The women had a tough, gritty win over BYU yesterday. BYU bullied the Cards for the first half but with good coaching made half times adjustments and played tough defense. It didn't hurt that the Cards hit 11 three pointers. Becki got into an altercation with a BYU player twice her size after that player grabbed Becki. Becki then forcefully shoved the BYU player to the floor. Becki was charged with a tech and intentional foul. The other girl was charged with an intentional foul. Rebounding still needs to improve but was much better in second half. The CArds in the second half matched the toughness of BYU.

Good road trip for them. Lots of talent. They are on their way.

Was a little worried about Thelma but not now. Match up well size wise with Western KY. Western seems to make many TO. Ball State pressure could be a real problem for them. We have to rebound much better.

The women beat BG last night in a hard fought game 81-73. Brady Sallee in the press conference really unloaded on The MAC for not having this game on CBSSN or other national outlets. Said that the conference is not doing enough to promote women's basketball and womens sports in general. Our men's team has finally caught up to the women in playing the game the right way. Two conference champion contenders really got after it last night. Just watch the game on ESPN Demand. The deafening silence of disinterest on this board concerning the women's team is disappointing. People who don't watch them are really missing out on some quality play. The team is currently 11-3. You say nobody gives a shit about women's sports. Well I am a Ball State fan. Do we have a Corn Hole team?

Excellent win last night over an 11-1 Bowling Green team and there was likely less than 600 fans in attendance despite the official attendance being inflated to over 1100. Attendance has been dismal forever for BSU women’s basketball. Nobody seems to care about this team despite having winning seasons year after year. BSU and Toledo are head and above every team in the MAC this year with Bowling Green a distant third.

I agree with you. I have been watching their games from afar on ESPN+. Fun stuff. However, the overall interest is just not there for women's basketball. Maybe it can be promoted more with continued success this year.

I may be wrong but it is the Ball State depth that in the fourth quarter of these games that is bringing it home. Becki has two quality backups, Marie K. has Annie R. and Alex R. Thelma has Sydney S. and so on. Everyone on the team is tough as nails that finally wears down the other team. Bowling Green has a very good team that is capable of beating anybody. Very interested in the Toledo/BG game.

I was not wrong the Ball State depth won the game yesterday against Western. Becki did not play(starting point guard and one of our leading scorers. Hope she can play against Toledo.

Toledo blew a 17 point 4th quarter lead to a mediocre Northern Illinois team and there are now only 3 undefeated teams left in the MAC. They include BSU, Kent State and Akron. Toledo’s collapse at NIU may ultimately come back to haunt them at the end of the MAC season.

Out played, out classed out everything tonight. Layups seem to be a real weakness.

Out played, out classed out everything tonight. Layups seem to be a real weakness. Correct. Similar to the game last night at Ohio; seems to be a preparation issue. 20 to 9 fouls was pretty lopsided. Some MAC home cooking - happens a lot at Toledo. Good to have Becki back. Lack of play by Richard and Rauch and Shafer showed up in the forth quarter. We looked tired.

When the game was still winnable the foul and ft disparity was ridiculous. Sallee was steamed at the half. But, we gotta play better. Depth did not pay off tonight. Need to get quicker/more athletic. UT guards abused us.
