I guess taking vacation days are overrated anyway. :lol:

WTF was that all about? Walked in with some guests and the place was 1/3 empty at the start. Filled in for the most part, but this fashionably late crap is bizarre.

Here is what we need to happen to win the AAC. Not an unlikely series of events either.

SMU beats Louisville at home.
Memphis beats Cincinnati Thursday Night.
SMU wins @ Memphis in the last game of the year.

That would create a three way tie.

SMU would be 2-0 against both UConn and Memphis for tie breaker purposes.

Cincinnati, Louisville, and SMU would all be 1-1 against each other.

Also, it's no guarantee that Louisville will beat UConn in their last game of their regular season. So if we win out we could be tied with Cincinnati for the conference lead. I have no idea how that tie breaker would work between SMU and Cincinnati.

If we win out and are tied with Cincinnati, we win the tie breaker. First is head to head. We split. Then you compare results with next highest team. We both split with Louisville. We would be 2-0 against both UConn and Memphis. I think Cincy split with them. So we would win. Get #1 seed in tourney.
