That makes more sense, but watching it on TV I thought the clock was fine. I think the shot went in right around a second. Sometimes the TV clock and the in-arena clock aren't the same, though, so he's probably right. 1.7 gives you a dribble or maybe two but still awfully tough to get a shot off with that.

Either way, tough way to lose a game.

Regardless....great job by the Toppers!! You sure made us proud in the SBC!!

Gratz toppers.

Especially cause I think you guys were in a "rebuilding" year.

If thats your rebuild, I'd hate to see what you guys are gonna do to SBC competition when your loaded with seniors.

WKU reloads obviously.....

Thanks for all of the well-wishes everyone! I sincerely hope that the Sun Belt can produce two teams into the tournament next year. I'm hoping that WKU's performance can bring up the level of the rest of the teams. It's evident this year that most teams are getting better and can play high a high level.

Also, last year proved that, when deserving, the Sun Belt can get two into the tournament. I'd love for us to consistently get 2 into the dance, with a 3rd coming during deserving years.

We've talked over on the Haven about what teams look to be strong next year in the Sun Belt, and several teams return so much, which should make the conference pretty good going forward. Now, if we could just get this scheduling stuff pointed in the right direction!
