I did see that and its kinda surprising. Gave me a moment’s comfort even. We’ll see where we go from here. Team seems too disengaged and not talented enough to make a run like those teams did. Let’s hope we have it in us.

Is this supposed to make me feel good about our team? it does not. Yeah, I'd rather take my chances with 8-0, blowing people out. Although looking at our early schedule, the only loss that is a big surprise is Miami. And of course nobody plans on losing a starter. I thought we'd handle Kent by a small margin on the road, and I guess a loss in OT isn't far from that result. But, the margin of loss in other games is a nasty surprise. Everybody will probably lose one like that where they are flat, not 3.

I truly hope this team and staff prove me wrong but I do not think they will. It looks like we have made some improvement but it is not enough in my very humble opinion. If I had to make a bet on how far we go, I would not place any money past the first round of the MAC.

Problem is those stats are likely very similar the to first seven games for the 5-7 place finishers as well.

Which probably also shows that the tournament is always a crap shoot with the "best" team not winning nearly as often as we tend to think. It's the "best team" in the championship game because it wins that game, I guess that's maybe true as far as it goes. It is usually a team that is playing better during the last part of the season. That's true.

Interesting but this program since 00-01 doesn't have a history at all of outperforming their seed in the MAC tourney.
