Yeah... -2.5 - pretty much a blow out

It's sounding iffy for Holmes. If he doesn't play, I like our chances. If he does, we better hit some outside shots because we won't get much done inside.

They've reset their prediction from 3 stars to just 1 star. They might know more abouts Holmes than we do.

i dont have anything insightful to say here, but im excited about tomorrow's game. it's the last chance to salvage a season that has been very disappointing over the last two months, and i want the good feelings of last night's game to continue for a couple more days. and most importantly, if we are somehow able to make it to the mac championship game on saturday, ill be in cleveland screaming my poor heart out.

I will get there too if we make it to Saturday.

Just scanned through Twitter and couldn't find anything new about his status for our game. I'm guessing he'll be a game time decision.

Emu +2 it was 2.5

Only Holmes update is that he is "questionable" for tonight.

I would assume that if it was a concussion, that he wouldn't play tonight. From my understanding, the concussion happened on Friday. Playing five days later would seem like a quick return.

Seems like BG has been careful to say "concussive-like symptoms" when describing his injury, rather than actually announcing it as a concussion. Who knows? Everything I see on Twitter still says questionable. I guess we'll find out in about 4 hours.

im in my office typing away and im excited for this game. i cant even begin to imagine what the players are feeling right now.

Aaron, you should change your name to SirJinxalot. Sure sign of a loss is someone posting how excited they are. :-)

Holmes is dressed and warming up. Don't know if that means he will play, but take it for what it's worth.

Edit: Upgraded to probable and will likely start. Looks like we will get full strength BG. Gonna be a tough one.

Good start offensively. Not so much defensively. BG getting into the paint pretty easily.

Talley has hit a couple 3's...the only problem is when that happens, he thinks he's Stephen Curry and just starts jacking them up from wherever. Needs to settle it down a bit.

Awful game so far defensively. Bowling Green is picking us apart inside. They're starting to build a comfortable lead. Someone not named Lee or Talley needs to step up.

We are playing extremely aggressive, more than normal. Trying to jump every pass, not working enough and leaving us out of position.

Richaun Holmes is such a stud. What can't that kid do?

Luckily their guards can't stay in front of our guards, or they'd be blowing us out right now. They're executing their offense very well.

2 of the best defensive teams in the conference, so naturally it's been a high scoring affair thus far.

We are somehow leading at the half on the back of Talley and Lee. Hasn't been TOO much to complain about offensively, and we got a little better defensively toward the end of the half. Keep letting them chuck up long 2's. Every possession that the ball doesn't touch Holmes' hands within 10 feet of the basket is a good possession for us.
