We have crappy TV options...I pay for all these sports stations but don't this particular one...

Western got it down to a bucket before Harris connected right before the media timeout. With 7:52 to go, MT leads 50-46.
Darnell Harris is so clutch. Disappointed we didn't beat them by 30 but a win is a win over the goats.
No kidding. I guess the positive is...by letting them come all the way back to take the lead & then win like we did, we basically just ripped their guts out. The farmers better hide their livestock in Western KY tonight - there are going to be some disappointed Toppers looking for love after that heartbreak.
Sat almost mid court in the heart of the enemies. Toppers were all crying about that last tip in by Darnell. Their tears taste so sweet. Also had a guy behind me yell "get up your not on ESPN" at Ivory when he got injured. Reminded me of them booing the USM injuries. Classy bunch.
Surprise surprise. Their fans have a higher than normal proportion of jackasses. Must be something about Bowling Green.
Most pathetic fans in the nation. Memphis is a CLOSE second. It's like deciding on which turd is larger in the toilet.

My gosh, 5,200 was their highest attendance for the year and they had only broken 4k once?? I thought Bowling Green was the mecca for college basketball.
After seeing Harris's tip-in, instead of listening to the call, I do not get the Topper crying about a missed offensive goaltending. The ball was clearly out of the cylinder when Harris touched it; especially obvious on the under the basket view.
I know the Toppers are complaining about 4 or 5 plays that "cheated" them, but that one really was a clean score.
been watching the Haven for this wku's fan 'efficiency' breakdown.
