I'll take both the favorites but I will say UCF has been playing some teams tougher than I thought they would this season. I hope they don't get any good bigs in the near future or it could be a really tough game.

Yes UCF has been one of the toughest games Tulsa has played in conference. At least on the road.

Yes it was, but part of that was Tulsa trying to coast in the second half and UCF getting hot from the 3 point line. UCF has been a tough team at home though.

Ucf won't be a gimme game at home. We played them tight already at temple.

Well if the league has aspirations of sending more than 2 or 3 teams to the big dance we need Temple to win all 4 of these and get back on the radar. I agree though @UCF and Tulane are certainly not gimmes anymore.

I'm not counting any game as an easy win for Temple right now especially with Will Cummings banged up still, but yeah obviously 4-0 is a must for any chance of an at large

That Kansas blowout will look good to the committee if they add a decent conference record and sub 50 RPI.

39-20 Owls at the half

Obligatory tourist cheesesteak shot

UCF is down 33-39 at halftime. Not bad considering UCONN shot 10-17 from the 3 point line in the first half.

50-56 uconn with 6:48 left to play. Knights are hanging around

Ok

Favorites win tonight, that's two days straight.

Our perimeter d killed us. Uconns three ball was on point. We dominated the glass but didn't convert when we needed to. This team is better and will get better as we had talent this year and in 2016. I expect 2016 to be a tourney year. Btw thanks to the Tulsa fans for pointing out that we don't suck.....that bad. We played a lot of close games. Looking forward to seeing uc in person

UCF looked good tonight against UConn, it won't be an easy game for Cincy when we play. Houston outplayed UC for a half, they lost but it showed what their capable of.

Good learning experience for McBride tonight...which is what he needs to take his game to the next level.

While he had a nice double-double in 21 mins of play...he was contested on both ends of the court...too slow on defensive ends on some pick and rolls and drives to the lane where Brimah had multiple slam dunks...to working hard on the offensive end (giving guards targets to get ball inside) but he had multiple shots blocked...went 3-13 from the field (several were very good looks) while he lead UCF from the FT line (perfect 5-5).

I think tonight's game in particular...with Donnie trying to give him more minutes...McBride knows if he continues to work hard (especially this off-season and hopefully he can stay healthy) that if he can lose 25 more lbs...he can be a dominating player, even in the AAC.

Meanwhile...Goodwin has to stop being a turnover machine (5 turnovers and just 1 assist for the starting point guard) as he gets so lackadaisical with the ball as he gets picked clean or his lazy passes are easily taken/deflected by the opponent.
