I do not anticipate App State to keep up its 120PPG average on Thursday.

Good week for the conference to show out, or at least hopefully not embarrass ourselves.

And yes, the battle for the real Louisiana should be an annual game, I know they played last year too.

I see 4 sun belt wins tonight. Hope I’m right

Asking Little Rock to beat Memphis a few days after they lost to D2 Ouachita Baptist is probably asking a little too much.

Otherwise, yes. Big Games for the league tonight and this week. App's going to get a shot at a P5 on a court they play on every year, plus a fellow G5. AState gets a shot at a team that's been at the top of the MAC recently, Texas State, Coastal, and Georgia State all get shots at weak CUSA teams. And South at LaSalle is sneaky tough.

Yeah I don't see Little Rock beating Memphis, but 3-1 tonight is the goal.

oops. posted on the other thread..but Georgia State whupped Rice 75-54.

Not in conference, but Liberty beat Wake by 13 tonight. I still think GS is gonna be really good, but Wake is very, very bad.

Great win over CUSA

Coastal let's a late lead slip

Little Rock led Memphis for almost 35 minutes! Unfortunately, Memphis finished stronger and won 70 - 62.

AState's Women shock about every person who follows the program and goes to Gainsville and knocks off Florida tonight.

Head to #22 South Florida in a couple days after playing @ Indiana to open the season and getting torn apart.

Midway through the first, Bobcats down by 2 to UTSA . .

34-32 UTSA at the half, Bobcats close out the first half with a 5 minute scoring drought.

Cats shot a whopping 35% to UTSA's 44%

Midway through the second half roadrunners by 1

Tyler Blount keeping the Cats in it. . .

2:08 to go, Bobcats with a 7 point lead.

Lose again. At least we are consistent.

Final 79-78 roadrunners, Bobcats snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, great game by Tyler Blount in a losing effort.

Bobcats open the new year 0-2. . . . .

Im past sick of this conference... Belt refs screwed us in the last seconds of a rivalry game. Like wtf??

Umm...Those are not necessarily Sun Belt refs. Basketball conferences all share officials.

Don't matter where the refs were from . . . This game never should have come down to an officials call in the final minutes . . .

If we hadn't shot a paltry 35% in the first half, if we hadn't closed out the last 5 minutes of the first half without scoring, if we'd hit 1 or 2 more of our free throws in the final 2 minutes, we win, period.
