Who you got?

Both teams have won eight of their last 10. UAB defeated the Raiders (who were without leading scorer Giddy Potts) by nine in Birmingham.

A UAB win puts them in the drivers seat with only four to play.

An MT wins creates a tie at the top of the standings. (Marshall could also earn a tie here if they beat both Charlotte and ODU).
Any UAB fans coming up? Heard you guys were bringing a few buses. Should be a nice showcase for CUSA basketball (TV CBSSN). I'm expecting a pretty good crowd for us Sunday afternoon - 8k at least.

I like us at home. MT by 3 in OT.
Have to figure MT in this one. If we can get it together and play a solid 40 minutes on the road, which we've yet to do, then maybe we can pull it out but thats a big IF. Either way I think it will be a good came for the most part. I think the conference will be decided on the last road trip for both of us.
I'm going to do an extensive write up on the match up Friday.

These two teams are very evenly matched when they have their full rosters. Upshaw and Lee are the most talented forwards in the league along with James Kelly and Jeremy Combs.
Like the Blazers, but I have to pull for Middle since it gives us the best chance at a share of the title.
as a Tech fan, I will pull for MT this game. This will make the remaining games a lot more interesting for everyone.

A lot of ball left to be played. Should be a fun three weeks.

I don't know what the crowd will look like. I'd hope we would have more than 10,000 with how we're playing but no one seems to care that much about it. Sad times.
UAB's not very good. MT players and staff need to concentrate on that Hundred Miles of Hate thingy coming up next week.

If you lose you go to third. We're only half a game behind and we have the head to head vs you as of now.

Depends on what you do Thursday and Saturday. You play both before we play UAB.

We can split with them, and you lose to UAB, and you're still 3rd from tiebreaker. I like our chances. But it will really come down to playing you guys and UAB on the road in the last couple games. We've got Tech and USM at home for the very last two. It's still way up in the air. Sucks there is no TV for the MTSU and UAB games vs Marshall. Top three teams meeting back to back to back and nothing.
I'll be making the trip.

I am glad two of the three are in The Glass House.

Do you know where you'll be sitting? J and K behind the basket are the main away sections. Still sounding like 2 buses plus any other stragglers?
I don't know yet. I got my tickets ordered through the Alumni Society. Not riding the bus. Driving myself up and meeting up with my nephew, an MTSU grad.

You'll probably be in J or K then. I think that's where the Alumni Society tickets are going or so I've heard. It's gonna be a fun one. Hope you like our renovations to the Murphy Center if you haven't seen them yet. It definitely feels a lot better in terms of atmosphere. And hopefully it will be full!
I'll be traveling up with my Dad Sunday, not on the bus. From what I hear, we'll be bringing 2 bus loads, plus the rest of us driving up. I was able to get a couple of seats in Section J, in between two big blocks of unavailable seats.
