No.

Exactly. Head to head is a terrible way to determine the better team, especially with a sample size as large as 31 games.

In conference is a push. Head to head is the tie breaker.

Conference record has no sway to the selection committee. Only overall record, big wins, bad losses, overall strength of schedule, and RPI. It's not just one thing or another, but the overall resume. If you want to think you're better than ODU then go ahead. I'd assume much of your fanbase agrees with you, but there aren't very many outside of your fanbase that would.

Perhaps the tournament will settle it.

You are much more concise than I.

Just doing a little jabbing before the tournament. After all, there doesn't seem to be a big dance in the cards for either of us.

I don't think anyone can beat Louisian Tech.

Why do you hate me so much?

I'm just having an honest discussion here.

I think UTEP deserves to be in the conversation about an at large bid as much as ODU does.

I don't see anything wrong with that.

Fit's not so bad. A bit dilusional at times, but cut him some slack. He is effective.

Well, we are conversing about it. Unfortunately for UTEP, we are likely the only ones. (And believe me, I would love to see it happen, it just won't.)

Extremely unimpressed with CUSA Champs by 2 games. I guess you're probably just unimpressed with Kentucky

I like UTEP and think ODU got as miserable a draw as possible. Kenpom just released his Log5 with ODU as the favorite to win the C-USA autobid on Saturday http://kenpom.com/blog/index.php/weblog/..._usa_log52

Big difference between extremely unimpressed and just unimpressed
