Illini Zip Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 (edited) Toledo lost a trap game. Actually, the last 3 games must have been trap games. Edited March 1 by Illini Zip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reslife4Life Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 Very intriguing last 2 games for a group of 4 teams. Toledo, Ohio, Kent, and…… Eastern Michigan?!?!?! Tuesday - EMU @ ohio Akron @ toledo kent @ WMU Friday - EMU @ kent Ohio @ toledo Obviously it is a tough week for EMU but they have a chance to do something wild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It truly is the ultimate regular season sacrifice by Kowalchoke. He's all in on pleasing the basketball gods in Cleveland. He never had success in Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse, so maybe the combination of sucking during the regular season and arena name change to Rocket Arena will bring him the success he's looking for (probably not). Utah State fans have to be ecstatic they passed on him. Big week for the MAC to nail down the seeding. - Miami is locked into either the 2 or 3 (not quite sure how the tiebreaker would work if they fell into a tie with OU) - Ohio has a one game lead for the 3 seed which would put them on the Miami side of the bracket; with how they're playing and we're playing right now, this is best case scenario for us - Kent is currently the 4 seed, but tied record wise with Toledo; Toledo has Akron and Ohio while Kent has WMU and EMU - EMU and WMU are right on their tails at 8-8, one game back of Kent/Toledo; they do not play each other and both face Kent, so it would be amazing if they could knock Kent down to the 6 seed somehow (Miami's side of the bracket) - Akron's 1st round matchup is still up in the air with Balls & BUGS both at 7-9 (tiebreaker to Balls somehow); CMU is right there at 6-10 Thank goodness we don't have to worry about these final two games and can simply focus on getting right in every facet of the game before Cleveland. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed5120 Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 We look like a team that peaked in January. I wouldn't recommend just mailing it in the final week of MAC play. We need to work on making adjustments to get back to firing on all cylinders. Right now in February we're playing like a team that is marginally better than the rest of the MAC. That gives us good, but not great odds of winning in Cleveland. I'd be feeling a whole lot more confident right now if the MAC tournament started the beginning of February instead of March this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, with the exception of our defense. While not great, our defense has improved since January. Groce mentioned some bone-headed plays against Kent made by Johnson & Johnson in particular that need to get cleaned up. Also, our offense still needs work because teams are defending us differently. That said, if we are fortunate enough to make it to the NCAAT we would likely be able to run wide open like we did in January. So yes, all gas and no breaks to end the year, but I would rest Young if his knee is bothering him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morales quit the team. Second Kent player to quit the team this year alone. My guess is somebody in the athletic department had that graphic made weeks/months ago, and the social media team was too careless to notice that Morales was in the graphic. The situation had been kept hush hush up until Kent outed themselves by posting these tweets. Nothing but class from Pinky's Portage County Circus, per usual. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morales caught an elbow in practice some time after first Akron game. Broken orbital bone. Has since signed (per twitter) with an international team. Also note, since that first Akron game those guys have been playing much better, ... for them. Whichever story is right, was a net positive for them.
