The common opponent is Cleveland State, who defeated the Broncos by 22 points in late November.

Western Michigan has held their own against Big Ten Opponents including a ten point loss to #14 Wisconsin (76-66) and a one point loss to Minnesota.

The Flashes will have to slow down Lamar Norman Jr. (17.1 ppg) and Trey Maddox (11.1 ppg). Both of these guards are Michigan kids who transferred back home. Norman Jr., a 6'1 guard, played for three seasons at Duquense while the 6'6 Maddox made the return trip to Michigan from Cal State Fullerton.

Another guy to watch tonight is 6'8 junior center Titus Wright. He has....are you ready for this...played all three seasons at WMU. This season has has started all 13 games and averages 7.4 points on 60% shooting. Wright and 6'7 forward Markese Hastings will challenge the Flashes under the hoop.

From what I can tell this is your typical Jekyll and Hyde WMU team that we grew to love under Coach Hawkins. Can they beat the Golden Flashes? Sure. Should they beat the Golden Flashes? No way. My deep dive analytical research tells me that if Kent State limits WMU to one shot and takes care of the basketball, the good guys will be 1-0 after tonight's contest.

Kent State 73
Western Michigan 58
Carry puts in 17 and Jacobs just misses a double double with 11 and 8

GO FLASHES!

I think we have a lot of company. 92.3 The Fan actually told all their listeners the MAC season starts tonight on their every 20 minute update. It was mentioned right along with the Browns and the Cavs. Then their gambling ads talked about betting on Toledo tonight (I think). Amazing since that was more coverage of MAC basketball then I have ever heard on the station.

Wow. Two sentences every 20 minutes. I guess OSU's season must be over. 01-wingedeagle

Actually that already is as much Ohio St basketball gets. They are Browns/Cavs/Guardians oriented. Any college basketball is abnormal.
