No fire in the Convo, work on the steam tunnels and a person stuck in the Convo elevator.

I guess we should pay for the visiting team's added expenses since we cancelled the game so late.

No. This was something beyond our control. Maybe AEP or whoever damaged the pole should pay.

ESPN's website has the game on ESPN3. That's available online using your TV provider account login. It might also be available through ESPN+ login.

Big game to either stay around the middle of the pack in the MAC or get pushed lower down into the basements.

Surprised to see us 4.5 favorites.

Anyone else have buffering issues with ESPN3?

So strange because ESPN+ works just fine for the women's game but the men's game it buffers like every few minutes.

Mason McMurray. What am I missing here? I root like hell for him, but not understanding Boals even giving the few minutes that he’s giving him. I get that he makes the occasional three ball, but that’s about it. I am sure he’s a great teammate, but there hasn’t been much improvement since he got to Athens. He’s just not a D1 player. I can’t be the only one thinking this.

4-17 from 3 so far. Luckily, Wilson and McDay have been efficient. Wilson is 7-7.

Preston has had a rough game. But nice job getting to the line here.

Need to finish strong. Balls is hitting just enough 3s to stay in this.

The announcer claims that the Bobcats are using an unusual new defense. I don’t know if that is the case or not but the energy is really impressive and I hope heralds the prospect of more to come in the future.

Although Pretson may get a triple double, so I might have to amend my previous statement.

Ball State shot 46% from three. A lot of three point shooting from game to game is just dumb luck but everyone is shooting that against Ohio. We have to be giving up too many open shots.

BSU ran a lot of screens at the top of the key and foul line to get a guy open. They had probably five or six open looks like that and hit about four of them. I haven't seen anybody else do that. It was mostly when Ohio was playing zone.

Generally we're slow to guard people at the perimeter. Sometimes it's because our guys lose their man when the other team rotates through their offense but mostly is just slow reactions.

And NIU had control of who gets the virus?
