Have to be good news if Jon Rothstein or Jeff Goodman haven’t reported anything.

Good point.

I have to admit, with the more up-tempo/pressing style that Kennedy runs, I feel like he should play a much longer bench. We are very short team in terms of the rotation, which leaves us very susceptible to any injuries

Maybe there is another team in CUSA with a strong enough resume to get an at-large bid but that team is definitely not UAB.

The ones with two have UAB with the auto-bid and WKU as an at large.

WKU is the only team in CUSA with any shot at getting an at large bid without winning the conference tournament.

I would think so. WKU can survive a road loss and a lack of a autobid, however, it will not be a given.

I don't think they can lose again. For some reason their NET rating is dragging a bit. If they make a run to the conference finals/semis and lose to Marshall or UAB, it probably would be enough. If they lose another game during the season, it means they lose one more in the tournament as well if they need an at large. I just don't see how they could make it at that point.
