The announcers from last night deserve a shout out. They were excellent.

I wanted to chime in here about use of “miracle,” at least from my perspective.
There were two schools of thought coming out of interviews with players last night and I even mentioned this to Brandon on our drive to Dayton. The first was the players almost expected this win because of the trials they went through last year. At the same time, the manner in which they won was nothing short of a miracle and they certainly seemed to embrace that after the game.
Chaney’s shot. Pettigrew’s return. McNair’s game winner, all a miracle. Winning the game? Not a miracle. Maybe it’s just splitting hairs.
I’ll end with this. If the arena was Assembly Hall instead of Mackey, and someone that didn’t have a M as first letter of last name, I’m probably not using “Miracle.”
Should not have used miracle. Miracle is a full-court heave. Valpo beat them and was the better team last night
