I couldn't help but take notice

upset 10th ranked LaTech. It looks like the WKU women are going to be a tough group to contend with!

The Belt is definitely strong in BOTH mens and womens basketball(even if LA Tech left). This is an awesome conference.

Huge win for WKU's woman program given that the coach last year was fired before the season ended.

However, the men's team does not appear to be as strong as the preseason polls projected. WKU lost its best player (Tudor Pandov) on Saturday for the season with a torn ACL and MCL and All-America candidate Chris Marcus (recovering from off season surgery) shows no sign of playing anytime soon. I think that most Hilltopper fans thought that we would stroll through the Sun Belt this year. However, right now ULL has to be the favorites to win the Sun Belt title. Also, most Topper fans believe that UNT is an upcoming program that will be competing for a basketball title in the next couple of years. Your program has made termendous strides in the past 18 months. I hope UNT's adminstration has the fore sight to keep your current coach at UNT for many years to come. Good luck during the upcoming season.

I think Western Kentucky is still gonna be tough to take down. Yes you got destroyed by Arizona, but the Wildcats are AWESOME this year.

Lafayette is definitely your biggest challenger. I think we're another per or two down. We're another year or two away.
