I came into this game expecting an easy day for the Spartans. After all, this was a home game against Bowling Green, a team from the MAC who had losses to Southern Miss and Davidson to begin the season. In fact, they were 1-2 with their win coming against an NAIA level team, the Taylor Trojans. It just had the feel of a comfortable game. Naturally, that is not what happened and I spent much of this game with a good deal of anxiety.
Of course, the story from the onset of the game was the change to the starting lineup, with Jaxon Kohler getting the nod at power forward in place of Xavier Booker.
