Our game against MTSU on Saturday is GIGANTIC as far as potential seeding is concerned.

[CMJ]

I'd definitely like to play FAU again. Not to mention a 4-1 finish would be 11-7 in league play, an improvement over the last couple of seasons.

[CMJ]

UALR - no chance.

I wouldn't think WKU would get in, even in that scenario. They'd probably be a top 2-3 seed in the NIT though.

[CMJ]

How about a shout out to Troy. That's 9 straight wins for them. Are they peaking too soon...or is this like destiny? I suppose we'll get an indication when they play WKU on Saturday.

Louisville losing by 33 last night and the fact that Georgia is 0-9 in the SEC doesn't help Western's case any. Their wins aren't as impressive as USA's last season...and USA didn't have some of these BAD losses...Houston by 9 and Florida State by 13 is OK, but Murray State by 28, Evansville by 32 and Mississippi State by 28...three teams who are only middle of the road in their own conferences isn't going to impress the committee.
