UB92 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 While I have boycotted posting (mostly...) on the bball board until we have the "next coach in", I still read this board. I checked here and assumed we didn't have a game tonight. But apparently we do...in a few minutes. UB is a road favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBulls99 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Solid first half up 42-26. Need to close it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clodney Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 No idea how this team can crush lower level teams and then get equally crushed by top teams. NIU beat Kent but you wouldn’t know it tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chet Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 So far, so good. First half couldn't have been much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squire17 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Bulls look good…9 assists, 4 TOs, 19 boards, sharing the ball, and hitting their shots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird96 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 With a big lead like this, I’d rather see the Bulls run the clock and work on their half court offense than put shots up with 20+ seconds on the shot clock. So far they’re still hitting them so I guess I’m nitpicking here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather have Kent. I dont think they have a shot against Akron/Toledo Maybe whoever we play can add a direction to their name. Directional schools seem to be the only ones we can beat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird96 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 (edited) With the Bulls win and Ohio losing tonight UB sits 1 game out of the 5 seed now. Not very likely that Ohio will lose at home vs BGSU this weekend, but if they choke and UB beats MOH, I wonder who the tiebreakers would favor since we split the season series with the Bobcats.

I believe since Ohio beat Akron once they would end up with the tiebreaker (best record vs top teams). Not 100% sure on that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 100% sure on that though. Yeah, with our track record vs the top teams I wouldn’t doubt that Ohio would win the tiebreaker. Probably a moot point since I don’t see BG beating them. But stranger things have happened in the MAC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C1ubP1fanaticM7 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I think Kent beats Akron and Ball St. beats Toledo at home, giving Kent the 1 seed. So I think we’ll either be playing Akron, Toledo, or Ball St. Most likely Akron, who has our number. I think Akron beats Kent in the Championship.

DocCas86 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 1 hour ago, Erie County said: Ohio has the tiebreaker over UB and NIU and in a three way tiebreaker as well. Ball state vs Ohio is locked in as the 4-5 game If Toledo loses in a meaningless games for Ball State and Akron and UB loses, they'd matchup in the 2-7 Wouldn't Akron have to win to be the 2 seed? Also, why so negative and only present scenario where the Bulls lose. I think the more likely scenario is Akron loses, UB wins and they play as 3-6 seeds. Either way the seed does not matter much, as UB would likely have to get through Akron, Kent and Toledo in some order. I will be pulling for them regardless of who they play.

Not saying I feel great about the prospect of having to face the Zips yet again, but in my optimistic mind I have to have some kind of hope that the Bulls could get hot at the right time and finally take a Top 3 MAC team down. It would take a team effort, and most certainly would require Curtis to get back to playing like we’re used to seeing and live up to his cool nickname 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no, Kent needs to win (akron loses) in order to push Kent to #1, Toledo #2 Sorry misunderstood. Thank you for clarification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
