Temple and Murray St. both should have gotten into NCAA Tournament

Yep, Temple is going to be tough probably the best team in the field and Murray State is hitting their stride.

They were by far the best team in their conference tourney and lost. They are a really solid basketball team and if they come from any p5 conference, they would have made the tourney.

They wouldn't have had that record if they came from a P5 conference and that's why they got left out.

Flawed logic. No one knows what record they would have had in any other conference. But we do know what record they do have and that they are playing good basketball there. Its gonna be a tough game for ODU, would love to see 2 CUSA teams in New York.

Let's go Dawgs, let's go Monarchs, let's meet in NY.

How is Freeman doing? Will he be able to play tomorrow?

Another game time decision. Makes sense, gotta keep'em on their toes.

Are both games on TV?

I think ESPN 2?

Yup. Both will be on ESPN 2.

Tech/Temple will face Miami in the semifinals

If they were in a P5 conference, they would have gotten in with 18 wins, which they would have gotten.

Switch the name Iowa State with them and play the same schedule (I know it's impossible but it's speculation any way) and they are a 11 seed at worst.

The logic is not flawed at all. As a Marshall fan you should be very familiar with the argument.

I agree it will be a tough game and that they are playing good basketball.

Let's do tonight guys! I'm ready for a Dawgs/Monarchs rematch in NYC!

It's not flawed logic. The OVC was not a good conference this year. It just wasn't. Now, that doesn't mean Murray St. isn't good, but to assume they'd also dominate a better conference isn't logical. You're allowed to compare and contrast the relative strengths and weaknesses of the other conferences.

NC-Central went undefeated in their conference. I feel pretty safe in saying they wouldn't have done so in CUSA.

Go ODU and LA Tech!

Good luck, ODU!

Yep. Would LOVE to see an ALL-CUSA FINAL in Madison Square Garden. Go DAWGS, and Monarchs.

I would love to see a Monarch/Dawgs championship game! Go Conf USA!!

That would be a tremendous image boost for the conference
