RE: 2022-23 WBB Opponent Scores/News/Discussion Thread
Ball St 68 Pitt 66 OT
- Although Pitt is not predicted to be one of the better teams in the ACC, it's always a good win over a P6 team. BSU was up by 10 going into Q4, and similar to the UT-UM game, Pitt came back and even led near the end. BSU was able to hold on in OT. Big stat difference was Pitt shooting 1-15 from three. Game was on ACC Network, and the arena looked essentially empty - official attendance was 523 which seemed 300-400 too many to my eye.
BGSU 82 ETSU 64
- ETSU was 8-2 coming in. Hempfling seems to be near the end of the bench now, which is strange. BG shot great from three again, and when they do that they can be scary good.
Georgia Tech 71 CMU 45
- What more to say about CMU?
NKU 75 Miami 66
- Miami was up by 9 at the half, but couldn't hang on. Three players, Scott, Wolf & Cluse, with 55 of Miami's 66 points. NKU lost to Kent, BG and Akron earlier.
Cleveland St 76 Akron 58
- CSU is now 9-1 with their only loss to Iowa St. Deep into the 2nd half, Akron had only made like 2-3 2-point shots, almost all of their points on threes, and some FTs. Ended up with 11 made 3s, 9 FTs and 8 2s.
Kent 105 DIII Hiram 33
- And it looks like Thall didn't even play. Again, why schedule a game like this? And guess what, they have another one like this coming up against Otterbein.
Duke 70 FGCU 48
- FGCU probably the best mid-major in the country the last several seasons, so this is another good win for Duke on the road. Like UofToledoFans said, Duke looks better than people are giving them credit for, although they haven't played some of the good ACC teams yet like NC State, VaTech and Notre Dame. They were 11 in NET rankings coming into today tho.
Penn St 69 West Virginia 57
- WVU beat CMU by 30+, so is this a good win for PSU or just shows where CMU sits.
UT Arlington 71 NAIA Texas-A&M Texarkana 67
- Yikes. UTA actually trailed a significant part of this game according to the live stats. They were apparently missing two of their best players (Washington and White) but still. Committed 26 turnovers. One of their other players scored 30.
Tennessee 96 Wright St 57
- This actually was a game at the half, with WSU only trailing by 11, but that didn't last long in the 2nd half. WSU only had 15 total rebounds in the game. Tenn had 45. Not sure where WSU is going to get a win this year. Detroit Mercy, maybe?
