Oklahoma State trailing at half.  If they go down, our path to Vegas opens up.

That is of we can beat Alcorn State who's missing 4 players including 3 of their double digit scorers. We really need to start hitting shots.

Traitor? He went to Southeastern Oklahoma State for his bachelors and Oklahoma State for his masters. He came here for a paycheck. He left to WVU for a bigger paycheck. What is so traitorous about tha

Can confirm most likely 2 seed. AD has been planning on hosting at the Pit for the last week in case we didn’t win CUSA.

Just because it's open doesn't mean we can get there!

Down goes Clemson at home to Morehead State. UCF clobbered Florida at home. Good showing by the mid-majors so far. It's a shame Youngstown State couldn't pull out the win against Okie State.

If Michigan and OSU St. had gone down I would have loved this NIT.

Honestly, I want a shot at Oklahoma State. If we can get there, I'd love to see what our team can do against a Big 12 school. Santa Clara or SHSU is going to be tough too.

If we beat Sam we will get to play them!

I've watched all of 18 minutes of basketball from both these teams, but I think I'd rather play SHSU than Santa Clara

Getting your wish. It won’t be in Denton, right?

Have to wait for them to announce if it's Saturday or Sunday still.

They announced over the PA it would be Sunday as we were leaving the Pit.

 

Not sure what time though.

Other part of the bracket, and it doesn't mean anything unless we advance to Las Vegas, but two NIT games on tap today.

 

Michigan @ Vanderbilt

Cincinnati @ Hofstra

 

If the NCAA games on at the same time turn into routs, I may watch one or both of these.

I always visualized “knocking off” as throwing a ball at a target at the fair.  Knocking off simply meant success or winning.  No implication of an upset for me.  

I do see it as an upset. As in knocking X team off of their elevated pedestal. And I just wanted to make that clear at 3:30AM.

      MGN: Post game recap

      Really they didn’t even try. The stats back this up. Our RBs had 12 carries for 53 yards. That’s a respectable 4.4 yards per carry. Not amazing but solid enough to take a little pressure off the passing game. By comparison, TxSt averaged 4.6 but they ended up with over 200 yards because they stuck with the run. The running game didn’t struggle. Morris gave up on it before it could struggle because he doesn’t value the run game. Or he was so intimidated by a SunBelt team that he panicked?

      We picked the wrong quarterback

      The problem wasn’t the QB but rather the game plan. Or more specifically the head coach. I still don’t understand why you build your game plan around a rookie walk-on qb. They barely even tried to run the ball. The stat sheet shows 25 rushing attempts but around 6-7 of those were passing plays when the qb scrambled due to the breakdown of the pass blocking or that abortion of a WR pass with Young. Our RBs had 12 carries. Twelve. Stupid.

      MGN: Post game recap

      Run game definitely struggled. Observation from a lowly fan was the center's snaps were not crisp. There was the bad snap that hit the turf that Mestemaker recovered but there were several others that weren't on target that visibly caused timing to be off. Couple that with the DL regularly being in our backfield right after the snap and it's hard to run. I may be mixing games but I think even remember a TX State player practically meeting our RB at a hand-off. Mestemaker pulled it back and got taken down by a few defenders but there was just no room to get things going on the ground.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      If we struggle to another six win season then Morris has to go. Not a “hot seat” let’s see how year four goes.

      EM is the qb whisperer

      Untjim: Texas/Oklahoma doesn't produce great linemen anymore so we can't have great defenses. Me: how does UTSA and Texas State do it? Rick: defense Untjim: he doesn't want to hear it Hear what? Y'all are simultaneously saying the state doesn't produce great linemen which is necessary for a good defense but then say other G5 teams in our same state with our same pool of players are succeeding because of defense. Again, if they can do it why can't we? What's their excuse?
