AkronAlumnus Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Yikes... they're shooting the lights out. Hopefully a cold spell is in the forecast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWAkron Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 16.5 favorites. Maybe GT has reason to be cynical about this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIU shooting 64%? Ugly start. The gold numbers are more readable than many. I don't think many teams including the NBA pay much attention to readability these days.

MDZip Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 If I was home I'd be able to watch this. But here its just Gamecast. Damn 2:00 start times. At least back to back Wynn and Trimble threes has made it close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LZIp Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Trimble is insane. I'd be curious to see how his 3 pt % compares to the likes of Banks, McAdams, Kretzer, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LZIp Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 NIU was lights out and we are only down 4. I expect us to get it together and be okay. Taking NIU +17 was easy money though (knock on wood). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDZip Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) Wow I can't imagine Groce will be too pleased at the half. Good news is since NIU only averages 59 a game they are due for a 14 point second half. Sheez Edited February 16, 2021 by MDZip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1981 grad Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Although Ali just made a 3 bouncing off the rim, he and Freeman have been quiet today on offense. Rare that Freeman does not get loose for some putbacks or baskets on the give and go. Northern Illinois looked good the first half. A lot of motion on offense and great shooting. They have had some stupid turnovers or this could be much worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1981 grad Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Also, still getting use to the commentary that is strictly on the game with no insights into MAC basketball from 20 years ago and degrading comments about the players. Jackie and Reghi are doing a great job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDZip Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Zool Kueth (wasn't he one of the evil spirits in Ghostbusters? ;-)) is 4-4 on threes. Need a bit more defense on him I'd just be guessing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowdyZip Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Maybe it's an afternoon game thing? 3 of our 4 losses were 2p or 3p starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
