shooting percentage Toledo 45.7% and Huskies 49.3%
3 pt percentage Toledo 37.5% 206 of 550 and Huskies 37.3% 149-400

Navigato from Geneva, Il and 6'8" shoots 47%, 59 for 129, from the 3pt line will be hard to stop. Their center, Knapke, at 6'11" averages in double figures and will be hard to stop. Huskies need to get the shooting percentage back over 50% and defend the threes as they have lately.

Big game and I hope we get a good turnout.


GO HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Will there be a game Saturday? It’s supposed to rain all day. We apparently still have a leaky roof from over a year ago.

It will be very light rain or drizzle. While temps will easily get above freezing , hoping cold pavements temps dont cause any problems.

What do you mean by cold pavement temps? Hopefully don’t cause any problems

Just with temperatures getting above freezing, we have been through such a cold spell that the temperature of roads and paved surfaces may lag in the warm up and remain at freezing for a bit of time. I experienced something like that with the last storm where the temperature was 36 outside but the roads were still very icy. Precip should be light but a little concerned some drizzle could cause issues. Hopefully this wont be an issue. I do not care what the weather is like though, I am not missing this game! I do not care if I end up in a ditch, I missed Buffalo because of the ice storm so I am not going to let drizzle stop me haha. Hopefully roads will just be wet

You are a dedicated fan! Now what would you do or think if you come for the game and there’s a issue with the roof leaking on the court? I’m only half serious but since I’ve been to two games where it was raining and this became a problem I’m a little concerned for Saturday. By the way Saturday’s crowd looks to be a good one. There will be a student section at the game.

There wont be enough rain Saturday for that to be an issue, but can the leaking roof occur again If snow melts on the roof? I'm not as dedicated as some that went to the Buffalo game. I just dont want to be a crappy fan 2 games in a row

I am predicting a Huskie win:

NIU 77
Toledo 76

I dont even know what Star Wars day means and I'm not a Star wars fan but I was hoping this promotion would draw more fans tomorrow. The text of the promotion has been removed from the website. Did they cancel this

Star Wars Day is March 2nd not tomorrow

Navigato was the one that got away from Monty...

Ah ok I see they recently moved it last week. Originally was scheduled for Toledo game

BGSU beats Buffalo. BGSU is the current MAC 1 seed. Buffalo may fall out of top 25

One seed for the MAC again come March Madness.

Buffalo up 8 at half.

If Buffalo goes into the MAC tourney in the top 25 they are a lock for March Madness

Buffalo can lose 2 more games imo. One more regular season and MAC tourney game. Might have a shot losing 3 more, 0 shot with 4 more losses

Flying now home to Chicago today and extremely bummed to miss this game live. This is one of those “over the hump” games that we have not been able to win for a long time. This would be an very satisfying game to get a W. Difference between 6-3 or 5-4 in MAC is huge. I will be getting home just in time to watch it on TV. I hope this crowd will be huge and bring today. For those going have a great time.

Go Huskies!

Should be biggest crowd in a long time. Very limited seating. I couldn’t get 4 together in the lower bowl....and I’m cool with that
