MAC Men’s Basketball Recap: Akron Zips at Northern Illinois Huskies

At some point, Akron would have to let the world know they are human. The Huskies led 47-33 at the half.

The scary part if you are an Akron fan, the Huskies hit 44% of their shots, and 50% of their 3 pointers, and only had 5 turnovers, at the half.. That doesn’t seem likely that the Zips will pull out the win.

The Huskies were killing the Zips on the boards, too, holding a 19-10 edge. Couple that with great shooting and fantastic bench play, and that’s how the Zips were down at the half.

At the start the second half, Akron got a bunch of good looks, and missed them all.
