Let's hope we can expose the West like I am thinking is possible. Akron stumbled, but Kent & Miami have gotten the ball rolling.

We beat an EMU team that we needed to, and should beat. Now to a 5-1 MAC team, but the 5 are coming from the West. Time to extend Ball U's home losing streak to 3.

Ball State is No. 1 in the country in free throws attempted per field goals attempted and they shoot free throws at a fairly average clip. That's the key to their offense, which really isn't all the great as a whole.

Jarrod Jones, of course, is a great post player and he takes about one-third of his team's shots, which is in the top 25 in the country in the percentage. Randy Davis is a good passer, but hasn't shot well this year. Juwan Scaife is second on the team in scoring, but he's shooting a low percentage too. Malik Perry doesn't shoot often, but he's been efficient.

The Cardinals are not a big team. Jones is 6-9 and then after that they mostly go with guys 6-4 and smaller. Perry is 6-4 and 240, so he is physical, but other than those two, the guys are 200 and less. I hope that means good things for Ivo and DeVaughn.

But even though they are small, they've played really good defense. They don't foul much either.

Ball State's best win was against Indiana State the second game of the year. Since then, their wins are against teams around 200 and lower. Then again, all of their losses have been against teams around 140 and higher. We tend to fall somewhere in between, so I think we stand a good chance if play a good team game like we did for most of the game against Eastern Michigan.

Ball State only favored by 4? WOW this is a real surprise to me. I thought 8-10 would have been the more appropriate
spread.

My link above is just pulled out of Channelsurfing -- that way you can use another media player if you'd like.  I tend to use VLC for video and Quicktime for the audio, so I can pause one or the other and get them synced up.

Think Ball State has their camera positioned high enough?
 

Alright. Nevermind they just zoomed it in.

Wonder if we got them from Warren Swain High School like Jerome Williams?

Nice to see Ricardo getting some quality minutes. He has made a few mistakes, but I like his mid-range game.

Good ball movement, good rebounding, great defense....7 point lead despite not hitting some pretty good looks.  We're way better than these guys...but as we all know, that doesn't mean we'll hold onfor the win.  But I like our chances!

I like our defense, even though Ball isn't known for a fast pace. Ball looks most effective when they can get inside and shoot layups and short jumpers, and they really haven't had a ton of looks from there. We've forced them into a lot of tough jumpers. I have a feeling Ball will score the first two baskets in the second half, so we have to come out with the defensive intensity immediately and serve notice. Despite a scratchy game from Cooper, that was a solid first half.

I've been critical of DeVaughn Washington all year, but his alter ego DeShawn Washington is having a very nice first half on both ends of the floor. Maybe the light bulb has went on in Muncie today for him.

I've never been able to get it to work in the 4 years I've been on here.

Oh well, lets see if we have any ejections forthcoming...
