Or, we could stop whining and just go win the games. That's an option.

RE: Memphis' Regular Season Finale Moved To Houston, No Additional Games Added
Lots of clueless forecasters in this thread. Or the same couple, over and over.
Here's how we got screwed that Laird isn't admitting. There is no reason we couldn't reschedule the @Houston game. Houston has 7 days with no games. We could EASILY reschedule that game without burdening them. Sampson just doesn't want to do it. And the league is letting him get away with it.
So, yeah, they agreed before the season on moving games that COULD NOT be rescheduled. But that agreement did not cover games that the coach WOULD NOT reschedule.

Sampson, he's a dead man
Cincinnati, DEAD
USF, DEAD
Houston, DEAD
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

We were screwed but it does give us the opportunity to get a big road win at UH. Then beat UH again in the tourney. That might get us in.

Of course Houston and Wichita state don’t want to reschedule. They both have more to lose than we do.
Wichita state is in the field unless they lose both games to smu. If smu beats Wichita state twice then smu is in.
If we win last 3 including in Houston we still out. Been laying the scenario out for weeks.
First off the SMU/Wichita games aren't rescheduled. Second Wichita state isn't in the field right now. Nor would SMU get in if they beat Wichita St.
Lastly a Memphis team with 3 straight road wins one of those being at Houston and if they win 2 games in the conf tourney (if it's played) would probably get in.
Aint no probably about it...
If Memphis wins the next 3 they are absolutely in.

Wichita has stated they want to reschedule. From what's being reported Penny doesn't want to play 4 road games in a short time frame (understandable). Wichita wants and needs the game vs you guys or one of the two vs SMU. WSU will likely finish with 7 games not rescheduled and WSU never went on pause themselves...
This year is such a cluster.

Ok, we know we got screwed. Now just play the games, if we beat UH, they'll be wishing they had another chance at us. But don't overlook Cincy, they look pretty tough at home.

We should play Wich St , Monday Mar 1 in cincy, ohio.
Obviously, this is a neutral court. this would be day after memphis vs cincy game in cincy. After this game, wich st goes to New Orleans for mar 3 game with Tulane.
Memphis will fly to tampa for Mar 2 game with USF.
I know this will be difficult for both teams. But, from a memphis' perspective, there is no easy way to make up an eighteen day period of no games.

RE: Memphis' Regular Season Finale Moved To Houston, No Additional Games Added
Our road game at Houston is cancelled because of us. You think we should be rewarded with a home game, or worse, we should play 4 games in 8 days?
You've lost your minds.

RE: Memphis' Regular Season Finale Moved To Houston, No Additional Games Added
if the current schedule holds for the conference
wichita state and smu will only play 13 conference games out of 20
houston will play 17 and memphis 15
ucf will play the most with 18, east carolina the least with 12

RE: Memphis' Regular Season Finale Moved To Houston, No Additional Games Added
because of the disparity in conference games played
using that number to determine a conference playoff bracket
would be about as fair as the Vietnam draft lottery

RE: Memphis' Regular Season Finale Moved To Houston, No Additional Games Added
with the temple-wichita state game canceled
wichita state will have played 12 of 20 conference games
and if they win that 12th game at tulane, they win the conference
what a farce
we should have stopped playing after being 1-0 in the conference and be conference champs
