I rather play CCSU then Alabama Little House in the Prairie that nobody ever heard of. This game was actually a blessing because we just lost our starting Center Amida Brimah yesterday with a broken finger for at least 6 weeks.

No offense...but no one outside the little town where something called Central Connecticut State Univ is located in has every heard about it.

I, and maybe plenty of others, have heard of Alabama Little House in the Prairie before (strong spring sports, good women's lacrosse and rowing).*

I'm trying to figure out if this post is a joke or not.

SMU is 11-0 for the first time ever. Colorado was the best team we have played so far.

SMU won despite getting outscored 36-0 from 3 point line

that was a really nice win

That's a pretty cool stat.

Decided to bump this to include some of the more recent scores.

So far, the AAC overall is a combined 12-21 against teams from the six top-rated leagues (ACC, Big East, B1G, Big XII, PAC, SEC). The American itself is generally rated #7 after those six.

The league is a combined 6-9 against teams from the three next-highest leagues (A10, Mtn. West, Colonial), and 67-16 against teams from the other 22 leagues.

I believe #7 is to high, #9 in RPI behind the A-10 and CAA.

Point taken on RPI, although that's not the rating I used:

masseyratings.com/cb/compare.htm

Avg. ranking of:
AAC team: 113.50
A10 team: 114.96
Colonial team: 142.54
MWC team: 142.96

out of 351 total Division I teams

So the AAC didn't do very well,ok then.

And in the latest bracketology the mighty AAC is a one bid league, UConn.

I like nbc sports - they are using the term exempted not banned from the tournament
