Uh oh. Both of our centers have fouled out. Ajayi inactive tonight with a knee injury. Gonna be playing small the rest of the game.

Miami gets blown out by Ohio, and NIU up by 5. Our long shot at a home game is looking pretty good right now!

Blowout city! What a great win. Dominant second half.

NIU up 3 as we speak. A win from them and we are at home on Monday.

BSU and NIU going to OT. Ughhhhhh

Even Glenn "I like to open my mouth about attendance" Bryant tweeted about a good turnout.

Chad just shouted you out! You're famous!

Seriously? By name?

Yep. Something like "Rob Murphy fathead in the background held by Frank Anderson".

Cool. That makes me happy. Chad is the man.

Awesome game. Entire team came to the student section to give high fives. Loud, active crowd throughout. Sent the Toledo fans home with an L. And, best of all, Talley and Ward balled out on their Senior Night. Very happy I went to this one.

NIU wins. We host Miami on Monday.

Saw some pictures of that on twitter. Very cool move by the players. They seem like a great bunch of kids.

What happened?!?!? I had to go out to the car to change my daughters diaper. I come back to find I missed a lot of excitement...

Lots of Toledo turnovers and some big shots from Ward and Talley.

Ahh, senior night. Bond looked nice on some plays too once I got back. (He is still kind of freshmany though)

Yes, that was cool. And on the other end at the tunnel there were a bunch of little kids getting autographs from the players. I will definitely, definitely agree with you on the high character of all the young men Murphy brings in here. They deserve the good attention they got from the crowd today.

Why does no one ever post after games. I am so juiced up right now.

I'm amped too, Ray. As Murphy said, pre-March doesn't matter anymore. We're 2-0 this month.

made me spill my coco!

A few weeks ago, we said EMU shouldn't be losing by 24 against Toledo...

I am wondering UT fans are saying about losing by 26. HA!

There were a lot of UT fans there. If was a closer game, that might have had an impact.

Sadly, we get more comments after losses than we do wins on this board. Even after blowing out a team like Toledo.

That is funny! ... And kind of true. Hopefully they can get on a roll again in the tourney. I prefer the matchup against Miami as far as first round goes, and much prefer it at home instead of the millet. Miami just lost by 30 to Ohio nonetheless . I am sure they will respond by coming out hard against EMU. But still, they are a team that lost by THIRTY to the SECOND WORST TEAM IN THE CONFERENCE...

Let's go, love March basketball! Who is gonna be there Monday?

That is a little true as well.

Hey Sam, you've said this was a disappointing MAC season from time to time... But this win, in this fashion, against a top team fighting for the byes that give them a chance at the NCAAs... That washed the little of the bad taste out, doesn't it? I really enjoyed this one.

This was our best win all season!
