Ball State hasn't really beat anyone good, but they have played most of the other teams in the top of the MAC very tight in their matchups.

I've seen crazier things happen.

Dirt sheets are somewhat of a guide to some chants and also contains "dirt" or embarrassing info gathered on the opposing players, which in this case would be Ball State's players / coaches. The O-Zone has used them for a long period of time atleast dating back to the early 00's.

Looking forward to watching the complete game at home while enjoying the Chinese New Year break… It is the Year of the tiger…. Ahem, go Bengals!
Hoping we put Ball State away relatively early in the second half and get our bench guys some minutes. Preserve those fresh minds and legs!

Go Bobcats!

Tonight starts a huge two week stretch. We play seven games from now until 2/15.

Three straight at home against beatable opponents. I don't see why we can't go 3-0.

Balls 70
OHIO 76

What a day at the Convo.....Wow!

We can't keep playing Sears 40 minutes per game. Not sure why he had too the last two games. Let's dominate and get him some rest moving forward during this brutal stretch of games in a limited period of time.

One of the all time classics. I think it came from him doing the commercials for Big Sandy? Also there was an article in a Huntington publication about well dressed men in the area and Coach White was one of those featured.

Well, I see I have to interject my obligatory "don't underestimate the opponent" post. Cards have been playing better recently. If we don't play well, this could be a loss. I think we win, but I think covering the spread will be difficult.

Cardinals on a winning streak of 3!!!

Their wins were against MAC powerhouses WMU, NIU, and M-O. The same M-O team whose only 2 wins since December were against those other two teams - NIU and WMU.

Which leads to the question: how did M-O start the year with a win at Ga. Tech of the ACC?

I remember that, when I was 'running' the O Zone, our dirt sheet process included a fake Twitter and Instagram account of an "Ohio Student" that didn't exist. We'd fire off some follow requests to the private accounts of opposing players and usually get accepted. Also would get some realllllly compromising DMs sent to us on occasion, but never used those... no one needs to lose a scholly over banter.

Went a little too far west, let's go SJ Earthquakes!

How did NIU beat Washington? That's the real question.

Just got to the Convo and looked like he was participating in pregame warm ups.

Edit: He just came out of the locker room in street clothes. Looks to be a no go tonight

Zebras are calling fouls like people are paying to watch them. 11 before the 4 minute time out. Only excuse would be if the game were getting chippy. It’s not.

Our defense continues to impress. Great to see another dominating win.
