He looks so disheveled. Not to mention a strong wind might break bones

The March assassin is back!! Talk about catching heat at the right time!! 4 titles in 5 years!!! LET'S GO BULLS!!!

Another double double for her against Ohio. She owns that team, haha. Can't wait to see how she does in the tourney

Bulls are dancing! Such an amazing finish

This game is amazing! Hanna Hall! 5ft of fury!! She's been stroking it all game! If they keep this up, they'll be hoisting the hardware

 Over their last seven games the Bulls have had three games in which they shot under 20% from 3. Please get tough in the paint and limit the bombs away mentality tonight.

I mean, I'm kind of with you, but we shouldn't give up on attempting the 3s because when we are hitting them, we're kind of unstoppable.

We can be tough in the paint AND shoot the 3s. I feel confident in the guys to have the understand that when the 3s aren't falling, it's time to hit the paint.

Man, 3 seeds have it bad. 25% into the elite 8 is rough.

I thought we had a decent shot at a5, but I feel like a 6 is better. If we're in the East, that would mean Purdue in the second round and I'm okay with that

This awaits, for those so inclined. 

Man, I wish I wasn't so damn far away. I'd definitely be there.

One of these days I'll come back for a MAC championship

Figured I'd throw this one up. Going to be another long day tomorrow.

Hope Cierra takes coach G's word of encouragement to heart. 

 

Coach G is the best. I love that sound bite. It really shows the respect these teams have for each other

So who do we want NIU or BGSU?

NIU... I want to see us avenge that pitiful showing earlier in the year.

Awesome win. This team is trying to kill me!

Even though, yes, we didn't have the best game, I think it was more that CMU showed up to play. They played an amazing game. So glad that down the stretch Mr. Clutch, aka CJ buckets, came through like he has all year.

Can't wait for the final tomorrow!!

Our ladies played such an amazing game. They took everything that CMU could throw at them and kept coming back.

I think they're up for another deep run in the tourney this year.

YES!!!! Knock on someone else's door middling high majors!

I almost feel like this officiating staff was worse than the NIU game. even though we won, I do not want to win on the basis that half of the other team's players are out on fouls. the mack really needs to take a look at the three officials from this game and determine if they should even be refereeing.

Outside of that, awesome win. Harris was Harris, Perkins dominated the paint, and Caruthers was a beast. If they play this good through the rest of their games, this could be a really hard out for those top seeds

Game day! Can it just be 9AM already!! (I'm in the PST)

This game must have been very distracting!!  I had to read your post several times to figure it out...

It was incredibly distracting, haha.

What I meant was, Saint Marys put together an amazing game and shows how to effectively dismantle a #1 seed. The biggest thing they did was only give Gonzaga 1 shot on the offensive end each time up the floor. Hunter was a machine down low and it is so important that Perkins asserts his will down low.

Also, as much as our boys take shots early in the shot clock, if we find ourselves against a 1, we need to make sure to eat up some of that clock on the offense. We can't always run and gun because I feel like that would not be the best thing on every offensive possession against a UNC or Virginia.

I don't want to detail the Bulls board right now, but I'd anyone watching SMU vs Gonzaga. I hope Nate is recording this in case we face them

Alright guts enough this damn negativism!!! Bullieve! And to show you that I am not blowing smoke I am told by someone who listened to Nate’s interview earlier this afternoon with Jim Rome that Nate said he wants to make UB like Gonzaga. It also sounded like he had no plans to go anywhere. I don’t have the time now but maybe someone does to locate the interview online and post it here. 

Nate has said in almost every interview I've watched that he has no plan of leaving. I fully bullieve he is going to stay and become our Mark Few.

Go Bulls!

It looks like sling is either blocking or frozen because it says senior night, but won't show it to me...

Such bull

Also, I know Segu will be good, but damn, he needs to stop trying those dives with a kick under the basketball. I don't think I've seen one of those go well for us. He was killing us tonight.

Idk if that game was apathy or what, but they played a very uninspired game. I'm really hoping it was just low effort because they knew they could win.

Every conference change I have ever read on this board is either delusional, dumb, far fetched or a combination of all 3.  So I want in.

 

the conference with no name

UCONN, UB and UMASS joins the BE.  All three enter a scheduling agreement for football.  Army joins said scheduling agreement for football for a home basketball game every year.  We got 4 football games.  Temple sees this happen and wants in.  We have five games.  Now basketball schools can play basketball in a BB forward conference and football independence is not so scary (plus olympics for all parties are now still local ish).   And the BE already gets paid better than the American without football anyway.  (And their new TV deal minus UCONN and now maybe Temple is now crap). Who knows? Maybe Memphis wants in?  We sell our own football rights to the local channels (aka the locals actually get to see the product! Local businesses get to advertise to a population they may actually see), side deals here and there and there is world peace.  I feel like I didn’t sell that last part enough.

Nice fan fiction, lol

I mean, a 2 spot jump is pretty good, but I am still confused how Nevada still ended up above us. They just proved that against quad 1 teams, they can't win.

Highly unlikely the Big Ten would entertain adding a program as established as UB, and the gulf in funding would be massive.  Big East is a horrible fit for UB.  The Big East is a basketball conference of private schools.  UB is a major 30,000 student public.  UB has also committed to staying FBS in football which the Big East is not.  There is no fit there.

I think it's best to stick with the MAC and help grow the conference into a power conference. It's possible, just difficult

Lol. You are all worried about Ohio? We are going to destroy them. We aren't the underdog no more. Let them get excited.

I am on the hating Ohio train too. They are the worst. Which will make this game more fun to watch them get destroyed

I am all for being optimistic, but we've shown, ala Northern Illinois that we can get really lazy and let other teams push us around. We just need to be sharp
