LT getting blown out at UTEP

Miners went off.

All the home teams won. It's so challenging to win on the road.

ODU picks up their 6th conference loss, while La Tech picks up its 5th loss.

Marshall can be scary good.

tomorrow is 1 vs. 2. If UAB wins, it is 1 vs 2 again Thursday vs Marshall. If Middle Tennessee wins, there will be a 3 way tie for first with Marshall playing at UAB and MTSU next week.

The good news is if we win the next two games, we have a two game lead with three games left.

Bad news is if we lose the next two, we could be looking at the third seed.

Tomorrow is big, that's for sure. Hopefully this week off and hanging with Brett Favre will have us ready to play our best game of the season. We shall see.

Assuming mtsu and Marshall lose at least one more game, I think we have a great shot at winning cusa. I'm pretty confident we will beat Marshall at home (it won't be easy, however). Even if we lose to mtsu, we will have the tie breaker as we will be 2-0 vs. Marshall. We have a 3 game lead now on la tech, so barring a major collapse by us, I don't think we have to worry about them. I think we have a very very good chance to win cusa if we win tomorrow, as Marshall will lose to either or
Both of us and mtsu..

Agreed. We need to a huge crowd for these last 2 home games.

And the not as bad news about looking at the third seed, is that it is the best timeslot for a large home crowd throughout the C-USA tournament.

Hmmm

Today's game should be the most difficult of the next 3. Marshall and WKU won't be easy, but at home we are very difficult to beat and I feel pretty good about our chances in the 2 after today. Win all 3 and UAB will lock up our 3rd CUSA regular season title.
