mes102 Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Posted March 9, 2016 Since I'm not sure if I'll be on here tomorrow, here's my predictions: #1 Ohio over #8 Buffalo #5 Akron over #4 Toledo #7 Western Michigan over #2 Central Michigan #3 Ball State over #6 Eastern Michigan #1 Akron over #8 Eastern Michigan #4 Central Michigan over #12 Bowling Green #7 Northern Illinois over #2 Ohio #3 Buffalo over #11 Miami(OH) Quote

They got off to a horrendous start, but finished strong. In the last 2 weeks alone they had wins over the #1, #3, #5, and #6 seeded MAC teams. Lone loss was by 1 possession to #2 team. Sure, it's certainly a matter of option on the first part. I'll take the lowest seed, who just scored an upset, had to play on the road, and has to travel in a couple of days to play again. But what's not a matter of opinion is how much our guys would love to put a beating on Miami for the way they played in Oxford. Quote
RobotHam Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 All I care about is Akron sweeping the MAC Tourney on both sides! Quote
LoyalZIP Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Ohio women lose to Buffalo...again. That makes the road to the championship much easier BUT worry about UT first. Quote

LoyalZIP Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Zips lead 40-36 at the half. They are shooting 51% and 54% from three, Anita Brown has 21 points and 4 rebounds. 2 Quote
kreed5120 Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Toledo went on a 8-0 run to start the 4th to take a 52-50 lead. Quote
LoyalZIP Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Going to OT tied at 60. We're pretty lucky to have this chance, the second half was pretty bad. Brown has 31. Quote
MDZip Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Anita Brown has almost half the teams points (33 of 67), wow. Zips up by 4 with 1:25 left in OT. Quote
LZIp Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Nice win, ladies. Man that was a shitty stream, though. Quote
LoyalZIP Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Anita Brown scores 37 and gets 7 assists and Barilla puts up 6 points, 10 boards, and 6 assists to give the Zips a 73-71 win in OT. Zips play Buffalo on Friday. Quote

I had to wait through frozen screens repeatedly to see what was happening. But that was an exciting game. Glad I took the time to watch it. And what a break for the girls, getting to play the #8 instead of the #1 in the semifinal. Oh, and Anita Brown is unbelievable. Dear Men's Basketball Recruiters: Give me ONE forward who can create their own shot, like Anita, sometime this decade. Edited March 9, 2016 by skip-zip edit Quote

When Plybon (SG) and Barilla (PG) are on the floor, she's playing a wing, at best. Regardless, she dribbles and creates space and gets a lot of open shots in that 10-15 foot range, even with larger defenders on her. 25 minutes ago, Blue & Gold said: Next year you'll get two. Daniel Utomi. Isaiah Williams. I hope you're right. But what are our chances when we've really never had a player at that spot who can play like that? Don't get me wrong. I love Reggie and Jake, and what they've done for us. But, I'd love to see a 6-6 to 6-8 player come in there who can dribble, create space, and make a 10 foot fade away jumper in the paint. Quote
skip-zip Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 A guard who can finish would be nice too Quote
