DooleyBull06 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I rather play a top seed as soon as possible. Fresh legs, maybe catch them nervous in an early round bc they are the “favorite” and more importantly perhaps it raises our energy and focus playing a top seed sooner. But none of it matters if we don’t raise our game. We have to be more consistent. I don’t see us losing if we have to play Monday at Alumni and I can see us getting to the semis. From then on it’s a crap shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the motto to March Madness for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 This tournament should be an Akron vs Bowling Green collision course. Should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t bet anything. Why? This is a total crapshoot. Does that mean the Bulls will win? No. Could they win? Yes. Who will win? We’ll find out in ten days.

But any team can beat any team on any night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocCas86 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Odds are someone other than Akron to win whole thing. Akron is favorite but I would say 1 in 3. So 2 out of 3 will be someone else. Bulls, if they get bye are probably 1 in 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee4three Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 This years tournament is wide open, we have as good a shot as anyone As a college basketball fan its going to be awesome I don't think akron wins it, in my opinion they are too dependant on Lcj. Think with a more physical game he will wear down with consecutive games I do think it is Bowling Greens to lose but wouldn't be surprised if a team like ball state or eastern Michigan pull it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why you need to be in the top 4 and not lose to EMU or Ohio. It’s the teams in those seeds I’m referring to. I just listed the finals for the entire path. Playing NIU/Akron is a much harder path to the finals than BSU/BG. Kent in the 6 has a better path. that was the point.

We beat 3 of the 4 of those teams (the top 4), and lost to northern by 1 in a game we should’ve had.

DooleyBull06 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) All we can do is play who is up next and survive and advance. We have 2 days to prep for a 3rd meeting with Miami. At home. No excuses we should win. Then we would have 2 days to refresh and prep for NIU. In Cleveland is where things get interesting. Let’s hope winning 6 of 8 to close the season has prepared us for what’s coming. MAC is wide open so why not us.

squire17 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Miami’s last AWAY win was on Nov 13 against Purdue Fort Wayne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocCas86 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) Got on to barttorvik.com to see odds for game against Miami, only to find out we were underdogs Then I looked closer, and noticed that Miami FL is our opponent! 😄. I am guessing there will be a correction soon! Checked massey.com -- that is more like it! Edited March 7, 2020 by DocCas86 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
