From JCT's scouting report (which was excellent as usual):
"Keeping Toledo off the line is one of the best strategies to beat them—they’re 5-3 in games where they have more free throw attempts than their opponents, but 0-3 when opponents get more trips to the line."
They've already had 10 attempts!!!

Trailing by 11 after spotting Toledo 19 consecutive points in the middle of the 1st half. It's going to take a miracle to get back in this.

We're playing poorly and the refs aren't helping by calling extremely ticky tack fouls on us

All it takes is a couple of threes and some good defense. But I'm worried about the foul trouble. Richardson already has 3!

Not a miracle, just have to defend without fouling. Although with these refs maybe that would be a miracle. The last foul on Ben was absurd.

The trouble IS Mid America refs !! Living where I do, I see a lot of them. They ARE homers no question. That is why I reported earlier that our present success stared with oue wi AT Kent St. We overcame rge problem then and we could do it again in Toledo--BUT we must play better

Back to weak defense and silly fouls. Toledo driving to the basket at will.

This is frustrating! We're getting plenty of opportunities to close the gap, but we're not converting! Their guy Taylor has 4 fouls...that should help.
