I'm always happy when we win but we make it seem much harder than it needs to be.

FAU beats La. Tech 63-61 after La. Tech had a 21 point lead. USM beats FIU 66-60.


Rice 37 Marshall 39
WKU 41 UNT 38

Agreed. We also need to be able to sustain our leads. Both ODU and Charlotte came back from being down against us.

Since both of these were on the road, hopefully these will be valuable lessons come post season.

I kno with no football season and basketball on a 12 game winning streak, your chances to come on the board with your doom and gloom has greatly diminished. So much that you have to try and spread your pessimism after victories.

Don't lose hope. They will lose one day and you can come back to gloat.

Two massive wins on the road this week. Go Blazers!

But what if we keep being clutch in the last 3 seconds?

And did anyone think La. Tech (2-3), UTEP (2-3), ODU (2-3) , and WKU (1-3) would all have losing records in CUSA play 5 games in? Crazy

Classic!

It is great that they are coming home for the next two games. Good to see that Auburn defeated Kentucky, today. I wonder if UABs RPI will improve.

Fixed it for you!

Couldn't be happier with where we are right now. I didn't predict 15-3 at this point. 5-0 in league with a head-to-head win against 4-1 MTSU. 3 games ahead of LT, UTEP, and ODU.

Hopefully we can take the regular season title and the CUSA tourney.

I know, right.

MT is probably the only other team really living up to expectations for the most part.

Well, at least these were two exciting games. We need to tighten up the substitution pattern a little bit. Need to keep as many "starters" on the floor as possible. That should help us sustain some of our leads better.

Marshall is exceeding expectations I believe.

Go Blazers!

Haha right. Doom and gloom all day.

With that being said, we are not significantly improved on the road this year. Improved, for sure. Significantly, not at all.

Just so we're clear: winning > losing.
