AAC Men's Tourney

[UNTLifer]

Wichita State takes down USF 73-68.

Charlotte vs. FAU up next.

[CMJ]

FAU having trouble putting Charlotte away.

[CMJ]

Owls defeat Charlotte 64-59.

I doubt Tulsa will do us a favor and take out Temple, but a guy can hope.

[BigChiefGMG]

Settle and Stanford killed us the other day in Philly. They’re carrying Temple again here tonight and dominating. Imagine if we have to face that and Mashburn Jr tomorrow 

[greenminer]

Potential tournament run of Temple, UAB, then Memphis.

If we win in that scenario, it would be an incredible run.  Would love to stack that up against other 3-day tournament runs in our history.

[CMJ]

Tulsa hanging in there - I wouldn't count them out yet.

[CMJ]

Garcia with the big shot to put the Golden Hurricanes up four.

[CMJ]

Huge comeback win for Tulsa.

[greenminer]

Man, Tulsa goes into tomorrow with back-to-back dubs over Shockers and Owls.

In any other scenario, I'd feel good that we match up favorably with Tulsa, but they are coming in HOT.

I hope our guys are amped for this! Don't be of a "just another day" mindset.

If they play like this, they don't deserve to win. 

This is TOURNEY TIME!!

ECU is much likelier to be a test for UAB that UTSA.  Hopefully the Pirates can get on track.

[BleedingGreen]

ECU -UTSA is an ugly game.

Hot topic: athletes fall into this trap, frequently, because we coach them into a (supposed) winning day-to-day routine.  The plus side is, you stay focused and consistent.  The side effect is, you don't ever really get hyped up for any specific opponent.

Discuss.

[Matt from A700]

ECU eeks out the 70-65 win over UTSA. Honestly ECU would have been my most-preferred potential semifinal opponent.

One down, two to go?

Interesting to see that, outside of the Memphis and UNT games, Blazer's only other loss was ECU.

Shockers look good early.

[CMJ]

Tied at half. Let's go WSU!

[CMJ]

If only Wichita State could keep control of the ball they'd be sitting pretty.  Feel like they have 20 turnovers right now.

If you remember, thats what Memphis did to our guards. That's one of the reasons we didn't win IMO.

[CMJ]

Memphis holds on by three.

[emmitt01]

Memphis looks a lot more human after watching this game

[Mean Green Newz]

Wichita State is a really good team and matches up with Memphis well.
