Look at the positive, Ball State has a losing record.....therefore we have a chance.

GAMER, the online statistical analysis tool used by realtimerpi, has us beating Akron, EMU and Miami at home and nobody on the road (including losing to Ball) to go 3-15 in MAC and 8-21 overall.

FWIW.

That would certainly be the lowest point for "life on the road in the MAC" since maybe the Wilderness Campaign of General Hunter's time.

Indeed. We are the 12k baud modem of MAC basketball. So glad I didn't travel the 8 miles to Kent the other night.

I assume it must have been snowing for that 8 mile drive?


Based on the game I saw of Ball St vs WMU, they're on the way up, and probably gonna drop OUr guys by more than 10. Regardless, I'll be tuning in.

Has anyone noticed where there is a feed for this game? I looked at MAC Digital Network on the mac-sports.com website, and only Toledo is showing up for tomorrow.

Why pay, I can give you the recap now. We play 7 guys, virtually no defense under the basket, no organized offense that anyone can comprehend and a general lack of effort. We lose by 13.

FWIW, I've been to Brother's twice. Scotty's Brewhouse is just down the street. Brothers has a lot more seating and their beer selection is better than Scotty's. Scotty's food is better, though IMO.

I've signed up for the 24 hour pass for $7.95 at http://www.ballstatesports.com. I figure that this will cut out the middleman and will probably result in less buffering, freezing and choppiness, at least in the feed. No telling what will happen on the court. ;-)

As a Muncie resident I am a Scotty's fan. Last several times ohio has been here we have met there. Easier to get to Brothers with a group right now. I prefer to food at Scotties for sho. Thanks for the heads up. Been reading your stuff for years on bsufans.com. Glad you made it over here. Been sending Whit texts this year. He is on the right track. Happy that Ball St is getting back to becoming legit . Good for the conference as a whole. Just listening to stories today about CVC Classic back over in Irving. Could not for the life of me remember what year we had Miss. Valley State up here.

Not sure a whole lot of fans are going to make it over. Crowd may not be a problem in the restaurant.

I just discovered the same thing. I'd rather listen to it for free.

Looks like I'm just gonna watch UB/CMU online instead... Bummer. MAC feeds used to be free. Guess not anymore. All UB home games are on ESPN3.com (pretty sick setup, best in the MAC now for home games).

Nice web feed, albeit expensive for one game. Do we ever wear green anymore or are we trying to change our colors to black and white?
