To call it bloody Saturday would be a stretch, but going 2-5 wasn’t what MAC hoops needed. There were some good efforts that ended up short, so from that perspective, it wasn’t a total loss. However, this day mirrored the MAC pre-conference season. It’s been a disappointment. At least it has been if you are hoping for 2 or more MAC schools in the big dance.
IUPUI Jaguars 73- Ball State Cardinals 62
Ball State went cold. It happens in basketball games. After being up by 11 early in the second half, Ball State stopped being able to score.
