Up one at Dayton with three seconds to go, here's how Ball State
coughed that up. Egad.

Ball State got blown out last night in Norman, but OU might be
really good. 100-plus points in back-to-back games to start the
season, including 60 in the first half against BSU.
The offense revolves around Persons, who led the team in points,
assists, steals, three-point FG% and minutes as a freshman. He’s
6-3 and a thick 220 pounds; with some pretty good size all
around, I’d imagine that McKenzie and Iroegbu may draw him. He
started his career at Northern Kentucky and earned conference
ROY, but left when the coach got shown the door. He had interest
from Purdue and Xavier but chose Ball State. I expect that he
will be a handful.
His highlight reel from last year:

/>Good, not incredible.
They've gotten a good jolt from their bench in the first two
games. Considering the lopsided OU result, it's hard to gauge
who played the meaningful minutes and who played in garbage
time, but Walker led the way with 23 against OU, and BSU got 31
bench points in the Dayton game, or 40 percent of their
production. All this has been without much help from Trey Moses,
who was second last year in minutes and tops on the glass but is
recovering from a back injury.
44 percent of Ball State's shot attempts have come from three,
which is right around last year's clip. They went 21-13 overall
last year and 11-7 in conference, falling to IPFW in the first
round of the CIT last year; a year earlier they won 21 games,
bowing out in the CIT quarters against Columbia. after winning a
combined 12 games in 2013-14 and 2014-15.

Sounds like we may have a chance in this one . Cant start slow
or collapse in the last 3 minutes . Need a win with Michigan
St. on Sunday .

I think we have more than a chance. I say we get this one.

WE have to drive to the basket more if we stand a chance to win.
Cant always live by the 3 ball.. Ball st. lost their last game
because they couldnt defend the paint. Hopefully Boals and staff
saw that and exploit it..

Gigantic spot for Almonacy with two early fouls on McKenzie.

6 points so far for Almonacy. I'll take it.. Actually, I think
he has a breakout game tonight with McKenzie sitting on the
bench until the 2nd half.. Almonacy needs to break out of his
shell with a big game.

I'm for them shooting a good number of threes, but it's bad when
you can't remember the last two they attempted.
22 shots, 12 of them from three. This would make more sense
against a team like Maryland where good looks inside are
difficult to come by, but that's not Ball State.
No shots by Ty with four minutes left in the first.

Really interesting that Boals is going with Iroegbu at the
point. I like the move. Olaniyi on Persons, who is killing us.

This is a winnable game that we are losing. They are not
intimidating. We need more composer.
