Weird how the RPIs are so dramatically different from site to site. realtime rpi has Memphis with an RPI of 29
(correction: as was pointed out in another thread, that's power rankings, not rpi. No more posting before coffee for me!)
I'm looking forward to Southern Miss @ LaTech
Point spread: USM @ Tech -4
Tigers are 25 point favorites at the moment according to ESPN.
With C-USA teams having better RPI's in 7 of the 8 games, this could be a disaster day if we (C-USA) don't take care of business. With 6 home games and 2 road games, I am hoping for a 5-1 for the home games and a split with the road games. Sorry Tulane, nothing personal but I hope USM is the road team win. Would be nice to go 8-0 but that is tough no matter who we play. Good luck to all as tip-offs start in a little over 1 hour.
If Memphis continues the play from Weds night, they should win by 30 +.
12:00 PM Memphis (107) host Austin Peay (298)
12:05 PM Tulsa (229) host TCU (188)
Both Memphis and Tulsa get the Win to get CUSA off to a good start today
Bringing 10 with me tonight for USM @ LaTech
5:00 PM Houston (176) host Texas Southern (222)
6:00 PM Marshall (276) host Coppin State (287)
Both Houston and Marshall down 7 with around 10 minutes to go....2nd half Houston....1st half Marshall
Houston will lose tonight. Mike Davis has a very good team with above SWAC talent.
Both TSU and Coppin State are 1-7 - although as Bama just said, TSU in particular is much better than the record and has played a very tough schedule. I wish I could gloat but we're just not in a position to do so this year. Last year would have been a different story.

Houston hits a 3 with under 10 seconds to send game to OT

Houston wins by 3 in OT. 3-0 on the day with 5 more to go!
Marshall trailing Coppin State in 2nd half.
Now Marshall is back even at 46 all.
Hope Marshall gets things going again. CUSA needs them to be good.
Now Marshall is back down.
6:00 PM Marshall (276) host Coppin State (287)
Marshall gets the win in a game that was close until the end. CONGRATS Marshall. In the end, a Win is a WIN!!!
4-0 with 4 to go. A great day so far CUSA!

we don't have a point guard, and the entire team seems to be in a shooting slump...
Don't expect much from us this year...
