  1. Great schedule to be able to get home for tip off. They are set for the last game on Thursday and Friday night. Also both Friday night games are live on CBS Sports Network. In the past the second game was either not shown or on tape delay.
  2. I know that. It was a joke in response to let the "chips" fall where they may.
  3. Central Michigan is done tomorrow afternoon. They have been eliminated and cannot go to Cleveland.
  4. Big article in The New York Tines today on Bates. May be behind a paywall. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/02/sports/ncaabasketball/emoni-bates-nba-basketball.html
  5. Four mid-week games. Homecoming October 14th.
  6. The women host Akron tonight. They need to go 2-0 in their last two at home to have a shot to go to Cleveland. If they win the two games they will probably be in a tie breaker situation. https://getsomemaction.com/sports/2023/2/24/BSK_0224232059.aspx For those of you in Buffalo and surroundings, get out to the game tonight. Listen to Coach Burke.
  7. For those trying to figure out tiebreakers, this is the link to the procedure from the MAC's website: https://getsomemaction.com/sports/2023/2/24/BSK_0224232059.aspx
  8. And the potential for more embarrassment. Also Syracuse does not have an open date until 2027. https://fbschedules.com/ncaa/syracuse/
  9. That was you, other than them alum part. After the game you posted that your prior position on beer sales at UB football games was wrong. You changed your mind and said that beer should not be sold at UB games, not because of the litter, but because the students were too drunk that night.
  10. Oat's latest statement, from al.com: https://www.al.com/alabamabasketball/2023/02/nate-oats-i-made-unfortunate-remarks-about-brandon-millers-involvement-in-darius-miles-case.html
  11. UB ran at a $654,690.00 profit for 2021-2020 academic year, based upon filings with the NCAA. https://buffalonews.com/sports/college/what-ubs-financial-statement-shows-about-the-state-of-its-athletic-programs/article_e437233e-ae30-11ed-bfcd-071730d1eac3.html
  12. The wi-fi issue is not confined to Alumni Arena. It is an issue on both the Main Street and Amherst campuses.
  13. I was only able to catch about the last 4:00 of the game yesterday. From what I saw down the stretch, this could not be less true. They wiped out a late lead to go up by one and then had two shots at the buzzer to hit a game winner. teams that have quit would have packed it in when they down 7 with about 4:00 left. They did not pack anything in.
  14. Looks like they are among a group of players for whom the 2020 season did not count as a year played because of COVID. There will be a number of graduate students next year playing for a fifth or sometimes a sixth season.
  15. Much to the chagrin of a former UB women's basketball player/SA President. I am going to compare Coach Burke to situation that Geno Auriemma is in right now. The UConn game yesterday against South Carolina looked very much like the UB game on Saturday. Both UB and UConn have very short benches and it was obvious that UConn was exhausted with their limited bench. South Carolina basically put them away late in the third quarter and early in the fourth, only to have UConn make a run at them that ended up short, making the game look closer than it really was. So I am not sure you want to fire a first year coach who is doing exactly what one of the greatest coaches in history has to do this season. Next season UConn will have Paige Bueckers back and UB will have Coach Burke's first real recruiting class. People say the current generation wants instant gratification. They have nothing on you.
  16. I guess Danny White is off your list for Thanksgiving dinner this year.
  17. He was born in Wisconsin and went to college in Wisconsin. That is why he wanted to play Wisconsin - Milwaukee in the tournament in Belfast.
  18. Could not have said it any better.
  19. Another way to get extra rest for players is to take them out if you get a stoppage shortly before a media timeout. It gives the time until the media timeout plus the media timeout to rest.
  20. Did you know what teams from the West we are going to play last Monday?
  21. It is the same order as last year. It would be easy just to flip sites, but I do not think the MAC would do that. Especially sending a school to Akron and Kent State in back to back weeks.
