Little Rock and UTA (our 2 non-football members) are really carrying the banner of the Sun Belt now during bball season.

Who the hell is Bob Jones, and when did he get his own basketball team?
Cajuns and Warhawks is indeed the first conference game of the season. It was one of the Five league matchups this year that the conference left to individual teams to set.

Big week for us. Texas, while not at the top of their game, will always be a big game in any sport. We got 'em in baseball in the spring of 2015. Hopefully the fall of 2015 is next.
As for North Texas, 0-3 vs. DI, it will be a top three attended game this season and one that has been circled on the calendar even before the date was made.

We as a conference need to cut out the non D1 games or at least reduce them to 1. Games like ours vs Bob Jones tomorrow night are worthless and usually awful to watch

Uca is not a bob power house but it's about an hour from little rock. A little rock win would even the life time series with them.
Just win and move to 6-0 as we don't play a home game until like 1/6 of next year. The ooc reads like a swac team taking pay check games.

Those ooc games could all be winnable games. I don't mind the taking the paycheck mantra so to speak just win the games. You guys and UTA have surprised me thus far. Us and ULL haven't lived up to the part yet. Anyways if we could got 8-3 orbetterit would be awesome.

I agree, it's a lot of travel for Little Rock, but they could legitimately win almost all of those games.

ULM -64 UT-Chatanooga -54
Chattanooga was 5-1 with their only loss to #4 Iowa St. and wins over Georgia and Illinois. Nice OOC win.

Was it not Bob Jones University, which is a Christian university named after the founder, Bob Jones, Sr?

Didn't they just lose to a DII or DIII school?
Ordinarily, I'd love a good Roadrunner Stomp, but right now their basketball looks like it sucks worse than our football . . .

They aren't doing well.
But it's still UTSA... and we don't see them that often these days. Plus, they beat us last year

With tonight's line up of games, we've got an opportunity to really make some progress if we can win most of those games.
