....but it is a victory!
Falcons down Eastern Illinois 52-48.
We definitely need to work on our free throws.

Good. I would have hated to review the Drano guzzling on this board if they had lost.

The game was for lack of a better word was atrocious. I can't believe we couldn't put that team away for at least a 15 pt win but oh well. I'm still not sure if we'll win more than 2 games in the Mac but whatever its all good.

I'll bet dollars to donuts there'll be plenty of Drano passed with a 4 point win over a 1-10 team, unfortunately.
But, from just looking over the numbers and listening to the end of the game, we shot horribly, but rebounded well (53 boards, with more Off. Rebs. than I remember seeing in awhile, I think) and held on down the stretch (which we haven't been particularly strong at of late).
A big one left before a HUGE MAC opener vs. OU!

Ha! We shot 29%. We beat the worst team in D1 at home by 4 points. Clements shot 1 or 7. Polk racked up 4 fouls in 9 minutes. Jakubowski was our second leading rebounder. Moten, our outside shooter, attempted 4 shots in 28 minutes. Our stud, Knight, didn't start, played 21 minutes.
Fellas, this is a bad basketball team we have here.
Glug glug glug glug glug. Buuurrrrpppp !!!!!

Definitely among the worst games I've ever seen. We played terrible. EIU is atrocious. Can anyone else ever remember a team scoring only 13 points in a half!?
I'll take the win, but my god was it ugly. Polk's fouls were so annoying because he was actually a presence getting boards and sent to the foul line when he was in.

No doubt, it was an ugly game. But it was a win, and I'll take it any time. A win is a win. Any time BG plays (in any sport) and scores more points than its opponents, it's a good win in my book....no matter how ugly the game. But one thing is for sure, while we broke the losing streak, we had better start playing better and in a hurry because after Duquesne, the MAC season is upon us. I'm not drinking Drano tonight, but I could be here starting in a week or so.

Just remember to wait 15 minutes, then flush with warm water. Repeat if necessary.

Good to see BG get the win. We are gonna struggle the whole year. Coach Orr has a free pass this year as he hasn't much to work with, unfortunately.
Build on it and try and make it two straight Wed night...
GO BG!

A wins a win is a win.
EIU is tech. 0-11. Their 1 win came against an NAIA school.
