I love having ESPN U. Thanks for the reminder about tonight's game.
I will be watching down here in SC. I think WMU has the decided edge, but they also seem to have a less than stellar record in games on TV. Here's hoping that trend continues and the Chippewas pull out a very rare win on the road.
I hope CMU doesn't figure out their problems tonight but they usually play well against us.
CMU 52
WMU 72
Ugly game - at times hard to watch. 51 fouls called. As Jim Chones called it, in the second half there was no flow due to all the whistles.
Next stop for the Broncos, who have won 6 of the past 8 and held those teams to an average of 57.5 pts. - the east division.

MAC officials blowing their whistles and creating a game with no flow? I don't believe it for a second. You must be joking.
at least there was one thriller tonight

True but we absolutely choked(though I am sure BSU had a lot to do with it). We were up 18 in the first half(and 16 in the second half) and eventually gave up the lead to BSU before coming back and pulling it out. Not sure if accurate but according to a poster on our board:
NIU "didn't make a fg from 15:27 to 0:20 in the 2nd half but still win"
NIU 5-2 at home now, 2-3 in the MAC.
Should be 6-1 and 3-2, but that EMU game was awful.
NIU only needs one more win to tie last season's win total with 12 more games left to play.
Ball State's superior floor game allowed them to come back and nearly make up for a poor shooting percentage on the road.
Turnovers: BSU 5, NIU 19.
Steals: BSU 10, NIU 1.
