For those not aware this is the metric the NCAA created to replace RPI for the purpose of evaluating resumes and to help seed teams. This is how the MAC currently stands. 1) Kent St. - 24 2) Akron - 137 3) Toledo - 156 4) Ball St - 165 5) Ohio - 182 6) Buffalo - 185 7) CMU - 220 '8) NIU - 287 9) BGSU - 295 10) EMU - 325 11) Miami - 329 12) WMU - 338 I am sure we got a big boost after beating Muskingon so handily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Kent is hanging around with Gonzaga at the break. Zags shoot like the Zips from the perimeter and free throw line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Flashes up 4 at the final media. 68-game Zags home win streak on the line. Yeah, they’re for real. Zips have a big hill to climb this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoyalZIP Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Disaster avoided and sanity prevails. Zags remembered they were the Zags. Carry isn’t very good in these big time games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what big time programs (like UCLA) do. they turn it on when it counts. If it's going to be a knock down, dog fight under the basket, the blue blood teams will win unless the underdog is hot from 3. l looking at play by play. Kent goes up by 4 with a 3 by Thomas. Pinky calls time out and then its the under 4 TV time out. They didn't score after that. WTF?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in the middle of a 9 game(!) home stand. Marshall, who needs a punch in the nose, is next. Well this aged like 2 week old milk Marshall 46 36 82 Duquesne 27 44 71 Marshall now 8-1 and has only trailed for 7 min and 42 seconds this year so far.

kreed5120 Posted December 9, 2022 Report Share Posted December 9, 2022 We're 8 games into the season, which is a decent sample size. We're shooting 40% from the field, 31.9% from 3, and 60.3% from the free throw line. Our average shooting night is still pretty horrendous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kreed5120 Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 A slow day at the office today so figured I'd share the latest NET rankings. 33 Kent St. 141 Ball St. 144 Akron 156 Toledo 189 Ohio 210 Buffalo 252 Bowling Green 285 Central Mich. 304 NIU 310 Eastern Mich. 330 Miami (OH) 343 Western Mich. The MAC is truly an embarrassment this year. If you take out Kent, which is a clear outlier, the conference is on par with the Horizon League. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a chance to meet and watch Lou's son Chauncey Orr after he transferred from BGSU to Hawaii Pacific U.

Akron and Toledo have really dropped the ball in nonconference play as they should be on par with Kent. What should have been one of the MAC’s best seasons has proved to be one of the worst so far. Lots of underachieving across the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWAkron Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 Toledo gave up 100 against Marshall. Miami "gets a signature road win" against Bellarmine? Lairy had 30. Ball State looking solid with win over Illinois State. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 Not the MAC, but Ali made his debut for Butler today. In 13 minutes off the bench, went 1-4 from the floor, 3-3 on FTs for 6 points. They lost by 22 at home to UConn. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Zips lack of size will help make up for the shooting. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
