"We played the right way the whole game".................Whitford are you joking ? This game was an absolute shit fest. He obviously wasn't talking about our first have shooting...and second half they got too many lay ups...
He was right, though, 1st half we were getting shots. Unfortunately 2 or 3 had KJ shooting fade away and for some reason we were not taking some 3's where a shooter had the ball. 2nd half we hit some shots, not exactly better ones, but we did hit more than they did after all.
In terms of effort and defense not so bad as you say, either. Akron worked hard and hit some hard shots to get 29 at the half.
Kudos to KJ and Taj for some active defense. KJ shut down Utomi on that last possession. And despite some ugly shots, hit his FTs and was second leading scorer.

We’ve made Teague irrelevant the last few weeks. We can’t guard utomi. Utomi hit about 1/3 of his shot, maybe it looked worse than it was?

From the official BSU website:
"About the Matchup • Ball State faces an Akron team that leads the MAC in scoring defense, allowing only 62.5 points per game (14th nationally), and ranks second in field goal percentage defense at 40.5 percent. Offensively, the Zips have attempted the most 3-pointers of any team in the league at more than 28 per game. Akron features four double-figure scorers, led by three players averaging within one point of each other: Daniel Utomi (13.9), Loren Cristian Jackson (13.7) and Jimond Ivey (13.2)."
Akron was no slouch, especially on the defensive end. I've said earlier y'all often do not respect the competition.
Any win is a good one. Celebrate the fact the Cards improved the won loss record.
Go Cards!

You don't watch when the other team has the ball? 9 Reb, getting to the line and hitting 6-8 is in the stat line, since you don't actually seem to care about anything not in the book.

Wow 9 rebounds the same number as Persons, when the opponent goes 4-25 from three everyone is going to get rebounds. Hell, Nehls and Thompson each had 2 and they barely played.

If your takeaway this game is KJ playing poorly, you watched a different game than I.

Ugly Ugly Ugly game.. But a win is a win and we got it..
Ill share a conversation I heard while going to the bathroom after the game. The conversation was between two older fans.
"I do not understand why we did not play Huggins at all he needs some minutes.. Yea he really needed to be used early in the year so he had some experience. Yea he is going to have to start next year..
Yea I do not get unless whitford feels like he is coaching for his job. Yea I was talking to Randy and says Whitford is kinda coaching for his job"
I do not know who these guys are or who randy is but they are either posters on this board or some on here are not as crazy as we think they are
