Is it psychological? I see DJ Cooper has another technical. That brings him to second in the nation on the season. Wow. He's too good of a player to have that kind of a statistic.

Akron only beat them by 4....sometimes rivalry games are closer than what they appear they should be on paper. I think Kent has better talent than record shows

And no..... DJ did not have a technical foul. Not sure where you saw that.

I see attendance was 8483 fans. Not bad for an 11 AM start.

I'm not questioning OU's ability. I was just curious.

Sorry, I was looking at the box score for the last time they played.

1/2: @JasonAmessenger: RT @BiG_ReG30: "You guys have the best fans" quoted from a kent player as the game was going on. They know what's up #BobcatNation #bestF

Should EMU show up Wednesday or is it still too dangerous?

Too dangerous only for the EMU team! They may be in danger of a heart attack (or at least fainting) if they see the stands filled by 10X the # of fans that they get for a game in Ypsi.

Buffalo wins on the road at Miami 79-71.

In two games this week, Tony Watson has had 55 points on 17/25 shooting including 12/18 from three to go with 8 assists and only 1 turnover. MAC East POTW for sure.

LeBron is unimpressed.

Just kidding. Nice week!

i think a deranged shooter on the loose will be the least of your team's worries on Wednesday night!

BG dressed in blue, did they forget to pack and had to borrow some Zips jerseys?

They're wearing their gray unis.

Still...zips not making much ground after holding BG to 2 field goals in 11 minutes

the audio sounds like I'm listening in my car and am just about to lose the signal. everything about this game is brutal so far.

Good game WMU. What a collapse by the Huskies.

BG with a scoring frenzy!

Updated MAC Standings:

1. Akron 12-0
2. Ohio 10-1
3. WMU 8-4
X. Toledo 8-4
4. Buffalo 6-6
5. EMU 5-6

6. BGSU 5-7
8. Ball St. 4-8
9. Miami 3-9
9. NIU 3-9
11. CMU 2-10

At 12-0 in conference play Akron ties the best start in MAC history.

5,247 at the BG game is the third highest attendance at the JAR this season.

Akron has also officially clinched a bye to the semi's in the MAC tournament.

And the weird thing is, this team is not playing nearly as well as they should be.

Big game next Friday!

There is lots of talent there for sure. Surprised at the attendance figure though. You would think the people of Akron would be really getting behind this team.

I went to the game with a couple of my buddies, and due to a lapse of judgment we arrived 20 minutes late. We had a hard time finding 3 seats together and ended up in the second to last row of the bleacher seating.

The number might look low, but the JAR was full.
