Zip Watcher Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Well, I hit the ground last night & got paged with a pretty good halftime score. Almost put my car into the center barrier on 480 when I read the halftime score: 39-15 :blink: :blink: Was hoping that they'd keep it close and steal it at the end, but that worked for me too. Listened to the second half (or about the last 16) & have some thoughts: - 15-0 Start. Anyone know if they started in zone or man? I'm wondering if KD brought out the secret sauce at the beginning. Great start. - 69 points is not a lot for this team. To win by 20 when you score 10 less than your season average says a lot about what kind of defense you're playing. - Nice balance .. multiple guys in double figs .. nobody over 16? Seems like a team win all around. - Anyone else notice that in all of the topics that OU fans have going to discuss the game, either at macBBS or at the litter box, there is no mention or credit given to the fact that Akron might have come prepared and played well. It's all about TOS and how OU missed some shots. No credit to the team that just kicked their asses on their home floor. That's the biggest difference I see between the litter box and sites like this, MiamiHawkTalk, BSUFans and AyZiggyZoomba .. in the litter box, it's only about the crap their sitting in, and not so much about why they might have crapped on themselves. - That was a HUGE win .. and now Wednesday night will help even more. If you look at Miami's schedule, they have a few tough ones left, so a win on Wed. puts some pressure on them and keeps the East in play. A Miami win assures them a tie for the East titile. - Looking forward to Niagra .. sounds like they like to get up and down the court. I look at this as a way to start helping position the Zips for an NIT bid. The RPI isn't going to get real high, but a strong finish around 18 or 19 wins would go a long way to playing in the NIT, and that would be a great experience for this club in this first season under KD. Great win guys! Nicely done KD! Go Zips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kflasher Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Nice job smacking OU last night. That will shut them up for a while. Oh, BTW, lest you forget, 57-54 See ya in 10 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jupitertoo Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Congrats on your performance in Athens. I'm not a big fan of Keith Dambrot, based on past experience, but I doubt there's a coach in the league who has done a better job this year. He definitely deserves COY honors. Tim O'Shea of Ohio, on the other hand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fan37 Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 I AM a big fan of kd, due to past association, I too believe he's COY, how about that COY in fb and bb (possibly bb). Nice going Mike Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't State two game skid and still talking (well, maybe whispering) smack. Romeo and crew have a couple of things to take care of and then it will be your turn.

Guest ohio bobcat fan Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 As a Bobcat Fan, Congratulations on your victory in the Convo. But, being personally at the game, I don't think the Zips played all that well. Again, only one mans observation from inside the convo. However, I would like to say, despite the fact I don't think the Zips played all that well, I have seen them play several times this year on TV, and I think that you guys are one of the better teams in the MAC. I also believe there is an outside shot for you to win the conference title. That should tell you how I feel about the Zips, and about how I feel the Bobcats played on Wednesday.

I hate to point out the obvious to you, but if WE didn't play well, it says less than nothing about the Bobcats, and you must have bigger problems than you think. That said, I believe we are far from perfection but improving by leaps and bounds in almost every game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
