Yep, that same team that lost to NAIA Texas College beat the mighty North Texans tonight in the Cajun Dome! Oh well, so much for power houses.

Just a good memory MG61...enjoy your night sir...I know I will.

I was there. The better team won tonight. I could tell after five minutes of play that UNT would have a tough game and probably lose. I was right. Congratulations ULL.

In bounds base line plays killed UNT tonight! NT has better talent of course, but I thought Johnny Jones was out coached tonight. A good recruiting class or two and Marlin will have the Cajuns back in the thick of it. Thanks

Hurts, but the better team tonight clearly won.

There is an 8-0 team called Florida Atlantic!

And how many conference championships in basketball does this "power house" FAU have?

FAU is succeeding in the vacuum that WKU has left behind.

Well I would say we are a "Power House" this season and probably seasons to come. (mind you we still have a couple tough road games coming up with NT & Denver, but other wise should be smooth sailing.)

We can still win the West(I doubt we can catch FAU for best overall record), but that loss stings. Need to take it to Denver on Saturday.


Well done for ULL. Marlin is gonna turn that ship around in no time.

Thanks CMJ, the lack of talent and injuries have killed this team. They are finally starting to get Marlin's system, with not much talent. This is a guy that won 25 games last year, so losing is not something he has had to deal with in the past. We think we have one of the better coaches in the conference. Now he need to add more talent to his roster before UL can be called relevant again.

FAU does not have an easy schedule the rest of the year, and I would hardly describe it as smooth sailing. For NT to have any chance of catching FAU, we are going to have to end on the same sort of streak we ended with last year. I think it was 8 straight games. My guess is FAU will go 5-3 in the last 8 games, so NT can't lose.

We have 4 home and 4 away and we have been playing well on the road, we already beat Troy and USA... and with our current streak I'd say we go 6-2 at WORST... 7-1 most likely and dream for 8-0 to finish PERFECT!!!


Anyways... GO OWLS!!!

If you can go 6-2 than you'd be guaranteed a NIT birth.

Quick trivia.

Anyone guess who was the last Sun Belt team to go undefeated in conference? Bonus points if you can name the year.

Hmm...I see FAU losses @UNT, @Denver, and one of the two against FIU. The game against WKU tomorrow is dangerous as well. I could be very wrong though.
