RE: CUSA scores and standings 2/1
Nice win by UAB tonight on the road. Wasn't pretty but it's progress. Good production from Lavender and Sullivan in an off night for Bryant and Darling. That's the kind of bench play we're going to need.
A win over ODU on the road will go a long way in getting us back in the thick of things at the top of CUSA.
UTSA is trying to show that win over UAB is no fluke. The UTSA vs WKU game this Saturday now becomes much more interesting.

RE: CUSA scores and standings 2/1
Lots of games left to be played but a 4 seed is within our reach as long as we don't have another WTF loss like UTSA.
We probably have an outside shot at a 3 seed depending on how ODU does from here out.
It seems like we have 2 clear top tier teams, MTSU & WKU. Then the next 6 teams are all sort of fighting for the next 4 seeds.
We have top 2-3 talent but we are not top 2-3 in the standings.
ODU is sort of like us but without as many losses. They have played a weak schedule so they are not really battle tested. But, they are the favorite to claim the 3 seed.
I really thought we had a decent chance to be 8-2 right now instead of 6-4.
Curios to see where Kenpoms computer has the season playing out. For the top 8 teams I mean.
I think our dream scenario is only losing 2 more of the next 8. And really, 4 more losses shouldn't surprise anyone.
Can we get a top 4 seed with 3 more losses?

Good to see UTSA beat Marshall. Makes me feel a tiny bit better about that loss... not much better, but a little.
2nd half 3pt D improved if you don't look at all the missed, wide open 3s by the 49ers.
