GB Press Gazette Article

Checking out the stories from around the globe, I stumbled upon this from the GB Press Gazette.

"“I think both teams deserve TV slots,” UWGB coach Tod Kowalczyk said. “We’re clearly the two best teams in the league. If you look at the teams in (the Bracket Buster), we’re one of the best 22 teams in it. So we deserve a TV game.”

At least one person at ESPN agrees with Kowalczyk. Andy Katz, who covers college basketball for the network and writes a daily column on its website, wrote on Thursday that one TV game appears set: UTEP at Pacific. Katz then suggested Western Michigan at UWGB for one of the other marquee games."

One of the 22 best? Maybe, IMO. I think a TV game for UWGB is more for Western MI (if that is who they end up playing.

we really need to administer another beat down on this GB team. i swear they're living in some fantasy world in terms of how good they are. i don't mean to disrespect them because they're ok, but there's nothing marquee about them. there's a reason they're not even sniffing the mid-major top 25.

that said, i think it will be a tough game this saturday when you consider the panthers are coming off of an emotional win and GB will be out for blood after their humiliation at the hands of UWM the first time around. but a loss up their would be a major upset and a step backwards for milwaukee.
