Is it me or over the past decade whenever we've taken some licks in conference and need to feel good about ourselves again, we have a perfectly timed home game with Western Michigan waiting for us?

Western could give us a scare, but this is a W.

Eager to hear a Clayton update soon. If he doesn't play tomorrow, I doubt we see him for App State.

Has he even seen a “doctor” yet? That was the last we heard anything right?

9.5 point favorites. Random prediction this is the game Sheldon finds the outside shot.

Vegas knows how to make money, so who am I to question it. But 9.5 points against a team who beat Kent on the road, beat a team that beat us (EMU), and played Dayton close on the road seems like a lot given our injuries.

Vegas must be expecting Sheldon to hit some shots and play better defense.

People on this board were prepared to give up on the season and now our best player is back after missing only a few games. Take care of business tonight and get back on track!

Anybody else think our crowds looks sparse on television? They’re just aren’t many people on the bench side. Wondering if the other side is more crowded? Maybe the student should be moved to the other side?

Do we have a new transfer or walkon? Sitting on end of bench and in starting lineup line there is a guy with the white warmup hoodie but gray shorts.

Sheldon breakthrough great to see. Different team if he’s making 2+ three pointers a game.

Clayton return obviously huge.

Not sure Western wanted to be in Athens tonight.

Basketball an easy game when making shots!

Western ice cold from downtown tonight.

Pretty good job of keeping the Broncos off the offensive glass.

Searles must have felt like he was on vacation compared to the minutes he had been forced to play..

There's some posters that should eat crow after this performance. Ohio was going to dominate this game with or without Clayton. WMU is the 307th ranked KenPom team. Ohio is 172nd.

This isn't the Bobcats team we expected before the season but the sensationalized demise of this squad the last few weeks was greatly exaggerated by many. Glad to see them destroy a team that they should handle at home.

With Clayton back, this team is a MAC contender once again. They went toe-to-toe with Toledo and Miami without him. With him, the only team in the league I'm scared of is Akron.

The goal should be to be on the opposite seed line of the Zips in the MAC Tournament. It won't be easy but we're gonna have to aim for the 2/3 game assuming the Zips win the conference.

But I was told our football team and coach would have gone undefeated and Boals sucks.
