MAC Tournament
- Thread starter BGFalcon
- Start date
Glad I stayed home, at least I got laid, then the Zips fu(ked me again in the 2nd half. :sadwave:
Will try to wrap this tourney on a positive note after cashing my only 3 posted plays at the Q.
Kent State -4
Despite their blow out loss in Toledo earlier this year I strongly feel that the Flashes are the side tonight. You can toss that first one out due to a really great situational spot for the Rockets. Kent had just got through a tough stretch and the results were predictable.
Akron lost last night for a few reasons, but primarily because they could simply not hang with Toledo's guards. The Zips were a step behind when it counted the most, and got very little from their guards offensively as well. Kent possesses the athleticism that Akron lacks and should contain Toledo well and exploit the rockets down low much more effectively than Akron did last night.
I see no reason at all not to back the Flashes big tonight. Falcon.... whats your take?

BG and G-man....great to meet you guys last night, albeit WAY too brief!
I think the string runs out for Toledo tonight as well... They have been playing great ball of late, but really, Akron did have them beat pretty well before giving the game back. I think Toledo will keep it tight for the first half....even 8-10 minutes into the second, but eventually Kent will pull away. Too much experience in the limelight.....too much of a presence down low...and this is Toledo's 4th game in 6 nights. Kent REALLY hasn't been tested so far, and I don't think that will change tonight. They are playing much better than I anticipated.....
Kent -4 (OLY)....excuse me, "The Greek"

Sorry, guys, I missed your posts yesterday. Still licking my wounds over Akron's meltdown. After the fact but I did like Kent in the final. Toledo benefited from poor play out of Akron and really didn't belong in the championship game. Goose, it was nice meeting you. Maybe we can all get together for an Indians game this summer.
