Less shut down than OU cooled off. Toledo plays bad defense. Offensively? Is going crazy with a bench w have forgotten to use since November. Hubbard led the MAC in returning scoring from WMU. Ouwinga was a starter in November and is TKs highest rated recruit ever. Ford leads the MAC in 3pt %. Astonishing this team won any games getting 12 bench points and playing them a combined 20 minutes a game lately.

Hubbard with 15 first-half pts

OUr makeup leads to mismatches. But also provides mismatches on the other end. Lorentzen guarding any of our wings is a mismatch in Ohio's favor, but we haven't taken advantage of it.

Elliot may "bring a spark" according to the announcer....but he needs to attack the rim. Missing those dipsy doodle layups is not good.

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

Half of it is we are not mano Mano.The other half is too small, look to pass.

The other half of it is we give up 90 points we�re not gonna win.

Just don�t get Boals with Brown minutes. Comes out second half on fire and then sits him for four minutes and then Toledo goes on its run. Get Brown in.

Could there be a more different game, stylistically, than what we saw vs Kent? If we win this one too I'll be impressed.

I have never seen a home team get jobbed by the officials like we are getting. Hand taps are fouls on us while we get hammered. Great effort by OUr guys tonight. And Coach K is still mediocre.

AJB can't miss, so two possessions in a row where he doesn't touch the ball.

I just don't understand. AJB has 19 in the second half, and we come out of a timeout and don't even run an action to try and get him an open look.

Somebody explain to me why Sheldon is in this game in the last four minutes and Boals set up a 3 for him out of a timeout? He hasn�t made a three-point shot since high school. I don�t get it.

I'm honestly encouraged by this performance regardless of the result. We're right there with them despite our injuries. We are playing a shootout tonight compared to a defensive slugfest against Kent State.

Toledo can't miss which isn't going to happen on a nightly basis. Credit to the Rockets for being red hot. Wish our defense was better but that's been a problem all year even when healthy.

Don't mean to call him out, but it really seems like has the yips. I've noticed he's been kicking his legs out more on his 3's--makes me think it's in his head.

Best shooter takes the ball out of bounds. Worst shooter takes the three???

At least we let our hottest shooter take the final shot, and get a really good look at it.

I mean, it DID draw backboard. Kinda.

The Rockets own Ohio. Toledo has won 12 of last 13 according to ESPN.

This one is on Boals. Benched Brown for last nine minutes of first half. Then in last five minutes of game�Sheldon is in the game and misses two three�s and AJB doesn�t get a shot in last four minutes. And to top it off�.Brown throws it in to Sheldon for the final three. Make it make sense.

Tod K 8-0 all-time vs Boals in regular season. I have no words for that. Tod K is his daddy for sure.

Coaching malpractice tonight out of Boals.

Zero

And in the last two minutes, he subbed Brown out for defense and we had an offensive possession in the last two minutes with Brown on bench.

Boals is 0-7 at OU in the regular season vs. UT. Yes Ohio is better when healthy. A team with lots of length but lack of bigs is happy the 6'8 dudes are out. Toledo is metrically awful because they are a bottom 40 team in the nation in defense. The fact that 26 points of scoring isn't there will help the Rockets.

Toledo has laid some eggs this season. Oakland and Kent 20+ losses at home. The Rockets also figured out Marshall and EMU which Ohio did not.

There is no team with more variance in the league than Toledo. The good version of was down 5 with 10 minutes against Purdue and lead Akeon by 12 at half. The bad version appears about half of the time. I would read Toledo as maybe a 130 Kenpom or maybe a 270 Kenpom. Rarely anything in-between. If it is it's one half of each. Inconsistoledo.

We know Toledo has won 12 of last 13 vs Ohio. Does anyone know what Boals record is vs the Zips and Kent? Guessing it is below .500??

C'mon guys. Look on the bright side. We will get an awesomely goofy locker room dance after we beat Miami to go 6-3 in this juggernaut of a conference.

I thought we did very well tonight while missing 26 points per game from our starting lineup, and Evans contributing nothing on the front line.

Time to take the Bubble Wrap off Kuany?

Feels like Kuany playing this season isn't even a thought with the staff. Too bad. Evans court awareness continues to not be there.
