0 ability to maintain momentum

we will be in the 2nd pod and no shot at a bye in the tourney

[RBTX]

Such a frustrating way to end before pod play

Not yey. UAB has to win.

I can't take this. This is terrible basketball. I just turned the game off before done for the first time this season.

I said USM up big and UAB was winning by 10. Now UAB is losing.

Sigh

oh my bad.. i was glance reading while watching. hopefully uab loses

[Harry]

Tough loss...

[bstnsportsfan3]

FIU hit everything and we played a 6 man rotation. hopefully we can sneak into the top pod.. get some players healthy and make a run. This team is capable of winning this tournament if healthy but a lot of work to do between now and then

[RiseUNT]

Can't win games with 4 players playing 40 minutes each. One being a former walkon another being a freshman.

FIU 69 ----------- NT 59

 

Final

[Harry]

Feels like a good season sort of went sour at the end.

[RiseUNT]

Time to watch the uab game.

[Andrew]

Let’s go WKU! Gets us in the top pod! Hopefully then Woolridge and Duffy will be ready next week.

[meangreen2016]

Soooo we need either Southern miss or UAB to lose, right? Southern Miss is destroying UTEP so that's not going to happen. Only hope right now is that UAB chokes. We'll see.  

[risinggreen]

Hard to win with probably two of our three most important players out. Get healthy.

I don't think that would be UAB choking.  If UAB wins that's WKU somehow not showing up...the Toppers should win that game, even down at half.

Wku is the better team and at home.

That’s a bit strong. You witnessed Benford ball???

It is not. And so because Benford ball was so bad, we should just be satisfied with second half collapses and mediocrity since "Well, at least it's not as bad as it used to be." Go ahead and keep being satisfied with average, happy clappers

[meangreen2016]

Shoot. I didn't even look for where WKU was in the standings, y'all are right. My B. 

[CMJ]

I'll probably create a thread about standings after all the games today, but right now ODU is about to clinch the 1 spot in Pod play.  

[GrandGreen]

The key is getting Woolridge and Duffy back before the conference tourney.  That is more important than the bonus games.
