vs. Eastern Michigan (1/25)

Is Plowden dead again?

[BleedOrange]

Ah, looking like another win over a very bad Michigan directional.

HALF: BGSU 46-31

Really solid half of basketball. We actually look like a team out there.

Now, finish the job.

Is Plowden dead again?

Two fouls almost immediately. Didn’t see the floor again. Luckily he wasn’t really needed.

I don't care how legit the calls are, or who benefits from them. A half of basketball with 33 free throws shot is simply not entertaining.

[mbenecke]

Myron Gordon had 13 points in the first half. If he’s going to contribute like that, I’d like to see more from him.

[mbenecke]

Under 16 in the second half, BG leads 56-40. Plowden to the line to finish a 3-point play after the break.

Playing hard. Actually defending and moving the ball. What’s going on?

[BillyLP]

I really love the way Turner rebounds and hustles on D in general. Not great with the basketball in his hands but does all the right things away from the ball.

[mbenecke]

Really pretty fadeaway from Matiss. That was gorgeous. He’s got 12.

Under 12, BG leads 65-51.

Matiss had been begging for that ball for a few possessions before they finally gave it to him. He clearly knows he had that guy’s number.

Oh. Huger's just being a dumbass again.

[mbenecke]

7:45 to play in the second half, BG leads 70-59.

Matiss to the line for 2 after the break.

Normally I’d agree that it’s a ridiculous tactic, but with both Young and O’Neal out, Reece/Plowden/Matiss are our only “bigs” available to play the 4 and 5. So it makes enough sense to save guys as much as you can, especially when you’re controlling play in the first half.

[mbenecke]

With 2:33 to play, BG leads 82-62.

[mbenecke]

7 different players have scored 20+ in a game this season for this team. Crazy depth.

And Plowden has now passed Dylan Frye for 15th on the all-time scoring list.
