Anyone know why UB and NIU don't have games scheduled this coming weekend?

I don't know the reason why, but the Buffalo at Northern Illinois game is scheduled for Tuesday, February 13 while everyone else is off that night.

BG with a great finish, holding Miami scoreless the last 4:01 and scoring the last 11 points, ending a long drought in Millett 78-73.

Hill led the way again with 23 while Co-POTW Agee had another monster game with a 15-12 double double.

If this team can learn to make a damned free throw, they might be a factor. They went 19-31 (61.3%).

Toledo may not have set a MAC record but are very close to one with 20 consecutive regular season wins. Over a calander year since the Rockets have lost in MAC play. The Lady Rockets are riding a similar stat and will be at a year after this week if they can (tall task).

Perhaps they can hang another banner.

LOL

I bet their fans would trade that winning streak for an appearance or two in the NCAA tournament in the last 44 years.

BG fans would trade almost anything for an appearance in the NCAA Tournament! We suffer along with our rival…

Added spreads for tonights games. A pair of road favorites.

Ohio blows out EMU 85-67 (led by as much as 38) to get back to .500 overall and in the MAC.

That felt pretty darn good to dominate a team like we did after all of the close losses we've had this year! Now, on to Akron!

Quirky MAC standings...

Bowling Green and Toledo, tied at 5-1
Central Michigan and Western Michigan, tied at 4-2
Ohio and Miami, tied at 3-3

Fun!

Darwishii Hunter did it again. Earlier this season Hunter hit a 40 footer on the run when we were down 2 vs Vermont for the win. Today he hit a 3 at the buzzer to tie Ball State and we won in OT. He is our new Jason Grunkemeyer, who hit like 5 or 6 such shots in his career.
