You guys follow the rest of the conference closer than I do...I hope you're right in your analysis of the rest of the league. Sounds like Marches will be fun again!

Buffalo/Kent last night was quite ugly.  Buffalo gets a lot of rebounds and Pippin for Kent made 6 straight free throws at the end to seal it for PCCC.  Buffalo is a shadow of what they were last year.  Today worries me because Kittens can get hot from 3 like Toledo did.  However, Kittens don't have the athletes that Rockets have.  If Zips can get a lead and keep fresh legs on the court Kittens should fold.

Random ramblings....

 

Big winner of the day appears to be C Mich who  took down Ball St and got McKay back into the lineup. on the same day.  Coupled with Toledo's loss they find themselves right in the thick of things in the west.  

 

Frye played out of his mind tonight for BG. Their stock has risen sharply since the return of Turner. It's no accident that they are right there with us at the top.

 

With arguably the MACs  best trio Toledo just doesn't seem to have enough around them. They seriously lack any quality depth at all. Not at all sold on Todd being any great shakes as a coach either.

 

Buffalo's defense is  horrible.  I look for a  BIG statement W on Tuesday. The Bulls are an average MAC squad. No better, no worse.

 

Last but not least, we have the most exciting player in the league by far. Just love watching LCJ  play.

I would have guessed that Marreon Jackson would be the top contender as he's the only other MAC player consistently putting up gaudy scoring totals in MAC play. I guess when your team is 3-6 in conference play that automatically disqualifies you.

 

Turner is probably another guy to keep an eye on. His numbers aren't as good as LCJ, but BGSU is currently in 1st place.

Two big games tomorrow night:

 

Pinky takes the Flashes to Dekalb.  7pm CBSSN

Keno and The Chipps head to Canada:  9pm ESPNU

 

I'm conflicted on these two games.

Personally, I'll be cheering for DeKalb & Canada as I think the Flushes and Chipps are more serious competitors to us for an improved seed.

Yep.  Great Zips fans think alike.  We know how this works.  Yeah, need to bottom 4 to stay the bottom 4 and maybe have one or two at the top who take out those in the middle during the regular season.

Mitch Peterson down. Scary. He's not getting up.  Head/Neck injury it looks like.  Ambulance called.  Looks like he will be ok.

 

Here's hoping he's okay.  Kid always plays hard.  You have to root for the local kid even if he did use poor judgment in selecting a college.
