2:30 central on espn3

Eagles/Hurons are 3-14 with a NET of 329 while our Huskies are 5-11 and 299.

As mentioned in another thread 6'10" Emoni Bates leads the team with 20 PPG, .424FG% AND 44-127 .346 from the 3pt line and 5.9 rebs per game. Tyson Acuff 12.5ppg and Noah Farrakhan 12.1 are their other top scorers.

Common opponents CMU: EMU beat by 6 at home as did Huskies by 19. Akron: EMU lost by 37 @ Akron as did Huskies by 25.

Coached by the veteran Stan Heath, who is in second stint at EMU who also coached at Arkansas and South Florida.

If we can slow down Bates we have a chance at another MAC road win.

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

Is there a delay to the start of the mens basketball game?

Game is on 792 Directv.

Womens game went to overtime just about to start on espn3

The NIU women’s game prior to the men’s went into overtime ( they are both at EMU). NIU now falls to 2-4 in MAC play. Koker and Davis combine for 40+ of our total points. Just think what that program is gonna be with they graduate.

The women’s program is once again middle of the road mediocre. Some good wins and some horrible losses. Can’t seem to take the next step. They will once again end up somewhere in the middle. There are some MAC teams with phenomenal records.

Having said this, the men’s team can only dream about gaining such mediocrity. It gets more and more difficult being a Huskie fan.

Actually right now the mens team is doing better in conference than the womens team. Boy EMU doesn’t play tough defense anymore!

Huskies are fun to watch today. Looking forward to seeing them live at the Convo.

Had to sync Bakers call for the game since ESPN Eastern announcers have lost interest in the game

Keshawn who?

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

Yeah, certainly the first half was fun, but, EMU’s complete lack of defense is absolutely embarrassing. They look like a complete mess. I haven’t seen a team with worse body language in a long time. Hopefully, they stay as disinterested for the second half.

We have 28 points in the paint…….IN A HALF.

Take it easy Pantone so far EMU is the worst team in the MAC. Huskies definitely could use Keyshawn and Amos and Russell

A very fun game to watch. The Huskies looked like a really good team today. The announcers were respectful of and had good things to say about the Huskies.

Huskies shot the lights out great win coach and team. Attendance was said to be there biggest crowd for a MAC game in their arena 4000 plus[/i]

Hopefully Tuesday night against top ranked and MAC undefeated Kent State we can get the pep band and several cheerleaders and silverettes to show up along with 1000 plus fans

Let's give some credit to the guys in the middle , Iburguan and Crump. 21 total pts,
12 rebs, 1 blk, 3 asst, and one steal. They shut down EMU's big man.

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

EMU big man is really a tall guard he’s too skinny to play down low.

We have a big man? Do tell.

People calling Bates a big man. He’s a smallish skinny looking listed at 6’10 guard. He is a long way from being a nba player. EMU79, was there really 4719 in attendance? I know EMU football games have been known to have a very inflated attendance number usually. That’s basically the average attendance if you get a average of all college basketball games.. Great job if it’s a true number

Worst announcers ever. I suggested to my group to turn the volume off and I'll announce the game! They didn't take me up on my suggestion so we continued to watch the game with the background blather noise; and I announced the game anyway (well at least announced who made the NIU baskets and that NIU actually made baskets).
Announcers repeatedly said EMU was playing much better in the 2nd half. Better as in not being down by 38 points? EMU lost the 2nd half too, after being down 19 at the half!
