[kiltedbryan]

i think i will listen to the game tonight the hope game got canceld  till monday at so 7.30 so 3 games next week

Why is the game cancelled?

Looks like parts of Michigan are under a blizzard warning.  Check out the discussion on the conference's board: MIAA board.

Ideally, I would watch the Wooster feed and listen to the Witt call on the Worldwide Wittenberg Radio Network, but I'm not enough of a hardware guy to even know if that is possible to send one stream to the video and one stream to the audio.

It is indeed possible.  I've done it in the past, and plan on doing it again tonight.

Well, can you tell me how to do it?

Or do you just turn 'em both on and let 'er rip?

I just tried to get the video and nothing came across.

Thanks.  And, GO TIGERS!!!!

Wow!  Talk about peaking too early;  I thought the game started at 3:00.  No wonder it's not on yet.

Or, maybe I was just testing the system.  Yeah, that's what I was doing.

We used to live in Kalamazoo and now live in Cincinnati.  We never get any good snow down here but they cancel school whenever there is an inch of snow.

I always tell my kids that nothing ever got cancelled when we lived up there.

I will check out the MIAA board.  Drive carefully anybody who is up that way.

Yeah, just fire em both up, and turn the volume down on the video.

Some advance thoughts on the potential implications of tonight's game:

As Pat's Daily Dose from a few days ago noted, Woo-Witt carries some interesting Pool C implications, especially for Wittenberg's tourney hopes.

Best as I can figure, these are the relevant stats for both Woo and Witt, coming into the game:

Team, Regional Record (%), QoWI

Wooster:      13-1 (.929), 10.143
Wittenberg:  12-3 (.800), 9.400

After a Wittenberg win:

Wooster:      13-2 (.866), 9.867
Wittenberg:  13-3 (.813), 9.750

After a Wooster win:

Wooster:      14-1 (.933), 10.400
Wittenberg:  12-4 (.750), 9.250

The two teams pull more even if Wittenberg wins- both probably stay in the hunt for a Pool C.  If Wooster wins again, though, Wittenberg's Pool C sheet starts looking pretty bad.  They would have to pick up another loss in the conference tourney (to be a Pool C), for at least 5 in-region losses, and they would end up 0-3 or 0-4 against (likely) regionally-ranked opponents Wooster and Ohio Northern.  Also, Witt doesn't have much left on the schedule to help their QoWI out, with (as of now) a 12-pt game vs. OWU and an 11-pointer at Allegheny countered by two home maximum 8-pt games against Hiram and Wabash.

Without a Wittenberg win tonight, they could end with an end-of-the-year line like this:

Wittenberg:  18-5, (.728), 9.391*

See last year's Daily Dose where they projected the Pool Cs, and you'll see that such a Pool C line would be very suspect to make a March appearance.

* This is approximate, but probably even generous.  I gave Witt 10 QoWI pts. for the NCAC tourney game they would host (probably would be an 8pt. game), 12 for a semifinal on the road, and 7 for a loss to Wooster in the finals.

I updated my spreadsheet for the last Witt / Woo game.

In the last eleven games, Witt has won 6 and Wooster has won 5.

The total score of the 11 games is Wooster 800 Witt 798.

Talk about close!

Being a numbers guy, I'd sorta like to see Witt win by 2 tonight, although I would prefer a safer margin.

Go Tigers!

[TigerFan_1973]

Yeah, just fire em both up, and turn the volume down on the video.

Ah, very cool.  I didn't think of that.

As I like to say, I don't have to know the answer; I just have to know someone who does.

Thanks a lot.

Go Tigers

I just had one thing to add before I make the trek up the hill to Timken:


GO WOO!!!  BEAT WITT!!!
And PS:

IT'S FREAKING  COLD OUTSIDE!!! 

[division3hoops]

Very excited for the game tonight and to witness the "blackout".  The key for Wooster is to neutralize Witt's big men under the basket and to rebound, rebound, rebound.  I'm hoping that Vandervaart being out won't do too much damage to Wooster's rebounding.  Here's to hoping that no Woo big men go into foul trouble.
Let's go SCOTS!

[gotigers]

woooo hooo!!!!! i get to watch the game now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my friends car (the one we were taking to the game) brake pad went bad or something (im not a car guy) so weare leaving very early tommorrow. can't wait to watch witt beat up on them scotts. someone definitly needs to post a good picture of the black out if they can. witt needs to do a red out or something.....u know what i mean all two students wear red shirts to the game. lol

but anyway my prediction for the game

witt 87
woo 83
borchers (sp?) leading all scorers with 25

GO TIGERS!!!!!!

[jscwittfan]

10-5 Witt early on.  Gregg Hill is lights out so far, 3-3 (including 2-2 from 3) for 8 points.

18-5 now with 13 minutes to go in the first half.  Poor shooting from Wooster doing them in, as they are 2-7 from the field, as well as foul trouble (6 already for Wooster, including 2 offensive).

[Li'l Giant]

First, let me say it's pretty cool to have your team shown with streaming video.

Second, Witt has started out hot. Having never seen a game at Timken is this crowd normal or is it usually more rowdy than this? I think the crowd needs to get off their hands here.
