you took the words right out of my mouth. The NCAA is not built for a second MAC (or other mid-major conference) team. The highest seed they will allow is 13. NO WAY a MAC school will be seeded higher.

agree

Great game last night. Obviously a very good win. Buffalo's fans were really good. I especially liked when they started the "Ken+ St" Sucks chant. I now see the hate for Bobby. He is a baby. I was surprised the refs let it go on so long before they gave him the warning. I saw Ryan Isleys (92.3) twitter today and he was tweeting how Bobby stared him down in the hallway and that he was told he can't ask Bobby any questions or Bobby would be pulled from the post game. It started last year when Ryan wrote an article about how the MAC is going to handle his antics. he is a chump. I am looking forward to Tuesday's game.

I doubt GT would work that hard to find those stats....or they'd be inaccurate!

Deji has started two games this year....in those two starts he is 6-15 for 15 points. He is the perfect player to come off of the bench.... that must be why KD gives him his 18 minutes a night with the 2nd unit. I don't know what stats jump out that say "Start Deji." You point out that he and Pat lead the team in FT's and something is wrong when the Zips only take 6 FTs in a game, Deji played the 3rd most minutes vs OU and only got to the line once. Everyone has a role on a team, just because Deji started 6-6 vs OU doesn't immediately change his role to a starter 22 games into the season. Deji's job is to provide a spark off of the bench and he does that pretty well.

Deji played more minutes (22) than his season average (18).

Why all the hate for Bobby Hurley?

If they go 2-5 from the free throw line they win the game. Tough loss.

Tomato, Tomato

Add Big Dog, Nyles & Quan to that list.....

I don't like Quan and Nyles on the floor together this late in the game. Edit: Neither did KD.

Why is N'Dor wearing eye black?

It's possible. Alabama Boys HS game.

Maybe that's why I don't bet.

If UA is a legit contender to win the MAC this year (which I think they are to this point) this game shouldn't be close. I understand that this is a MAC road game and road games in the MAC are tough but OU is one of the worst teams in the conference this year (man that hurts to say that, I like when OU is good). Now is the time of the year where teams should be setting themselves up for March...part of that is winning games like you should. I haven't seen a line on this game but I bet UA is favored by at least 8.

This game shouldn't even be close. OU is really bad this year. UA should win this game by at least 10

"The Zips are beginning to show signs of who they are as the stretch run for the regular season conference title begins. Two admirable traits — defensive tenacity and resilience — are becoming calling cards for the Zips. Both revealed themselves with gusto against Bowling Green." How does he know? He only sees their home games.

Let's worry about winning the MAC before we get our panties in a bunch about the NCAA tournament.

Payne was not on the team at Firestone when Darius was there.

Darius Carter was recruited heavily by KD and McFadden. He couldn't get the grades at FHS and they gave up on him. That is also the reason he went to JUCO and then ended up at Wichita St. EDIT: For what it's worth, Geno wanted him at Can't too and stopped recruiting him and shifted their focus to Mark Henniger from Jackson and KD went after Josh Egner.... Darius was never going to be a MAC player.

Did you stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night?

Amen.

I was more so referring to the scoring in the 1st half and not so much the opponent. I have never been to an OSU game but I cant imagine they (or any fan base) would be going crazy 11 minutes in to the game and their team has scored 7 points.

When talking about "uninterested fans," I think that the Ball St game is a bad game to use as an example.

The twice a year is for the Coaches vs Cancer week (which was 1/19-1/25) and the Purple Out. So, this year they will be worn once...unless they wear them randomly one more time this year.
