Tonight's line will be enticing to the doomsday Bobcats here. Ohio -10 on the road.

Heard an ad on sports radio today. They were hyping the pick of the day. My ears perked up because they we talking NIU/OU game tonight. Although NIU is near the bottom of the conference they have covered the spread the last 7 games.

I am warming up with Kant/Buffalo. Man they both look strong but Kant is scary good right now. It is all about who is hot. We are not. Sure hope it turns our way starting tonight.

Last time Kant won 11 straight they went to Elite 8.

[QUOTE=Andrew Ruck] NIU is a much peskier team than BG in my opinion. Can you imagine if we finish a 23-9 season with 4 straight losses? Yikes.
Hush . . . don't talk like that. Don't even think about such scenarios. Don't rain on my parade. All is lollypops and roses as I sit here drinking my green Kool-Aid and contemplating a CBI championship.


[/Tell her you care each time you speak
Make it her birthday each day of the week
Bring her nice things, sugar and spice things
Roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses
One day she'll smile, next day she'll cry
Minute to minute you'll never know why
Coax her, pet her, better yet, get her
Roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses
We try acting grown up but as a rule
We're all little children fresh from school
So carry her books that's how it starts
Fourteen or forty they're kids in their hearts
Keep them handy, flowers and candy
Roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses

You're doing this "loosing" thing intentionally, right?
Hey let's all loosen up on the loosing thing. That behavior is for loosers.

Ehem.
I just walked on by when I saw that. Surprised to see it bothers someone else enough to bring it up. Kudos. Loosing is one of those things I detest. Grammatically and philosophically. I am convinced it is not intentional as often as I see it happen.

It's incredible. I watch a lot of mid-major hoops on ESPN+. It is only Ohio games that ever have broadcast issues. It's maddening.

Almost as bad as the performance on the court. . . which is almost as bad as the court design itself.

What has happened to our Ohio Bobcats? I'm still confident they'll win tonight but they have completely fallen apart. They've gone from taking care of lesser opponents to struggling against Bowling Green and NIU. I know life isn't easy on the road in the MAC but something is really off with this squad. Nothing comes easy on offense.

Do we just not want to play anymore basketball this season? This continues to be embarrassing. What is going on Coach Boals?

Teams have figured out how to bottle up Sears.
We have played down to our competition all year.
May this will be another 2nd half turn around.

Is a 21 point half our lowest for a half?

My 8th grade middle school boys team averaged more in a 12 minute half. Zero imagination from our bench, zero energy, looks like a team ready for the season to end.

If it makes any difference the SEMO-Murray game on ESPN-U had the same crappy picture freeze and flashing issues for a while. Sometimes at the same time.

I'm really trying not to overreact either. I'm still not counting them out in Cleveland even though the odds don't look good at the moment but I need to see more inspired play.

Sears hasn't looked the same since teams started bottling him up but that's when BVP and Carter should be able to step up. BVP is hit or miss which is frustrating to watch. I really don't understand how Carter doesn't step up more. I know he's been dealing with the cramp issues but OU needs him to elevate his game if they're gonna make a run in Cleveland.

Yep. I see a guard who has had his one trick taken away and is frustrated because he has nothing else. I see a team of guys who can't shoot to save their lives and they're frustrated the shots aren't falling. I see a coach who doesn't feel he has any other options to try and is frustrated watching it play out.

Adds up to a tired and frustrated team who appears will welcome the season coming to an end in a couple days so they can turn the page and move on.

How does Northern Illinois not improve their broadcast quality during the half? Absolutely brutal!

Same reason Ohio doesn’t improve theirs at half.
