It seems like Stroh Center has been a huge house of horrors for us for a long time, haven't won there since 2016-17 season. Great time for us to right the ship and start winning some away games.

Despite losing there consistently, I'm planning to attend this one. Last time there, I watched a pretty bad BG team destroy a quite good Ohio team.

I don't have high hopes for the game but I know my wife likes the Bulgarian restaurant in town so I'm pretending the trip will be worth it.

Falcons really socked it to EMU. Lots of offense.

Will OUr defense have to slow them down or were the Falcons hitting shots way beyond their normal clip?

All you Cats making the trip have fun and cheer on the Green and White to MAC win number 1 please.

The Falcons must have been well rested. They had played Southern Indiana, Queens, Fairmont, Ohio Dominican... is there not a limit on how many D-2 and/or NAIA teams that can be scheduled?

Isn't Queens the team that hung the only loss on Marshall for a while?

Say us fans of a team that scheduled UC-Clermont! They are not good enough to even be in the NAIA. They are in the small college division of something called the United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA). Maybe next time we can schedule a USCAA large college division team! ;-)

For the love of God, please limit Sam Towns. That's all I need from this game.

You've probably just named the leading scorer in the game! ;-)

I knew we played bad up there, but I didn't realize how absolutely putrid our record is. We've only won up there three times since 2007-08.

Truly makes no sense. It's not like that program has been the beast of the MAC during this time with a crazy student fan section and crowd.

Fact: Ohio never wins at Bowling Green (football/men's basketball) when SBH is in attendance.
Fact: SBH will be in the Stroh Center later today.
Conclusion: Ohio will lose to a poor BG team today.

Hope we pull this out, might be time to tighten the rotation a bit and sub less frequently.

Can someone explain to me what Boals is doing with AJ Brown’s minutes? He scores on first two possessions and sits him for next 7 minutes? This after sitting him for last 6 minutes against Buffalo. Seriously..WTF???

And the Whiz is a disaster.

About halfway through the first half. First game I’ve seen. A bunch of individuals not much team play. Way too much dribbling and one on one.

I've been saying this for weeks . . . we need a team leader, and floor general.

PLAY. FREAKING. DEFENSE.

My lord, our defense and rebounding are legit terrible.

Combining FG and FT, BG is 20 for 32 shooting the ball that half.

And no it's not because they're making ridiculous and tough contested shots. Our defense is THAT bad.

While I have a little more hope than you do on Witz, I agree completely on AJB. Unless he's limited physically by his injury in some non-obvious way, he should be a 40-minute man, if that's still allowed in the rules! ;-)

I don't care if AJB can score 30 points a game.

Call me when he learns to play defense.

VERY unimpressed.

To be fair - he's been great on offense and you see the raw potential. Would have preferred he didn't hoist a couple of those 3s but he's still a freshman. But the game is about more than points in the box score.

PLAY.
DEFENSE.
