Wichita State ascendant right now, while Temple is trending the other direction.

Mashburn out?

These are arguably the two hottest teams in the league right now.

Would low key like to see Wichita State win this one. Get them on a good 2025-26 trajectory, push fau basketball back to the cellar and we play FAU sooner.

For the sake of the conference, we really need Wichita State and Temple to get back to what they once were. This could be a 3-4 bid conference if they got their crap together.

Passionately, 3,000% agree on all of the above.

I'm a Shocker fan tonight.

same...though I'm not rooting for FAU to go back to being a spare. the conference has four programs with final four appearances...Temple, WSU, Memphis and FAU. it'd be great for us if they were all competitive and winning big non-con games. add in UAB keeping Kennedy around and maybe some return of form for Tulsa and Charlotte, both of whom have some good hoops history, and the AAC is back in the conversation as a top middie conference

Shockers next three games are tough: Tulane, UAB, and Mean Green.

CMJ · February 21

Yeah, if WSU takes two of three, they're really gonna announce they're a threat to steal the autobid come March.

Lots of things to look for as we enter the final stretch:

Shocker's momentum vs. a solid Tulane club. Green Wave have won 5 of last 7 (Memphis, Mean Green)
Can UAB hold serve (like us?)
FAU was on a roll of their own, until they just lost to WS. How do they recover against the Tigers?

FAU and Temple, we need you today.

FAU got smoked.
