UB85 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Keep celebrating tonight’s win. But time for me at least to look at the biggie tomorrow night. Did you know this will be UB’s fourth appearance in the last five MAC title games? Okay we all probably know that. But what can we draw or learn from those appearances? Did you know that Jayvon has played in two title games during that span? Perhaps. But the lesson he is 2-2. He’ll be 3-3 after tomorrow night. Take it to the bank! Let’s effing go!!! Go Bulls! PS I’ll be back tomorrow with my guru’s prediction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Brock, Fagan, Bivens, Graves, Williams and Segu all have rings. And we know they want more. The way Segu and Williams have grown in this tournament has been special. Credit to Graves for taking a step back and allowing that to happen. He could've big footed them and said I'm the senior but in taking a step back and becoming the 3rd or 4th option he increased his defense, rebounding and assist numbers. We will need one more team effort tomorrow. Ohio has a deep roster and talented pieces. And tomorrow we will get their best shot. Can't wait.

And as you point out he’s got the three ball as Ohio has a great sense of when to kick it out for the open 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) Ohio presents some mismatch issues for us. Who guards Preston? He’s 4-5 inches taller than Rondo. Who covers Vander Plas? He can play inside and out. Mballa has a tough matchup with Wilson. Tough matchups all around. Ohio was my biggest fear as there was a time it looked like they would be our first round matchup. Time to face that fear. If we continue to rebound and defend the perimeter we can get this done. Update: We open as a 2 point favorite Edited March 13, 2021 by DooleyBull06 Update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TML1000 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Ohio has even less bench than we do...basically a 5 on 5 matchup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It honestly felt a lot like the early session quarter finals do in a normal year. Seemed like there was about 2500ish people. They limited it to between 6 and 8 people per row, basically one pod of 2 on each aisle and a pod of 2 or 4 in the middle. They also only seated people in the even numbered rows. I didn’t see a ton of blue, but those that were made some pretty good noise at the end. I agree that the matchups will be tough both ways. So many intriguing matchups... Mballa vs Wilson, McDay vs Graves (the battle for St. V), VanderPlas vs Hardnett. I have a feeling the team that stays out of foul trouble will be dancing tonight. It should be a fun one. Hope some of you can make the trip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markchicago Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Great win against Akron. At times gut wrenching - as in any game so many missed shots. There is so many positive things to say to get our win tonight. Two big areas to improve in order for us to win: -please make foul shots - Mballa do not dribble the ball under the basket, just go up withe ball This will be a great game - go Bulls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocCas86 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 So as far as I am can figure - you get 10 reactions - saving them for tonight in hopes that there are a lot of likes I have to dish out! Maybe another hit song from Whitesell tonight - hoping a certain song from Queen? 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James477 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Sections m109 & m 110 we’re behind the team bench. Each section is sparse, difficult to predict where the UB fans will be, but most seemed to be at the bench end but behind the basket.
