Ryan Autullo of the Blade has some stuff in this blog and a story today about whether the team is making progress. I like the way he's thinking. I am a little more cautious until I see some more consistent production against stronger opposition, but, here is what he said....
From the Blog:
The men’s team looked excellent Thursday against Buffalo. It was a whoopin’ throughout. Buffalo never made a serious run to get back in it and looked totally frustrated trying to attack BG’s defense. I said it a couple of blogs ago, and I’ll say it again. BG’s defense will win games on its own this year. They attack, disrupt passing lanes, and as soon as a post player gets the ball he’s immediately being harassed by multiple defenders. That said, when the offense is firing, as it did Thursday, BG is at least a top five team in the MAC.
Otis is on a roll right now and he may never look back. He’s definitely starting to get it. Maybe Moten is starting to figure things out as well. Shoot, maybe the entire team is beginning to get it. Sunday’s game at Akron should reveal more.
From the newspaper:
It's too early to determine whether the offense is about to take off. BG shot 53 percent against Buffalo yet converted just 42 percent last Saturday in a 63-49 loss at Kent. Returning to northeast Ohio today, the Falcons will be challenged by the MAC's top-scoring offense. Akron has won three straight, the most recent coming Thursday in a 55-54 win over Ohio (1-2 in MAC). East members Miami and Buffalo are each 0-3 in the MAC.
