Interesting and correct. Although if that were the case, I think the Access bowl would still be a possibility, so it would matter.

Here here! It was the first notice I had that we were even mathematically alive. Made the last few weeks much more enjoyable. Thanks!

I looked back on your recent posts: 7 of 11 were to make a derogatory post about me. Most were one liners. Most of your other posts were negative in nature and very brief such as “snicker”.
I’m not sure you can write a reasoned paragraph regarding a subject that doesn’t involve trying to insult a person or requires thinking skills.
You called this a mean and hate post yet in this post call me a “dick”:
“Not going to respond to this inane post because you obviously haven’t read the thread and have no idea as to who posted what. And even if you had, I’m not sure you would be able to make a sensible post. Do that and get back with me. Or better yet, read a book by John Wooden on basketball fundamentals and then try to make an intelligent basketball post.”
You are in cahoots with
TigerNole
MemphisTigerPwr
Between the 3 of you, I have been neg repped 72 negative points.
I have all of you on ignore but there is a pattern of quoting the others posts so I will see them. So when someone calls you out on one of your dumb azz one liners, you start calling them dicks. Really not “mean and hateful” are you? Your actions and lies speak for themselves as well as the other two to a lesser extent.
Got this off my chest. Done with all 3 of you. I wish we had a block button here but unfortunately we don’t. No matter what you say or how many times you neg rep me I will not respond.

Houston (2-0) loses 2 conf games before they come to town
@ Navy, @ SMU, home vs Temple, USF, Tulane -- is there 2 losses in there???
Tulane (1-1) gets to 4 conf losses
home vs SMU, ECU, Navy, @ Tulsa, @ USF, @ Houston
Navy (1-2) gets to 4 conf losses
@UCF, @ Cincy, @ Tulane, home vs Tulsa, Houston
Pretty easy to see Navy losing 2 or 3 more games, and Tulane losing at least 2 more (at Houston and USF). Probably too far back to catch Houston, but there's a reason they call it "Coogin it". Things could get a little interesting if UH loses in Annapolis on Saturday.
MONEY!!!!

I am glad I didn't comment when this thread was posted. I was certainly of the mind of impossible.
Unbelievable that we made it here after how things began.

That was as unlikely and improbable a run to the division championship as you'll ever see. Incredible, unbelievable, and beautiful.

Really proud to be a Tiger fan today. We very easily could have thrown in the towel a month ago, but these guys fought through every single game. Win or lose they have my respect.

CMN is pretty special. I know that we had to have some luck to go to the AAC championship game, but still, CMN is a good coach.
We have a very legit program and no one is going to say that our program is now a 'graveyard' for coaches anymore.

RE: The impossible could happen?
And when we beat UCF next Saturday, I am going to assume we will need some strong luck to make it to an Access Bowl game. We will probably need Boise State and Fresno State to lose a game.

No matter what we don't get it, Utah St. would get it if they beat Boise St.

I also thought the Tigers chances as the West winner was slim and none. I didn't think it would happen. I salute the staff and team for the way they kept fighting. GO TIGERS.

Nice how the dominoes fell and our Tigers did their part.
Beat UCF next week, win an outright conference championship!

RE: The impossible could happen?
I think it's worth posting again, now that it's happened. UNTIL NOW, no team has ever won a divisional title @ 5-3 in any 12 team conference we've ever been in. This is the first.
