got spanked on the boards!

[geezer]

Yes we got beat on the boards by a team with an overall bigger line up.  Three point shooting percentage not good enough and too many attempts.  While free throw percentage was better, Ohio shot almost 90% from the line.

That's not a bad result. Ohio will contend in the MAC. Three road games in 5 days, they will be battle tested by conference. Don't they still have Kentucky and Ohio St. on the road later? I like the tougher schedule. What time is the Charlotte game Saturday?

[BLUEDOVE3]

Some good things out of this schedule:

a. Players learn to step their game up against better competition & hopefully carry over to conference play.

2. Darn sure looks good if I'm recruiting and I show a prospect the team schedule. Plus, If I'm a potential mid-level D1 player being recruited, I may not be able to play WITH a Kentucky, but at least I can play against them.

Charlotte game is at 11a.m. Saturday! Going to be a fun day at Lamar. Come to the game. Then tailgate a few hours and then watch football vs McNeese!
