We win 1 game and one of them lose a game and we would be in. If both teams Central Michigan and Buffalo win 2 we are out.

Scenario 1
We win vs Ohio and Central Michigan loses 1 game we win tie breaker having beaten them

Scenario 2
We win Ohio and Buffalo loses 1 game (assuming the loss is Akron ...

If we tie with Central Michigan, don't we own the tie-breaker since we beat them head/head? I've read on X that both Buffalo and Central Michigan have to lose both their remaining games and we need to beat Ohio to get in - I thought we just needed to tie Central Mich and we'd be in?

Probably a ...

It should be zero. That would send a message to Bambi.


not fair to the players!

Has anyone looked around at these games and seen the average age of the fans that go? I'm in my early 50's and I feel like I'm one of the youngest - most of these fans were in their 50's when we went to the Final ...

Probably a moot ...

I just don't get why we cannot put together 40 minutes just once. Every game we build a big lead and look very good doing it, then boom, we hit a wall and we can't recover. You'd think just once the other team would have an off night and we'd cruise to a W - nope!

I was told by somebody who has good contacts that they yanked the 1 scholarship that Baseball used to have. Also, they (Bamford??) are looking at the travel costs for baseball and we may be seeing a team that is "not for long".


is this really true? what would the point be to have just 1? I know ...

Suppose we go 1-1 in our last 2 and lock up the 8 seed. We play Miami in the 1st round and get beat by 10-15 points. Seems like a pretty likely scenario. Frank gets fired. His son decides to go somewhere else. I would assume Frank wants to watch his son play. I've personally had 2 children play ...

Lets face it, Carbuccia is Frank pet. Praises him every game despite the fact he cannot shoot or play defense. Placide was miraculous - got us into overtime and then made 2 3's (one and old fashioned one and then a deep 3 from corner) to put us up one.The fact that Frank is calling him out for ...

I'm probably wrong, as it seems like he actually took some time to research ...

If we win this one are we guaranteed a spot in the tournament.?


no, not guaranteed but it puts us in a great spot. Central Michigan is only 1 game behind us, but we hold the tie-breaker - so essentially 2 behind. C. Michigan is at Kent tonight then at Buffalo before coming home to play Akron ...

How cool would it be if the team goes on a tear & gets hot for the tournament? This is a good group of guys and I'd love to see them go out on a winning note


That would be cool. There is a 0% chance that happens.


Would not say 0% chance - I have actually thought the same thing - you see ...

Only a 4.5 point favorite - I'd be shocked if we did not win this one by double digits.

Not sure if Brown, Banks, Placide or Leo will be honored. I don't remember Cohen getting honored 2 years ago, same with Rivera and Malek last year.

I did read on X that Banks father is coming to the game so that might be an indication they will be honoring those guys too.

couple things - first regarding the t-shirt giveaway - as I was walking in the concourse before the game, I saw a handful of older people with the t-shirts in their hand - I guess its possible a student gave up there's and gave it to them, but I have a feeling they just walked down and grabbed one ...
