Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Miami hits a 3 and leads 64-63, 34 seconds left and Can't with the ball. Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Can't turnover, Miami gets the ball, Can't fouls, Miami hits 2 free throws to go up 66-63 with 13 seconds to go. Quote
RowdyZip Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 I like what I'm seeing. Close it out, Charlie and Co. Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Can't ties it with a 3, and its OT at 66-66. Quote
RowdyZip Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Can't ties it with a 3, and its OT at 66-66. Poop. Quote
UAZipster0305 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Go ahead and say it, who called this one? Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Greene, Manns and Porrini enter OT with 4 fouls each for Can't, while Winbush and Mavunga each have 3 for Miami. Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Porrini fouls out, Miami up 71-70 halfway through first OT. Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Miami up 74-70 with 1:18 left. Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Miami up 78-70 with 46 seconds to go. Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Miami up 79-72 with 37 seconds left. Quote
UAZipster0305 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Things are getting tight at the top of the east division. We can do it but have to be nearly flawless the rest of the way. Man, those losses to NIU and EMU really sting! Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Zips have a better chance to be the #1 seed now if everything falls their way. Beating Miami at home and Can't on the road is critical now. Quote
akronzips71 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Zips have a better chance to be the #1 seed now if everything falls their way. Beating Miami at home and Can't on the road is critical now. YES I think Does that make us one game behind or two? The K E N T game is shaping up as a biggie Quote
akronzips71 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 OK, if I am seeing this right: We run the table K E N T loses one more game beside against us. Miami loses two games - one to us Then it is up to the tiebreakers to win the MAC???? The fact that it is even still possible is amazing. We were under .500 Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Miami 9-3 Can't 8-3 Akron 7-5 Buffalo 7-5 BUGS 7-5 Ohio 6-6 Zips need to beat Miami and Can't and have at least one other team beat Miami and Can't. Not much room for error to grab the #1 seed. Quote
RowdyZip Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 If I read THIS right, if the Zips run the table and both K-ent and Miami lose one additional game, Akron would win the MAC Championship by virtue of a 2-0 record vs K-ent. Head to head (if somehow we run the table): vs K-ent 2-0, vs. Miami 1-1 Record vs ranked teams: If BSU wins west, Akron is 1-0 vs #2, Miami is 1-0 vs #2 If WMU wins west, Akron is 1-0 vs #2, Miami is 0-1 vs #2 In a different scenario, if K-ent loses two more games, and Miami loses 1 in addition to us, we could still win the Championship via tiebreakers if WMU pulls out the West by virtue of their victory over Miami. So...root for WMU to win the west, and Miami and Can't to each lose at least one more game in addition to our matchups with them. Wow, gotta love how convoluted it is with just 4 conference games remaining. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Just win out. If you can beat them on the road, you can beat them at the Q. Seeding doesn't matter when you can beat any of the teams. Quote
skip-zip Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 I'll just be happy with a first round bye, after where we were two weeks ago. And Miami just made that a lot more challenging with a win tonight. But, it never disappoints me to see Ken+ lose I'm sure winning the rest of our games is a MUST to have a chance at the #1 seed. We still trail Ken+ by 2 in the loss column. Whoever wished for these two teams to get pushed to overtime tonight got their wish. I hope that stretches both of them thin in the coming days. Quote
UAZipster0305 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Whoever wished for these two teams to get pushed to overtime tonight got their wish. I hope that stretches both of them thin in the coming days. That was me. I think the OT game along with their stretch of 5 games in 10 days will have Can't struggling down the stretch. Quote
Valpo Zip Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 I'll be happy with the 3rd seed overall. Always ends up with the easiest path to the final. Beating the west champ (seed 2) is usually easier than beating seed 4. Quote
ZippyTuba11 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 I don't care about seeding for the MAC tourney as they've proven seeding doesn't matter to actually winning it. I'd rather they be more concerned with at least playing their way into the NIT. It would be great to actually have something guaranteed going into the MAC tourney for once. I might die if they won the season -and- tournament championships in the same year. Quote

OZoner Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 There was no video of any kind for the game. Miami's AD is against it! Quote
