BG vs BSU - MAC Tournament 1st Round

[Rollo83]

SO who do we want to play if we win this? Eastern or Miami?

I can't even think about that right now. Gotta win this one first. BG comes out of the break sluggish and Ball State scores 8 straight to cut it to 8! BG calls timeout. It's not over yet. Gotta finish!

[BGSU33]

Lead now down to 6....we had our foot on their throat and couldn't finish them, now we're in a battle.

Akron is absolutely slaughtering NIU. Wouldn't see them for a while but they are playing with some fire.

[BGSU33]

Now down to 5....we are totally being outplayed by a team that has lost 16 consecutive games.

[BGSU33]

Lead down to 3.....WTF BG?!

[jakehovs23]

Just have to win.

Akron is up 73-35! Holy crap! Also, Ohio up 18-4 at WMU. OU dead in the water most of the season but they are always a team to deal with in the MAC Tournament.

[BGSU33]

BG back up 10 with 5:25 to go. Finish them Falcons.

[BGSU33]

Full-court press causing us all kinds of problems again. Ball State gets a few turnovers off it and cuts BG's lead down to 7 with about 3:00 to go. Nothing easy about this game at all. It's been a total grind.

[jakehovs23]

Time to exhale.

[BGSU33]

It wasn't pretty, it wasn't easy, but it was a win! It's been several years since we won a MAC Tournament game or advanced to Cleveland and that is something to be excited about.

On to the next one

[Rollo83]

EMU just hit a 3 at the buzzer to send game into OT with Miami.

[jakehovs23]

Damn, would have rather seen Miami. I'll take it though...Beat EMU!!!
