I hate to disagree with the mother of our best player. But I'm glad ORU pulled that one out.

And, there is no doubt the Zips can pull off a win, even if ORU went out and won by 30 tonight. Just got to play a solid game.

Dont' worry...I'm glad they won too...that way when we beat them..we can wipe that smug look off of their faces--especially since they think so little of us as a team...But that is cool...keep thinking we aren't a worthy competitor!!

No doubt. I read the post on their message board and they didn't seem thrilled to draw Akron. However, most people on here weren't thrilled about drawing ORU, either. Overall, it is looking like the right call for the selection committee to make as the teams are nearly identical in RPI.

Hopefully, the team is as fired up as you are about the matchup. ORU is a good team, but it's a very winnable game. The team just has to cancel out all the noise (on here, the ORU board, ESPN, etc.) and play like it did against Mississippi State, Marshall or even VCU (despite the loss) and I like their chances.

Yep. Go all non-conf opponents! And we need a 12-0 bracket buster for the MAC. The game at ORU sure is looking a lot more winnable if RPI #248 takes em to OT.

I'm just playing devil's advocate here, but I'm sure the ORU people are saying the same thing about Akron. After all, No. 182 Western Michigan took the Zips to OT. Sure, Akron was on the road and ORU was at home, but both didn't exactly handle business against inferior competition the last two days.
