YSU is a hard team to judge thus far. They lost about 80% of their scoring from last year, including Dwayne Cohill who left with a year of eligibility remaining, but were still picked to finish in the middle of the HL. They’re 3-3 with 2 wins against non D1 teams (Ohio Christian and Lake Erie) and the other is a team transitioning to D1 (Utah Tech, which finished 12th in the 13 team WAC last year). On the other hand, 2 of their losses are at Michigan and at Dayton. The only true gauge to this point is a 10 point loss at Louisiana, which was picked 5th in the Sun Belt.

Interesting as we head into this game, CSU is 0-2 on the road this year. We put up a heck of a game and fell just short versus a top 75 team in Duquesne on the road, and then we laid an egg at Eastern Michigan and played really poorly. So I am concerned about winning on the road. I feel like CSU is (probably?) the better team here, and as frankiemeatballs noted, 2 of YSU's 3 home games have been versus non-D1 and the other was a team transitioning to D1. So kinda hard to say "YSU is a great home team" given their competition. So I think if CSU plays well and motivated that we should win tonight. The only result tonight that would surprise me is either team winning by double digits. It's probably gonna be a close game and CSU will have to play smart and motivated to win. One thing I would like to see is Jayson Woodrich get back on track from 3 point range. After starting 10-14 from 3 range in the first 3 games of the season, in the next 4 games he has gone ice cold and gone 4-14 from 3 point range. Would be nice if he was more consistent.

This is terrible. Turnovers, can’t rebound, and Enaruna not asserting himself.

Looking like a long season. The Vikes are being taken to the shed.

Hopefully we learn how to score against a zone… otherwise we won’t win many games cause everyone will zone us… this isn’t the first game we struggled against a 2-3 zone.

One of the uglier halves we’ve seen in a long time. I watched Lowder commit 3 turnovers in the first 2.5 minutes with my own eyes but the stat sheet says he only has 1. Lowder flipped a pass to Williams as Williams was falling to the ground and they credited the turnover to Williams, and on the next possession Lowder forced a no look pass into triple coverage that ricocheted off Smith’s fingers and Smith got credited with that turnover.
A Charles Barkley turrible for that entire performance, including the statistician.

We need to resolve the PG issue, this is insane. Saint Marys is going to kill us. The rest of HL is going to study this game.

This team blows. There is zero excuse to get blown out by 20+ to a very mediocre YSU team. What a disappointing 2 games @ EMU and @ YSU. I’m all out on Coach One Tone. What an embarrassment.

What a disaster, I had to turn it off. EMU, DUQ and now YSU? This is the worst I've seen them play. I can't believe what I just saw?

Someone should inspect the bus. I suspect exhaust fumes leaking into the passenger compartment.
Only if all games were home games.

4-3 in Division 1 games. Lifeless performances versus sub-300 Eastern Michigan and number 210 YSU. Consistently giving zero effort rebounding specifically offensive rebounding. Zero motivation for 2 games. Players mysteriously leaving the team (TJ Moss) and mysterious injuries (DeBrick).
This team has zero culture. I gave up on this season being anything. Direction of the program is totally rudderless.

This proformance was utterly baffling, YSU is know more talented than Canisius and definitely not talented as OU. I was in Shock when I saw the half time score. I had snacks ready and was looking forward to a competitive game. What a shocker. If this is not a wake up call to the team nothing is.Theee was zero effort, even the look on their faces they didn't care. YSU did their homework and was worked up ready to play. The Vikings weren't. This lose is squarely on Robinson, whose done a great job until now. Tristan needs to develop a killer instinct and take over. They better be ready for Detroit and circle the date on the calendar for the rematch with YSU. Gonna take a long time to wash the taste this lost out of your mouth.
