Espn says nothing, while the other MAC games are on espn3. Anyone know?

The schedule says ESPN3.

This is a really big game at this point in time. Hope the Rockets are able to come out treating it as such from the opening tip.

Another thread had the suggestion that UT consider a 2-3 zone for parts of a game...I’d like to see that if Miami gets open looks the way Ball State & BG did...but I don’t know if it’s something they practice much and I’m guessing they’ve had at best 1 day of practice since BG?

I'm seeing ESPN3 as well

Could be wrong, but I feel like a lot of the good 3 looks we are giving up are in transition after taking a bad shot on the other end. Bad offense leads to really bad defense.

NIU almost upset Akron for the second time this season, but came up short today. Amazing that Akron has a win against us and losses to last place teams NIU and EMU.

Not that it matters much, but the tie breaker is interesting after you split head to head. It’s record against the top teams. It doesn’t punish you for losing to garbage teams. Little backwards in my mind.

Northern Illinois / Akron game is now on. For what it is worth Micheal Reghi has to be the WORST, most OBNOXiUS broadcaster ever! If he says “fires” one more time I might vomit.

Well, when you get beat on transition you don’t exactly have time to set up in a 2-3 zone so there goes that idea...

Marreon carried off the floor near the end of the 1st half. Yeesh

Praying for good news.

Coach K said in the walk off interview he thought he would be ok

I'm sorry, but the play he got hurt on was dumb. There was nothing there.

Not sure where that came from after he was literally carried off the floor and then to the locker room.

Somehow Jackson is back out there. Not 100% though. Gonna need that 8 days off after this Friday’s game.

Playing much better this game.

Once again Marreon is close to a triple double. Needs an assist and four
boards.

5:50 left up 25. clear the bench... but we cant. because no one has experience....

brown from Bowsher btw is pretty solid.

bad call against rollins

How can you crowd someone they be surprised when you get a shoulder in the jaw ?

This wasn't necessary
