[Loca5174]

So I was real busy at work today so I’m just starting the thread and will post normal content when I get home in an hour or so.

Today we have charlotte. We beat them there just like UAB. Hopefully we have a better result than we did with the blazers. Today is the first day of global domination.

Doesn’t matter.
We pissed off a 21 1st half lead at home and won by 5.
NIT if we get lucky.

we are favored our last 4 games so 13-5 and 25-6 is that guaranteed an at large regardless how we do in our final 2 games

At large was done for after we lost to UAB. We have to win the conference tournament to dance. We are 0-1 in Q1 and 3-3 in Q2.

 

[I.I.]

At large was done for after we lost to UAB. We have to win the conference tournament to dance. We are 0-1 in Q1 and 3-3 in Q2.

It has been fixed for the big conferences for one Q-1 win to get you in. Ohio State is 0-8 in quad one and still in or near in in all brackets.

 

[Loca5174]

Well it wasn’t pretty but we got the win and the start of WORLD DOMINATION is in effect. Tragic that ECU couldn’t finish off Wichita State last night. Conference Tournament is 3 weeks away.

How are they in quad 2 though?

 

[I.I.]

How are they in quad 2 though?

Much better. Dayton is 4-0 in quad 2 and nowhere near the bubble though with no quad 1 wins. But Dayton is like Tulsa and not in a respected conference.

Pretty effin gross!

6-1 So very good 11-1 quads 2 and 3.

 

[libertychamp]

Guess I’ll be a Memphis fan tonight.

The sad thing is, we can win out, and USF loses to Memphis twice, home and away, and we still finish in a tie with USF, who gets the 1 seed due to head-to-head matchups with us. No one left on usf schedule can beat them.

I don’t see much if any difference between and 1 and 2.

 

[drboobay]

I don’t see much if any difference between and 1 and 2.

Memphis is falling apart tonight.

 

[I.I.]

If this Memphis continues, they might not make the top 10. USF looking like a shoo/in for NCAA.

 

[libertychamp]

You mean if usf loses to us in the finals are they going to get an at large bid for sure.

 

[drboobay]

Really? I don't think their resume is great though.

 

[Loca5174]

Really? I don't think their resume is great though.

You mean if usf loses to us in the finals are they going to get an at large bid for sure.

They are 2-2 in Q1 and 4-3 in Q2. They need us to win out to keep their 2 Q1 wins. For them to have a shot at an at large bid they will have to win out and get to the finals of the conference tournament. That still might not be enough though. Currently USF and Tulsa are listed as long shots. I don’t think that will change in 3 weeks but it could especially if they destroy Memphis.

6-5 versus the top is not bad. Any quad 4 or lower division losses? That would really hurt them.

 

[drboobay]

I would not be surprised if USF passes us in the NET based on their performance tonight. It is hard to move several spots so late but they are scoring at a high clip and winning by a large margin against a team with a decent ranking. Albeit at home.

I fully expect them to coast us tomorrow after a 21 point beat down. They have three Q3 losses and no Q4 losses.

 

[drboobay]

I fully expect them to coast us tomorrow after a 21 point beat down. They have three Q3 losses and no Q4 losses.

Honestly they probably deserve it and that isn't a criticism of Tulsa at all. It would be a real shame if Tulsa and USF are not playing in the title game.

I’m selfish. I would be quite happy if TU isn’t playing USF in the title game

I guess I took my fan hat off in a weak moment there.

I too would like the easiest possible path for Tulsa.

[I.I.]

South Florida looks a lock for 1st and Wichita #2 if they can win at Memphis. Tulsa's best chance is 3 or 4. WSU has a tiebreaker over us. But funny things happen on the road in the American so this year all bets off. Our road games with ECU and Tulane will be tough.

South Florida looks a lock for 1st and Wichita #2 if they can win at Memphis. Tulsa's best chance is 3 or 4. WSU has a tiebreaker over us. But funny things happen on the road in the American so this year all bets off. Our road games with ECU and Tulane will be tough.

They have to get past Temple and FAU as well. I wouldn't discount those roadblocks, and feel like they will get through this last segment of their conference schedule unscathed. We definitely have a chance to finish up the last four games one better than them. Won't be easy, but it won't be impossible.
