No Kevin Miller and I think Zarzuela is done for the year too. Despite that, they'd be in Cleveland if the tournament started today.

Not sure what is more impressive:

CMU without Kevin Miller, who was my MAC frosh of the year last year, vying for a top 8 MAC finish at 5-8. Miller, who averaged 13.1 ppg last year, has played in only 4 games this year and was averaging 18.5.

Or NIU sitting at 7-6 in the league and doing most of their damage, including a win v. Kent, without leading scorer Keyshawn Williams (17.9).

This feel like an important game to get if we're going to keep this good juju flowing.

ESPN 3 indicates a start time of noon. Am I incorrect?

I can. Many like to gamble away their hard earned money.

Is the stream not working for anybody else or is this a "me" problem?

I’m assuming no one else has been able to stream this game? Awful start based on the box score.

Ohio down 12-0, 0 for 7 from the field. Maybe be best that's there is no live stream.

Anyone try to call ESPN?

1-888-549-ESPN

I'd give them a call, but the rest home took away my cell phone:(

Russ just referenced the streaming difficulty.

Maybe CMU was bouncing their ESPN signals off the balloon that was shot down over Lake Huron?


We've tied it. Just knew CMU couldn't keep up that pace.

Two MAC games with same problem: Ohio at CMU and Ball St. at WMU.

How much longer is the contract between the MAC and ESPN in effect?

ESPN blows. Need to align with a real sports network. Like Bally’s.

For goodness sake man. I did all my crap this morning so I could be ready to watch the game. I even told my wife I'd meet her later on which is a hall pass for her to spend $$. This could have all been prevented. 😁
