Yea! Belmont has owned us having won 7 of the last 8. MT dominated the Bruins. Bout Damn time!

Well, we have to do something if we're going to help ODU's at-large prospects.

Ivory played in spots and looked good. I think the fact he is back spurred Copeland who played very well, scored and distributed the ball better than I have seen all season.

Way to go MT!!! Congratulations!!!

Don't worry, we tend to cheer for you too. Most of the time. Good news, we got revenge for them beating you all earlier this year. Woo! Go CUSA!

Great win by MT

We appreciate the effort. Congrats on the win.

TOPSTRAIGHT,

Very classy post. Thanks! I was at the CUSA championship game and actually went on the field after you guys won it with my buddy who went to WKU. We can get along when we want to. :-)

Oh my - as others have said, it's amazing how good we can look with a PG. This team is legit.

Tech could have their hands full against Southern tonight. They've already beat Miss St and took Memphis down to the wire.

Perspective: It would be one of the best RPI wins for the league this year. :/

Go Tech.

I know we will have our hands full. Playing at home helps, but maybe we can pull it off. Need the RPI bump.

Congrats, MT! Very good win for MT and CUSA.

We seem good this year. Hopefully our crowds will keep increasing. We had 5.5k with only a few students last night. UAB and WKU should be great atmospheres... Unfortunately we have Trevecca coming up which is always a snooze fest.

It's no mistake the best two teams thus far (UAB and Middle) are returning the most experienced players. Top 6 players per MPG for each team returned. January 3rd will be a battle in Birmingham.

UAB took care of a bad USC-Upstate squad in dramatic fashion. We are back to tournament form for the start of the C-USA schedule. Fair warning.

that is good to hear from UAB - we need all of our good teams to be good as soon as possible.

I've watched a lot of Tech games this year and Hamilton is such a stud. He may be the best all around offensive player in CUSA this year.

Other than maybe Freeman, no other CUSA player has the skills Hamilton has that could translate to the next level.
