Interesting.

We go to Buffalo and give one of the 2 best teams in the MAC a good game for about 35 minutes. Truly went toe-to-toe with them.

Then we play one of the 2 worst teams in the MAC at home, give up a 13 point lead in the second half, and get taken to the buzzer. This against a team that returned 1 player from last season. One.

I see no better than a 9-9 record in the MAC. Still have the same problems we’ve had for a few seasons. That ain’t gonna change until some other things change.

Yeah. Just get the impression watching that we aren’t very good. No real spark. Hard to watch at times.

It's amazing how different people can watch the same game and have such different perspectives. I saw a team make clutch plays down the stretch to win a close game. Though Akron is not as good as they've been the last several years, they are still a decent team. The MAC is so balanced this season and there will be a lot of close games.

The Rockets would have lost this game last season, but they made winning plays at the end tonight. The objective of the game is to win. It doesn't matter if they win each game by one point. Just win!

Go Rockets!

Akron is not a “decent” team. I will be very surprised to hear that TK was happy with this game, other than it was a W. This wasn’t a game we should have needed clutch plays in the final minute to win.
