Who will lose to BG?

I haven't seen a poll on here yet, but who do you think will play against BGSU on the 11th? NIU is coming off of a 3 game losing streak, the most recent contest was at Ball State and lost in OT. Kent State, also lost it's past 3 games, with a 44-50 loss to Buffalo. Kent has the better scorer, Anna Kowalska at 15.0 PPG, and 8.1 rebounds compared to Whitney Lowe at 11.3 PPG, and Ebony Ellis with 5.9 rebounds. Both teams happened to lose their senior day to Ohio. NIU's record is slightly better at 6-8, but played fewer games against Kent's 5-11.
So, who will be the first to fall against our ladies?
My guess will be that NIU will come out on top of this game. What sways me is the loss to Buffalo for the flashes. Only scoring 44 points seems to be pretty low, but then again senior days can really cause havoc given the right atmosphere.
Regardless of your choice, let's start doing research on whichever team you expect to win, and try to get some truly creative cheers going! Perhaps some of the students who have access to the unlimited bounty of computer paper can snag some orange paper from a department to print up unique cheers against the opponents to help get the crowd into this one..
Extra credit:
Will the tragedy at NIU affect the tournement for them, as so many sports events are keen to pick up on this sort of thing?
