Huskies @ Eagles
Monster huge game for seeding. Huskies still alive for 3 or a 4 seed if they win the last 3. Buffalo losing to Akron helps tonight. I have no idea how this game will go, wouldn't surprise me if NIU won by 20, loss by 20, or a close game haha. What are people's gut instincts how this one goes?

RE: Huskies @ Eagles
Huskies have no chance of catching Buffalo or Ohio. Both would have to lose remaining games and the Huskies would have to win out. NIU only chance is a 4-seed by catching Ball St. Huskies likely a 5,6,7 or 8 seed

If Huskies win out and Buffalo loses vs Ohio and vs BGSU, Huskies will probably be a 3 seed. Buffalo losing out only involves 2 games now , and one of those is against Ohio. Its a slim chance, but not a negligible chance. Many more scenarios out there that would give NIU a 4 seed if NIU wins out

If Huskies win out and Buffalo loses vs Ohio and vs BGSU, Huskies will probably be a 3 seed (would probably also need CMU to beat WMU, but even if that didn't happen, NIU would be a 4 seed in all likelihood).

Getting run out of the gym early---this conversation will quickly take the turn of a probably 9 or 10 seed.

Yeah haha, forget that 3 or 4 seed, home game still possible if they win the last 2, but obviously winning at Ball St would be a long shot now.

Porter just went Porter.
1. Turnover
2. Doesn't hustle back
3. Grabs some bench

Shooting very well. Hopefully EMU cools off from 3 in second half. Value each possession!

Moral of the story I learned, don't take a good offensive night against CMU as a sign of anything positive , geesh.

RE: Huskies @ Eagles
I think the Porter w German backcourt could be real exciting the next couple of years. Porter just needs to tidy things up, he has the weirdest turnovers, I swear.

Probably their worst effort(or lack of) this season. Embarassing

Sometimes we mix up luck with a good basketball team. We just got lucky against CMU.
We are back to average today.

Eric "Armstrong" multiple times. Yes these guys sucked today and so did the announcers.
