With Rice losing tonight and us beating USM, that puts us one game behind both schools with one to go.
We hold the tie breaker over USM and if we beat Houston, we have the tie breaker over Rice.
USM has UTEP left and Rice has Tulsa left, both games should be losses for them.
Sure, @Houston will be tough, but we have shown that we can hang around with anyone in this conference and if we can finally put together a complete game, we have a shot..Time to step up and play the game of the season to get out of the cellar.
A win gives us a great shot at finishing 10th, nice to pass two teams at the wire, and gives a great shot of playing Tulane or Marshall in the first round of the tourney, two teams we stack up well against.
I know, I know, thats a lot of Ifs, Ands, and Buts...but we have hope and something to play for. Lets go down to Houston and show what we can do for a complete game.
Go Ponies!!!!!!!!!
