9-4 is not what I thought I’d see, looking more for an 8-2/8-3. It figured we’d lose to the Power Five teams on the schedule, however I thought the only game we looked bad in was Alabama. The loss at Evansville was real disappointing, but a good lesson that you have to play tough the whole game - they seem to have learned. The 4-1 versus MVC teams was good. Even the play without Hazel, RJ, and Ish’ were good signs, but we need them back and healthy for the MAC. All in all the results were pretty good. Now on to the real season. Final thought, playing a team like Evansville home and home is a good idea. Let’s you know what you’ll see at conference time. It appears we learned a good lesson, now carrying it into conference play.

I think you are correct & we will know what this team is or isn't capable of 3 weeks from tomorrow.

Need to beat Toledo to slow their momentum. Everyone is high on them right now but they haven't beat anyone we couldn't beat

But how they play the last 3 weeks of the season, how other teams are playing, injuries then, to us or other teams, and it's that last week that tends to be what we remember. It's a long way away. |

Toledo now ranked in top 50 Massey Composite. They should be about a 5 point favorite.
