The Zips win 91-90 on a free throw with 2 seconds left.

49 fouls called. 63 total FT attempts. Lots and lots of touch fouls. Disgusting.

Ruined what otherwise was an extremely high level and entertaining game.

I would be a little hot if I was a UB fan, I am not sure what it takes for officials to call a charge on Akron. Buffalo is probably the most athletic team in the conference. If they had a pure shooting guard, I think they would be the team to beat.

Buffalo came into last night shooting 27% as a team from 3 point land. They shot 10/22 from behind the arc last night. If they are hitting their shots from behind the arc combined with their athletes ability to attack the basket, they become a really hard team to defend.

Under 16 years of Charlie Coles, we lost two home MAC games by 15 points or more. Under about 5 years of Cooper, we've had six such losses including yesterday. If that doesn't tell you how bad we've become, I don't know what will.
