CUSA teams have a much tougher road this year to finish in the Top 30 in RPI (almost guarantees an at-large NCAA invite).

Last year, CUSA had two teams finish in the Top 30 in RPI (#20 Memphis, #28 USM).

Key is winning road games vs high RPI teams....and right now, there are not many in CUSA this season.

(Believe 2 years ago, CUSA finished with 7 teams ranked in the Top 100).

I would love to see USM get some respect in the polls, but to be honest after our trips to the NCAA Tourney in our history, I am really ready for USM to actually win one of them. I hope we win the conference and we can beat Memphis if we play well.
