On Saturday, January 27th, our Falcons (14-5, 5-2 MAC) head out on the road to take on the hated Toledo Rockets (12-7, 6-1 MAC). The game is set to begin at 2:00pm, and it will be available through ESPN+. Excellent news - it'll be done with plenty of time to spare before the Royal Rumble on Saturday night.
Cannot be said enough, this is a huge game for us. Beyond the rivalry aspect, the winner will sit in possession of 2nd place in the MAC. Hoping this team answers the call and puts on a show up north. Culture and togetherness shows through in big games, especially on the road, so I would love to see this one end in our favor because of those strengths in our program right now.
Beat Toledo.

Dropped off a care package for the UT ticket office while picking up my tickets for Saturday. Nothing like a good box of donuts to act as a trojan horse.

Game is underway.
Early thoughts:
This camera angle sucks, and Toledo wearing black when their main color is blue is absolutely stupid.

Another thought - this rim mic is ridiculously loud.
Pretty poor quality game production here.

First media timeout at 10:42. Lot of free flowing basketball so far without a whistle.
BG leads 19-11 early. Playing pretty well, but made some silly mistakes. Clean it up and keep pushing.

Sam Towns checks in. He’s back after 11 games.
Agee already has 2.

First Toledo foul called more than 14 minutes into the game.
Insanity.

The rim mic is insane for sure.
Offense went pretty cold after the hotvtk start letting UT get back closer.

It’s the only thing you hear! They basically have a sellout crowd and all you hear is the thud/clang of the rim. Lol. Ridiculously bad job on the production here.

Right after they missed two calls leading to a three
We're playing well but went cold shooting while driving is difficult with the physicality and hand swipes not being called
