I think they are just good. They are 18-3 with a 15-point road win at Ole Miss & a 23-point home win over Vandy.

that will do it.

C USA is weak as a conference. 12th in rank the other day on sagarin, I believe.

Hell no. C-USA is a bottom-third DI league.

Middle Tennessee is just taking care of business.

I guess they are doing like we did during the Cal year.

Actually, C-USA is #21 and the AAC is #7.
The AAC has 7 teams in the Top 100, while C-USA only has 2, MTSU and LaTech at 100. C-USA has 8 teams worse than 200, 6 of which are worse than 250, so it is very weak.

However, Sagarin doesn't penalize you as much for beating bad team as the RPI calculation do, as long as you pound them like you should.

I'm So Glad we're in the AAC!

Brittany tried his best to bury CUSA, and he has succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.

CUSA also has a little ole Western Kentucky, who as all know, beat the living crap out of the Tigers in the Boca Bowl.

Not a bad basketball program itself under Stansbury going forward, but they're mediocre this season.

In basketball.

A symptom of the problem for CUSA. Their champ played our #5 team.

Temple, USF, Navy all at 7-1. Tulsa at 6-2. We were at 5-3 with Houston.

I'm more pissed at losing to them in the 93 NCAAs

Only one spot above ETSU and six above Belmont. We might be at 6BT soon.

Barely holding on to our 4BT position:
Tenn 55
Vandy 58
MTSU 64
MEMPHIS 76
ETSU 77
Belmont 81
Chatt 102
TSU 159
Lipscomb 184
UT-Martin 191
TnTech 264
APSU 293

looking at ETSU, that's odd. They've played two D2 schools as regular games.

I did not know that. I wouldn't be surprised if a Sagarin just ignores those D2 games.

they probably do. I just noticed Lees-Mcrae and Limestone on there.
