Well everyone keeps saying it is hard to beat a team 3 times in a season so I guess it would be automatic for us.

Won't Cincy be in the same half as us? I think we would see them in the semi if we both get that far.

Houston up by 20 on East Carolina with less than 3 to go...so looking like it'll be ECU or UCF vs SMU.

No. They have tiebreaker on Temple (according to the AAC website) making them the 3 seed and Temple the 4th.

We win a nail-biter against Temple and face Cincy in the final.

you want to have Cinn and UConn on the other side of the bracket - that is very good news for us. I helps to be the Conference friggin champion.
