[UNTLifer]

N/M.  I'm torn because I want our conference mates to win, but I have a real had time liking that team.

We should Fed Ex them our condolences.

Looks that way.  Just a lackluster 2nd half by the Tigers, but I feel the same way you do.

[Hunter Green]

Looks like we and uab will need to carry the torch.

GO MEAN GREEN!

This is pretty bad.  We need other AAC teams to be successful in the tourney if we're ever going to become a regular multi-bid conference.  Memphis was definitely missing Tyrese Hunter's outside shooting, as Haggerty was only 1 for 8 from beyond the arc.

[NorthTexasWeLove]

Haggerty was a shell of his mid season self the last 2 or 3 weeks. 

Not really glad to seem them lose. Certainly not heartbroken either..

[CMJ]

He just put up 42 in a game last week.

Yes, I'm aware. Outside of that game he's been pretty inefficient of late.

Memphis's performance makes it much less likely that an AAC team will get another 5 seed in the near future.

You'd think. But the committee keeps dangling off the MWC's meat...

SDSU did just make the Final a couple of years ago.

Tough for me. I love every Memphis loss then I remember that’s our signature win for the year.

Good to see you back ArkStFan.  Will you be in Denton Sunday ?

It would have been good for the conference if they won, however they did not look ready to play that game, they looked confused defensively, were out rebounded, and Colorado state did a good job keeping them outside.

They try to out-athlete everybody.   Once you match up with them and frustrate them enough their coaches don't have enough strategy to adjust.

One bid conference for the first time and a first round exit. Hopefully this is as low as it gets for AAC basketball (while we're in this league).

Nope I’m currently in North Central Arkansas during house repair and renovation so two hours longer than coming from Little Rock

Memphis always has and always will be garbage. Easily our biggest rival in the AAC
