Trailing by 5 at the half in a really, really offensively sloppy performance. Players are in bad position for the shot but still putting it up. Defensively doing well.

Have we hit a wall? Is this team tired?

Seems like they are running on fumes. Not having Sharps is definitely catching up.

Down by 2 at end of third but trailed by 14 midway. Clamped the press on which probably should have happened sooner. WMU turning it over a lot in that last 5 minutes.

It was a struggle for a while, but BG pulls away and wins by 12.
Next game is @ Central Michigan, who we previously beat by 33. If possible, I’d like to see Fralick work in some of the depth in that one to get the regulars some rest. Gonna be a grind down the stretch, with our 2 biggest games still ahead of us.

Brett was money from the foul line 10-10 but Velasco stepped up in 4th quarter with D and several slashes to the basket. Basically, the press with a smaller lineup won the game. Tate staying out of foul trouble yet guarding or at least playing inside made a difference as well.

I think this counts as a jinx post. Tie game in the 4th.
I had looked at halftime and saw the score but I didn’t wanna jinx it by posting it here. Lol

NIU wins 84-77....ruh roh...they may be peaking at the right time. Shooting 52% from three will take you places

Thank me later for the reverse jinx post. Works every time!

BG was able to grind it out!
