Two Takeaways: 1. Cincinnati has to play much better to advance in the NCAA Tournament 2. Tulsa is a legitimate potential bid stealer in the American Conference.

Houston 81-28 with 9 minutes to go. Slick Texas Southern rims. I thought that was a misprint.
We win the last 2 and we’re locked.
Memphis and us both lose one and we’re locked.
We lose one and Memphis wins out it’s a tiebreaker scenario.
I hope Memphis holds the lead. If they do it is likely UCONN doesn’t win another regular season game. And the team that is bad because they’re in such a terrible conference will end up 6-12 in conference play.
UCONN should never lose at home to a depleted Memphis team. Ollie should quit on the spot if that happens.
Haha yeah but recruits won’t want to play teams like Tulsa... it has NOTHING to do with uconn being a lower tier conference team.
Just imagine how great UCONN would be if today they were playing NC State (5th place ACC) or Providence (5th place Big East) right now instead of lowly Memphis (5th place AAC).
I bet they’d STILL be losing by 20 right now?!?!?!?!?!

Rothstein said really nice things about us in the studio after the game was over. They also complained about us not fouling but I was good with that. I didn’t want them to cover the spread.
Tubby would love to overtake us in 4th. We need to win out.
Now that we have the voice, we are the Hamburglar.
Let’s just beat ECU and temple and finish the number 4 seed. Then steal that bid

This is what makes Houston so dangerous. 4-5 quality outside shooters. Not sure what works against them. Press Gray with the ball high and make him get rid of it and take you chances. They don’t have much in terms of inside presence (offense or defense) but they shoot the ball so well. Need to play a Hoosier offense, take the air out of the ball, long possessions. Lots of ball movement. Make them play a lot of defense and move and hopefully tire their legs out.
Regarding Houston....closely guard the perimeter in man and have a rim protector on the back end. Length will give them issues. They are obviously a bad matchup for us.
