Was the championship game changed to be played on Saturday evening for the sake of tv?

Yeah. And to cool off the Marshall shooters

The only reason they were on at 10:30 was for CBS national network.

Game thread on main board getting entertaining. Marshall fans crying about refs. La Tech fans joining in. Whiners United.

Apparently the reason why a lot of teams are losing lately.

The game announcers mentioned Alabama as the home of those MTSU players from Athens and B'ham more than once.

Which is a better situation for C-USA perception:

MTSU winning the C-USA Tournament, getting a better seed, and having a better chance at making a run in the NCAA Tournament

OR

MTSU loses to Marshall, gets a 14 or below at-large seed, Marshall gets the auto bid at the 15 or 16. Marshall has a very difficult shot to advance, and MTSU's path gets harder than it would have been otherwise.


At large teams don't get seeded any worse than 12. I don't think MTSU would have gotten in with a loss. Marshall would have been 15-16 seed. I think the lowest ranked RPI team this year is 204. I could be wrong on that did a quick glance last night.
