Tough trip. We have not had much success in their gym.

Central Michigan definitely has underperformed after being unanimously picked to win the West and tabbed as the tournament favorite by the media. Early, it was because perhaps the expected best player in the league was sitting out. But they still haven't gotten it together, and Fowler hasn't been as good as expected since returning. He hasn't shot real well. Still, the Chippewas can shoot and score as a whole. They typically don't play very good defense. This probably will be another high-scoring game for Ohio.

Central has a lot of good shooters and they can score quickly. They could feast off of open threes if our D doesn't improve. I agree that both teams are likely to score a bunch. Should be entertaining if nothing else.

I don't have this problem at all. Another thing about ESPN3 is that if you have Amazon Prime with the Fire Stick, or Apple TV, you can load the Watch ESPN app and skip using your phone altogether. Works great for me on our TV.

Anxious to watch these two games in person on this extended road trip. The 'cats will stay up north after the Central game versus travel all the way home then turn around and go back to Toledo. Good move.
These two games should give us a good view of where this group stands in regards to the MAC. At some point you must have the mental toughness to win road games ! Go Cats !

I'd be pleased with 1-1 in the next two road games, and expect to hold home court in the three that follow. It's a wide open conference this year unless a couple teams move away from the pack (NIU, Akron, Kent maybe?)

Ugly. Obviously our offense wasn't there today but we have to get better defensively, how many ally-oops, shots at the rim did we give up today?

Another road game another lose. We're now 0-3 on the road in the conference. Next road game @ Toledo on Tuesday. Anyone care to make a prediction whether we will continue this current road loosing streak?

Bobcats had numerous travels, missed foul shots and defensive lapses. Bobcats need to develop depth for next year.

Not much effort from the Bobcats. No enthusiasm, no aggressiveness, no defense in 2nd half and no offense!! We don't play well in the CMU neighborhood. We get killed in Toledo with that type of performance. Very surprised of this performance.

Watch the defensive series at the 1:20 mark and it will tell you all you need to know about our defense. Three players totally out of position.

Yeah, that's pretty bad awareness.

Lousy D but what "three" are "totally" out of position? If you were the coach what you would tell whom about their responsibilites and your breakdown of what happened? Many here might be enlightened and gain a bit from the lesson.

never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Good point, definitely not 3. One for sure, unless he's on orders to not leave his man, which is something we don't know as fans. Not likely. But definitely not e out of position.
