A Tavari three and an Evan Wilson appearance. Two daggers!!

Evan Wilson waiting to come in. We need a dead ball.

Great job by the Zips on Davis tonight.

Deliberate but good possessions from here on out.

PCCC fans leaving to get home before their house arrest bracelets report them as out.

I love how the Zips have responded every time PCCC has made a run so far tonight.

Is the clock broken??? This feels like it is taking forever!

Some bad transition defense there. Now shake it off and finish strong. They're going to have to come back with threes so lock down the perimeter defense.

C'mon Nate, dunk that ball or make those free throws!

Okonkwo playing with a lot of fire for a guy who doesn't have experience in the rivalry.

I so want them to come out and "step on their necks" but it's never just that easy.

A couple of months in a conservative Christian school is apparently bad for your game.

Young showing who's the best freshman in the MAC. Bud Wentz seeing a future requiring deeper pockets.

How about "Pink Vomit."

MONEY LINE BABY!

There were years I could see this happening. I don't see a team with guys like Gray, Scott, Wilson and the Johnsons getting punked.

DraftKings has it Zips +2.5 and the under/over at 144.5. Those number are all about getting equal money on both sides of the equation, but the betting public obviously sees Kent's pace and defense impacting the result.

Total under 135- PCCC wins Total over 135- Zips win Total over 155- Zips win big

There will invariably be some chippiness, especially if the Zips get on a run. The Zips need to keep their composure if that happens. I think Isaiah Gray is important in this one, especially if he's the guy to guard Davis. When Davis came to KSU, I didn't think much of him after looking at some of his high school clips but he has really turned into a fine player.

The Zips app just sent me the Miami score from Saturday. I think they're a little more proud of that one. LOL.

7 turnovers and 4 assists. There goes the assist to turnover ratio.

The Zips head to the barn in Brimfield Friday night to face the arch-rival. The Flushes come into the game at an uncharacteristic 13-7 and are 4-4 in the MAC. They are coming off of a home win against BG. VonCameron Davis leads the team at 15.4 ppg. Jalen Sullinger, fresh off of his brief tour of Furman in South Carolina, averages 11.8 ppg. Cli’ron Hornbeak (that sounds like some rare Australian bird) leads the team in rebounding at 6.4 rpg. They are first in MAC defense and last in offense. They are 11th in field goal percentage, led by Sullinger’s awful shooting thus far. It will be interesting to see how these teams with such different styles plays out. I predict it will be extra chippy and Mr. Pinky will be extra pink. I expect Gray to bounce off of Davis quite a bit as he’s the Zips best body up defender.

Zips getting on the floor with a minute left and up 14. That's a great sign.

One aspect overlooked in Nate's game is his anticipation on defense resulting in steals and breakaways.

Feed is sketchy tonight.
