That's Louis Orr basketball.
Re: That's Louis Orr basketball.
YSU has proven they are a better basketball team than us. They maybe have a better football team too. (Based on convincing win over Pitt in opener this year.) Of course we were pretty good in our opener too...... Wondering why they have never been invited into MAC, or have they? I'm guessing their facilities are not MAC worthy?

YSU is not better football team....that said, I have no interest in seeing them in the MAC. We have enough NE Ohio exposure now.
I have even less interest in seeing this team play...

Agreed, the conference already has six teams in the state, no need for a 7th.Flipper wrote:YSU is not better football team....that said, I have no interest in seeing them in the MAC. We have enough NE Ohio exposure now.
BGSU c/o 2009 & 2013

BG is just lucky YSU didnt play good. If ysu plays good or just makes free throws, they are a 20 point better team than BG. This is a good YSU team, so dont know why people are saying we lost to "youngstown" like its bad, your just bowling green? I dont know what the big difference is??

I have no idea if YSU is a good team or not. All I know is that they played poorly on Saturday, and BG just managed to play worse enough that they still lost by 9.
Maybe YSU goes on to be great, I don't know, and I really don't care. I know what I saw on Saturday was two teams playing terrible basketball with one of them just being that much worse. I don't live under any delusions that we should be world's better than YSU just because we're BG & they're YSU. My complaints have nothing to do with who we lost to, merely about how we played.
Re: That's Louis Orr basketball.
The big difference is that BG stinks, needs a new coach, and this is as good as Youngstown has been in 15 years.

Re: That's Louis Orr basketball.
I'm questioning whether I'll bother to watch BG on TV when they play Michigan State.

The word "good" is NOT and adverb.
"BG is lucky YSU didn't play well. If YSU had played well, or had just made free throws, they might have beaten BG by 20. ..."
Sorry. Pet peeve.

Re: That's Louis Orr basketball.
I'm fairly sure the brass at BGSU talks weekly, if not more about what to do about "the Orr Problem"

Re: That's Louis Orr basketball.
On more than one occasion people have asked me how I'm doing and when I answer "Well" they pause for a moment and then say "Well, what?" I'm serious. Wish more people DID give a crap about grammar-it's there for a reason.BleedOrange wrote:12345 wrote:BG is just lucky YSU didnt play good.
