AAC Tourney...
- Thread starter TU Sepp
- Start date
Horne and Jackson are giving it all they got to play one more game each day
UCF almost gets beat at the buzzer again because they can’t make their free throws
Quarterfinals are today. the second game of each session will start 20 minutes after the conclusion of the first game or the scheduled start time whichever is later.
Great games yesterday. They were all close. the biggest margin of victory was Cincinnati over ECU but it was close most of the game. Tulsa won its first tournament game since the 2016-2017 season. Two years ago when the pandemic hit, Tulsa was the co champs and the 3 seed in the tournament. They would have faced ECU or Memphis. That year we were beating both of those teams. Then we would face Houston who we had split with. The 2020 season could have been special if not for the pandemic.
NET Movements
Houston - Down 1
Cincinnati - Up 2
Tulane - Down 2
Temple - Even
Tulsa - Up 11
SMU - Up 1
UCF - Up 1
Memphis - Even

Willie Nelson’s “ Highway Man “ lyrics are what Haith has been singing since yesterday , “ But I am still alive “
Not looking too good for Houston. Down five just before halftime, and Houston is in major foul trouble. Five of their 8 players have 2 fouls. Cincinatti has looked like the aggressor due to their foul trouble, and playing w/ chip on their shoulder. We'll see how much they can avoid fouls second half, and still be aggressive.
Naw, Northwestern is going to fire Chris Collins (32-52 last 3 seasons) and Haith's buddy Gragg is going to offer him a job there.
Why take all those threes though. If that is the only game you have then you are doomed 70 percent of the time
This is going to be one of those knock down drag out games. Finesse is not in their vocabulary. And I'm not really sure how either of these teams finished as high as they did. Tulane's conference record was 10-8 and they had some huge wins. Temple just looked like a bad team whenever I saw them.
He needs to reign it in a little bit. No shots in the first 10 seconds of the shot clock unless it is a layup.
It’s going to be a tough night. SMU has already had 2 threes that hit the back of the rim, bounced off the top of the backboard and fell through. Also that foul earlier on Chapman was a clean strip.
