I was going to play my next game against Akron b/c they're one of the other "best teams in the league" but I really do like the arbitrary nature of simming one out of every two games and the sim element that is added as I have to recruit well and set up strategies well for the sim engine too, not just mash buttons well. Of course, I break this rule all the time in non-conference play to get through early recruiting ASAP, but whatever. Anyway:

Jan 18, 2015

Ohio 96
at Akron 51


Well then. Murphy, Cooper, house, Bright, Mendoza, and Lufkin end up in double figures, House leading all with 16 points on 5-7 shooting. We carry a 39-29 edge on the boards in the win.


Going into the next week, Akron is #11 in the mid-major poll (they are 11-4/3-1 in the MAC), Northern Illinois is #5(14-2/3-1), and we are #3!

#1 Utah State is 17-2 with the 49th best RPI, 5-2 vs teams ranked 51-100. They're #22 in the coaches poll/unranked in the media poll.

#2 Nevada is 15-2 with the 56th best RPI. 4-2 vs 51-100. Unranked in both polls.

Nevada and Utah State play each other on February 5th and March 2nd(both being in the WAC).


#3 Ohio is #24 in the RPI at 12-4. We are 2-2 vs the RPI top 50(!!!!). We're 2-0 vs 51-100. We have two bad losses, but our conference has improved greatly and I dont think we will have many games against teams rated 200 or worse. Our two top 50 wins are Hofstra and San Diego.


Our next two games we should win, I sim the one against the team w/ the worse record:

January 21, 2015

at Ohio 91
C. Michigan 72



Murphy gets 4 fouls in 11 minutes and is scoreless. Cooper 4 fouls in 10 minutes, but scores 13. Watson leads us with 17, House 14, Lamkin and Lufkin 11.

Our next game is vs Buffalo, a game we *should* win very easily, but they are 4-1 in conference play so we'll see.
