I figured about 8. I just hope we don't play like the ladies did last night and get blown out. Really hard to predict what will happen at Diddle. It's the only "real" college basketbal environment in the conference. Although we should have one on Saturday, March 1st, if the game against ASU is meaningful in regard to us getting a top 4 seed.

Right now I'm not worried about a top 4 seed. I just want to get into the tournament.

At times it is a "real" environment. Against GA St it was a tomb.

If it's between finishing 8th or 9th, I'd just as well save the money. The goal should be a top 4 seed, which doesn't seem unreasonable this season. Of course, I didn't expect Troy to be a factor and it now looks like they will be.

Line in the paper is 9.5. That seems a little more accurate. I'd probably take the line figuring WKU will win by 10+. Hope I am wrong. The home loss to Troy pretty much destroyed the optimism I had after a 3-0 start. If we can win in Diddle tonight, my optimism will quickly return.
