Calling it now - I think UMass gives Miami loss number 1 at home next Tuesday. 

Either Umass or Buffalo will give Miami a good game

UMass is a good team that can shoot very well. But if the MAC doesn't get their fouling in check I could see a bench clearing brawl in the future. My prediction is it happens when UMass plays Kent.

Really happy to see Marvin get some minutes and really play well.  His foul shots were pure gold.  You could tell he has been working on that part of his game.  Made some real hustle plays.  That was the 2nd bizarre game at the JAR in a row.  Kent went 1 for 23 from 3 and in this game we almost shot 50 foul shots.  That 10 minute intermission while the refs reviewed the scrum like it was the Kennedy assasination film was rediculous.  I thought the Zips played well but our 3 point shooting was well below 40%.  We also played slow and often shot near the end of the shot clock.  I was surprised to see how much trap zone we played.  The Zips did a great job on the boards against a very physical team.  I thought we were more athletic and quicker than Mass.  Great win for the Zips!!!

Eric rebounded really aggressively. It's something I've noticed we don't do often. A lot of times we'll block out really well and then just kind of wait for the ball to come down while defenders are jumping over us. Eric just want up and grabbed the damn ball. Good to see

kept looking at the corner scoreboard and subtracting UMass made FTs from Zips made FTs and subtracted that from Akron's score.
