I didn't see a post yet. 4 games on the slate tonight.
.
All active, at half or in second half.
Wake Forest 76 - Charlotte 49 - 4:00 to go. Ouch !!
Marshall 65 - UTC 64 - approx. 1:50 to go. Need this one.
FGCU 49 - FAU 44 - approx. 15 min to go second half.
UAB 41 - Troy 40 @ half, can't afford many SBC loses.

Marshall wins 70-66 in a very weird game but we got the win.

MU went 1-16 from the 3pt line and still found a way to win the game. We definitely play a different style of ball this season, but at least we found a way to win.

FAU 90, FGCU 85, 1:30 left. Would be nice to send FGCU to 0-3 against CUSA.

Nice win FAU

Good comeback Herd

Oh... We won?

UAB over Troy...... good stuff

FAU starting to look like a decent team, stop some of the stupid mistakes and could be dangerous

ENCOURAGING night for C-USA. Keep it going.

UAB is 10-0 vs Troy. No worries

CUSA went 3-1 today.

YUGGGE

Does anyone know our out of conference record so far? Last year I believe we were around .500 or lower. We sure didn’t help.

We were 66-89 last season

Wow still ten games under .500. Goal would be get to .500 and go from there.

Evans at FIU probably needs to go.

Wow. We were way worse than I thought and I thought under .500. We’ve had several of our guys lose some close ones too. We could be right at .500 if a couple of those went our way.

Much better than last year so far. We go on a 2 game road trip after finals this week. I’ll honestly be happy with a split. We’re barely favored over Ohio but it’s our first true road game. We’ll be a heavy underdog to a Wisconsin having a down year. They’ll be ready to take out some frustration on us. There’s a chance we have our 2 players back by then. I’ve been very pleased with our year so far. These guys will keep us in every game unless we just don’t show up on defense some night.

Everyone talking smack about how great the Sun Belt was in hoops over us can cease and desist now. They’ve returned back to their level.

I haven't looked at any teams schedule but usually mid Dec till conference play start schools schedule more winnable games and at home. So hopefully we can get that win % up to around 50%

If Western plays anywhere close to the way we have the last few games and stay out of foul trouble....Wisconsin is very winnable. But we will see how this team reacts on the road.

We chose to go to the Wisconsin basketball game over the bowl game. Still slight chance we make both but driving to Wisconsin and back then leave the next day for a 12 hour drive might be too much for my back.

Yeah after we play Auburn on Saturday, we've got Alabama A&M, New Orleans, and Miss Valley St. W's but terrible for RPI.

Dude, if you make those two trips back to back you deserve the WKU Congressional Medal of Honor! Lol. I would normally be going to the Orlando bowl game as that’s a chance to visit all my family down there but my youngest son and his wife are coming up from Jacksonville to do early Christmas with them. I’d get crucified if I left.

I think we have a shot at Wiscy just because Darius Thompson keeps everything cool out there. Our scoring is so spread out somebody will score for us. We just have to continue to play dee. As far as Numbnuts, even he has a chance against Ga State. Could be a good weekend for us.

I swear I'm more worried about the Ohio Bobcats than da Badgers. I guess it is because I expect to win against Ohio and a loss to Wisconsin will be less difficult to accept. I get more nervous about games were a win is expected than ones were you are supposed to lose. This years Wisconsin team is not as good as usual although Ethan Happ is a Frank Kaminsky clone.
