RE: UT-OU
BG's big dude had a poster dunk last night vs. EMU. I really hope we don't lose to them at home. Coach K wants a sell out but we won't be close.

Believe we can win and we can. We have three of the better players in the league. I think it's wide open still.

RE: UT-OU
Great hustle and energy by the Rockets last night! Marreon was awesome and OU couldn’t stop Luke inside in the second half. It was great to see Dylan step up his game also!

I'd guess 5,000-5,500. BG may bring a decent crowd since they are winning a lot of games.

They brought almost no one to the women’s game given their usual crowd. I suspect the men will be different. They had about 2K at home for EMU.

RE: UT-OU
Keys to last night's win include:

*Played intense with lots of energy for 40 minutes which you need to have to overcome periods of poor play that every team goes through during a course of a game.
*Withstood a couple of runs in both the first and second half and then answered back with runs of their own! Stayed together!
*M Jackson controlled the temple for the offense with his outside shooting and floor game.
*The Rockets "fed the beast" (L Knapke) in the post in the second half and Ohio U did not have any answers for it.

*Willie controlled the glass which seems like an every game occurrence and a major reason why we do not give up a lot of second chance points.
*Got excellent performances from D Alderson and K Saunders which made up for S. Littleson not playing much do to his shoulder injury.

Combine the keys above on a consistent basis with getting Littleson back healthy and you have a formula for Toledo to be able to contend for a MAC Tournament Championship. However, they cannot afford any long term injuries with their lack of depth!

RE: UT-OU
Does anyone know why Donavan Moore was not redshirted? It seems like he is wasting a year since he only plays at "garbage" time. The way Coach K is out recruiting, it seems that he expects one guy to leave the program. Is that guy Moore?

That’s my thought. TJ is the other non-RS option and he’s become a valuable blue collar kind of guy.

Hoped he had turned the corner at Akron. Alas, no.

Spencer is battling a shoulder injury that he sustained late in the Akron game, so it is not fair to judge him on his performance in this game.

The Rockets will need Littleson's defense and intensity vs the bugs but it might make sense to let him rest til that shoulder is 100% well. I watched a replay of the OU game and his right arm was pretty much just hanging at his side. Alderson, Saunders and Maranka are improving with more playing time as the season progresses and they will be criucial in the MAC tourney.

RE: UT-OU
Can’t figure the dramatic inconsistencies of the Rockets? Where was this play against BSU and CMU? If we had this effort and result at home TK would have his sellout. The puzzle of getting us back to the top of the MAC remains. BG and Kent are must wins IMHO.

RE: UT-OU
There are approximately 700 tickets left for the BG game on Saturday night. They just might get that sellout!

RE: UT-OU
I got my ticket for BGSU. I went to the BGSU - EMU game the other night in Bowling Green. No band, a handful of students, and maybe a half crowd. Not a ton of fanfare. Eastern had their chances. I think we have more depth and more talent than EMU or BGSU, but, of course, I'm biased. SEE YOU AT THE GAME. GO ROCKETS!!!
