Sweeping Fiami is always the right thing to do.

Since they swept Ohio in the 2010-2011 season, Fiami is 3-21 against the Bobcats, including the current seven-game losing streak. Keep the momentum going and keep that once-proud program in the crapper.

All of this.

Muck Fiami.

This game will be tighter than we want. But it's still Fiami. Cats by 4.

66% chance at another birdie.

That chubby post player for Fiami is really coming on recently.

He's averaging 20ppg in the last five games. Can't have DW in foul trouble.

I went to a Cleveland State game last year and he hardly played. Barely registered all season in the stat log for them. He's been impressive this year in an amazing turnaround.

Interesting what actual coaching will do. Recruit them and then develop them.

Maybe a good coach, but maybe not the best coach for him.

Fiami has been playing better of late, and I'd bank on them being motivated for this one. I'd expect a dogfight.

after seeing Coach Boal's excitement about the victory in Athens, was great! Many younger folk don't understand this rivalry. It has been Akron/Kent as of late. However the rivalry was awesome in the 90's. I am glad he can hype the team for this one! Bleed Green! for those that bet.. take Boals in this one..:)
I can't think of the name of that linky center that gave us crap during Boals/Trent timeline. Muck!

Pretty tight results before the 23-6 run--what rivalries are made of.

Go Bobcats; bring home another road victory!

We are a 6 point favorite. We are on the road and this is the second tightest spread among the six MAC games this weekend. NIU, who struggled non-conference and has players injured, is only a 3 point favorite at CMU. The other four games look like mismatches. Suddenly gone are the high parity days where the difference between first and last wasn't great. Unfortunately, the MAC has had several very bad teams in it the last couple of years.

I would take the two injured CMU players v. the two injured NIU players in a 2-on-2 game to 21. Miller (18.5 ppg) and Zarzuela (16.3) v. Williams (17.9) and Coit (15.9). Assuming they'll all healthy, that is. That's a lot of firepower those two teams are missing.

My concern in this game is 1) Rivalry time, 2) Away game, & 3) End of a long season and before conference tournament.

MIRAMBEAUX. That boy is about 50 pounds past chubby LOL but I can absolutely see him going for 30-15 today. DW gonna have his hands full. I would honestly tell Wiz to face guard him. Do nothing else. Stand in front of him. Hands up. Don't think hes strong enough or skilled enough though.

Hopefully they come out hot and fast.

OU's race for 20 wins is hopefully motivation enough.
