constant pressure. Toledo shot 3-26 from three, and 23-73 overall. Part of that is youthful bad shots, and good defense by the Lady Zips. HUGE game sunday at 2pm before the Super Bowl at the JAR. Buffalo just won at the buzzer at home vs Miami, and that means the winner of Buffalo-Akron on sunday, will be in sole possession of the 3rd seed at the halfway point of the conference regular season.

Under 4 media timeout(3:12) in the game. Lady Zips up 77-54.

Lady Zips up 72-47 with 7:41 left. This a Toledo program that was the Regular Season champions, and only lost to CMU @ CMU by 11. We lost to CMU by 26 in Akron. That tells you the matchup disparity in the MAC this season.

Toledo game thread for tonight

Lady Zips up 55-31 at U16(15:20) media timeout in the 2nd half. In other women's MAC action, Ohio is leading BG at half, CMU only up 6 on EMU at home, and Buffalo up 30-20 on Miami.

Lady Zips up 48-26 at halftime. Shooting 52 percent and 45 percent from threes. Scary part about this half for Toledo? National Player of the Week, Rachel Tecca, only has 6 points at the half. Luburgh 13, Brown 9, Young 7, Tecca 6, Plybon 5, Cassell 5, Gibson 3.

Toledo coach is not happy right now. Just called her 3rd timeout. Lady Zips up 42-22.

Under 4 media timeout(3:39). Lady Zips up 40-20.

Rockets finally waking up. 7-0 run to cut the Lady Zips lead to 27-13 just before the under 8 media timeout.
